RAW OYSTERS LINKED TO US SALMONELLA OUTBREAK, WITH OVER A DOZEN SICK IN NY, NJ, CT. (PHOTO).


 Raw oysters linked to US salmonella outbreak, with over a dozen sick in NY, NJ, CT

Health officials report a Salmonella outbreak linked to raw oysters has sickened dozens of people across the U.S., including residents in New York, New Jersey, and Connecticut.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) said Tuesday that 64 people have been infected with the same strain of Salmonella, with 26 cases reported since early November. Hospitalizations have been higher than expected compared with typical Salmonella outbreaks.

State counts show seven cases in New York, six in New Jersey, and two in Connecticut, while Pennsylvania has reported the highest number with 10 cases. Among those surveyed, nearly three-quarters said they had eaten raw oysters in the week before becoming ill. The CDC and the Food and Drug Administration are investigating to determine if a common source can be identified. No recall has been issued.

The CDC advises that oysters should be thoroughly cooked before consumption, noting that condiments like hot sauce or lemon juice do not kill the bacteria. Salmonella cannot be detected by sight alone.

Salmonella infections can cause fever, diarrhea, nausea, vomiting, and abdominal pain. While most healthy individuals recover, young children, the elderly, and people with weakened immune systems may experience severe complications. In rare cases, the bacteria can enter the bloodstream, leading to serious conditions such as arterial infections, endocarditis, or arthritis.
