More than 600 people have been infected with Salmonella as of July 14, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) says as it is investigating eight outbreaks across the country.
Salmonella has been traced to live poultry and pet chicks and ducklings, health officials say.
The last update on the investigation was early last month. Since then another outbreak has been identified, bringing the number up to eight, while 287 more people have reported being sick in 45 states.
