Wisconsin health authorities have recalled eggs following a salmonella outbreak affecting 65 individuals across nine states. The Wisconsin Department of Health Services reported 42 cases within the state, with eggs believed to be sourced from a Wisconsin farm. The contaminated products were distributed in Wisconsin, Illinois, and Michigan in containers marked either Milo's Poultry Farms or Tony's Fresh Market.

The CDC confirmed that the outbreak has led to 24 hospitalizations but no fatalities as of Friday. Impacted states include Wisconsin, Illinois, Michigan, Minnesota, Iowa, Virginia, Colorado, Utah, and California. The recall encompasses all egg types and carton sizes sold under the aforementioned labels regardless of expiration dates. Officials urge those who purchased the eggs not to consume them but to dispose of them immediately. Symptoms of salmonella infection, such as diarrhea, abdominal pain, fever, and vomiting, should prompt individuals to seek medical advice. (This story was generated by Newser's AI chatbot.
