People and Beef Test Positive for E. coli O157:H7 in Illinois

We contacted the Illinois Department of Public Health (IDPH) today regarding its investigation into illnesses that may be associated with American Foods Group, LLC ground beef products. In October IDPH began an investigation of 2 cases of suspected E. coli poisoning.

IDPH tested both the sickened people and ground beef products found in the home. Kimberly Parker, IDPH Communications Manager, said that, after confirming both the people and the beef tested positive for E. coli O157:H7, IDPH alerted the USDA. Prompted by the reports of these cases of E. coli O157:H7, American Foods Group recalled about 48 tons of ground beef products.
