A five-year-old girl from New Mexico has become the 36th confirmed victim of a Salmonella Bredeney outbreak linked to contaminated peanut products. In its latest outbreak update – published October 15 – the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reported 35 cases in 19 states, not including New Mexico. But on Friday the New Mexico Department of Health announced that a five-year-old girl from Roosevelt County had contracted a Salmonella infection linked to the outbreak. The girl “ate multiple products containing peanut butter,” according to the press release. The agency did not specify which products these were.
