In the wake of a recall by Iowa's Wright County Egg involving a dozen brands of eggs last week, California's NuCal Foods is expanding a recall of its eggs as more illnesses may be associated with the outbreak.
Los Angeles County health officials said at least 266 people in California have been infected with egg-related Salmonella. Seven cases were identified in Minnesota, Food Safety News reported.
The Centers for Disease Control said it had seen a four-fold increase in cases of Salmonella Enteritidis with the same "genetif fingerprint" or pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE) pattern, reported to the agency through PulseNet, a national network of laboratories the CDD coordinates, Food Safety News reported.
