outbreaks
Foodborne illness outbreaks happen when contaminated food makes multiple people sick. We track the latest outbreaks and public health investigations from the CDC, FDA, USDA, and state health departments so you can understand emerging threats and protect yourself. Our coverage explains what foods are involved, how the outbreak started, and what steps health officials are taking to stop it.
