One person has died and 86 have been put into the hospital in the latest outbreak of salmonella connected to pet poultry, the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) reported on Wednesday.
The CDC says 368 people have reported getting sick since May 20, bringing this year’s total to 465 poultry-related salmonella cases reported in 42 states. That’s about twice as many as were reported at the same time last year, the CDC said.
