Drug-resistant Salmonella Hits Dozens Across U.S.
By Aaron Gould Sheinin
 

Oct. 17, 2018 -- At least 92 people in 29 states have been infected with a drug-resistant strain of salmonella, and raw chicken products appear to be the culprit, the CDC said Wednesday.

The agency thus far has not been able to identify a supplier responsible for the outbreak, which reaches from Hawaii to Maine. The CDC says laboratory evidence shows raw chicken products from a variety of sources were contaminated with SalmonellaInfantis.

Of the 92 who have been sickened, 21 have been hospitalized. No deaths have been reported.
