An outbreak of food-borne illness linked to romaine lettuce has spread to four states and sickened at least 23 people, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said.
Tennessee is the latest state to confirm a case of E.coli 0145, which has already sickened 10 people in Michigan, eight in Ohio and four in New York. The confirmed cases rose to 23, the CDC said Wednesday, from the 19 it reported last week. The agency is also reporting seven more probable cases which have not been confirmed yet.
No deaths have been reported so far.
Investigators have linked the illnesses to tainted romaine lettuce grown on an Arizona farm. Two distributors – Freshway Foods and Vaughan Foods – have recalled bagged lettuce products.
