Concerns over CDC response to E. coli outbreak

A fatal outbreak of E. coli contamination that recently hospitalized at least 26 people in the U.S. and Canada — including two in Connecticut — shows that the federal government is failing to adequately protect people from consuming recalled foods, lawmakers and consumer advocates say. The outbreak that sickened the two state residents and 16 others nationally, including one person in California who died, was probably caused by eating “leafy greens,” but a specific green couldn’t be identified, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reported. The Canadian government’s Public Health Agency announced on Dec. 11 that the outbreak was linked to romaine lettuce.
