The CDC reports a troubling E. coli outbreak linked to bagged organic carrots from Grimmway Farms that has affected 39 individuals across 18 states. The recall, initiated after one death and 15 hospitalizations, concerns various brands sold since August. Consumers are urged to dispose of potentially contaminated products. Symptoms may arise three to four days after consumption, with vulnerable populations at heightened risk. This incident underscores ongoing challenges in controlling E. coli infections, despite experts maintaining that the overall food supply remains safe.
