At least three children have been hospitalized with E. coli illnesses in Tennessee’s Knox County after consuming raw milk. Health officials are investigating McBee Dairy Farm and collected samples from the cattle and their milk on Thursday. Local television station WATE reports that Tennesseans can legally drink raw milk if they own the cow and that McBee is a privately owned cow-share operation. A cease-and-desist order has stopped the farm’s sale of raw cow and goat milk, and the health department will contact anyone who may have purchased McBee milk.
