Ground Beef Linked to Virgina Boy Scout Camp Outbreak Recalled
S&S Foods of Azusa, Calif., has recalled 153,630 pounds of ground beef due to possible contamination with E. coli O157:H7. The Virginia Department of Health linked the E. coli found in the ground beef to the same strain that sickened dozens at the boy scout camp in Goshen, Virginia.
One person remains hospitalized after developing hemolytic uremic syndrome, a severe kidney complication.
The USDA’s rated this recall “Class I,” which means that there is a “health hazard situation where there is a reasonable probability that the use of the product will cause serious, adverse health consequences or death.”
