20/7/2016

0 Comments

 
The FSA is continuing to work closely with PHE and local authorities to investigate an outbreak of E.coli O157.
Latest figures from Public Health England suggest that the outbreak is now subsiding, but work is on-going to identify the cause.

​The outbreak has been linked to eating mixed salad leaves, including rocket leaves, however a specific food source has not been confirmed at this stage. As a precaution, the FSA is reminding people of the importance of good hand and food hygiene practices. All vegetables, including salads, intended to be eaten raw should be thoroughly washed unless they are specifically labelled ‘ready to eat.'
