Similar E. coli Outbreaks Persist in U.S. and Canada
A multistate Escherichia coli O157:H7 outbreak that first became apparent in November has continued into 2018.
The outbreak might be associated with romaine lettuce and appears to be similar to another outbreak occurring in Canada. During the last weeks of 2017, the U.S. E. coli outbreak sickened at least 17 individuals in 13 states.
