The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recently published a new webpage with information about a persistent, multidrug-resistant strain of Salmonella Infantis known as REPJFX01, which has been the cause of many illnesses and outbreaks.
Persistent strains are those causing illnesses over months or years, despite investigation and prevention efforts. The new webpage includes information about when and where illnesses caused by REPJFX01 have occurred, sources that have been identified, and detailed laboratory data.
