E.coli outbreak latest as 200 cases confirmed and new food brand affected

A number of food manufacturers have recalled sandwiches, wraps and salads sold in major supermarkets and retail chains over fears they are linked to an outbreak of E.coli that has left people across the UK in hospital.

On June 14, major food manufacturers issued product recall notices relating to a variety of sandwiches, wraps and salads. Retailers have also stressed that these products should not be consumed and customers should return them to the store they were purchased from for a full refund. Of the total, some 147 patients are located in England, 27 in Wales, 35 in Scotland and two in Northern Ireland although it is believed they were infected while in England. UKHSA said confirmed cases associated with this outbreak are expected to rise as further samples undergo whole genome sequencing.
