Key points
CDC, FDA, and public health officials in three states are investigating a multistate outbreak of E. coli infections linked to raw cheddar cheese sold by Raw Farm, LLC. Over half of the illnesses are in children under the age of 5. While the investigation is ongoing, if you have any of these affected cheeses in your home, consider not eating them.
Where sick people live
This map shows where the 7 people in this E.coli outbreak lived.
This outbreak may not be limited to the states with known illnesses, and the true number of sick people is likely much higher than the number reported. This is because many people recover without medical care and are not tested for E. coli.
