The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) issued a food safety alert regarding a multistate outbreak of Salmonella Hadar infections.
28 people infected with the outbreak strain of Salmonella Hadar have been reported from 12 states. Two people were hospitalized and no deaths have been reported.
Laboratory data, interviews with ill people, and traceback information suggest that ground turkey is the likely source of this outbreak.
On April 10, USDA-FSIS issued a public health alert for approximately 211,407 pounds of raw ground turkey products produced by Plainville Brands, LLC. These products were sold under the brand names of “Nature’s Promise,” Wegman” and “Plainville Farms.” Products are labeled with dates 1/1/21–1/10/21 and the establishment number “P244” inside the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s mark of inspection.
These products are no longer available in stores, but could still be in your freezer.
CDC is advising people not to eat, serve, or sell any of the ground turkey products.
