Detroit -
In what is being called a medical mystery, 14 patients in the same unit in one of Detroit, Michigan's largest hospitals all came down with Salmonella infections. Officials are saying the illnesses are not food-related.
The number of Salmonella illnesses in several Washington state counties has now jumped to 90 cases, prompting the Washington State Department of Health to call in The CDC. The USDA/FSIS has also issued a public health alert.
Canadian consumers are being warned of a possible risk of Salmonella infection from handling, cooking or eating frozen, raw, breaded poultry parts. The warning comes after tracking 44 cases of Salmonellosis across the country.
