Massachusetts E. coli Outbreak
Lawyer and Lawsuit
Massachusetts E. coli Outbreak Linked to Fairbank Farms and E. coli Cases in 12 Other States
Health officials have linked eight Massachusetts E. coli cases to recalled Fairbank Farms ground beef. These Massachusetts E. coli cases are part of a larger, multi-state E. coli outbreak that has sickened at least 28 people in 12 states. Three have developed hemolytic uremic syndrome (HUS), a type of kidney failure, and two have died.
The Fairbank Farms recall involves 545,699 pounds of fresh ground beef products that were sold to Shaws, Price Chopper, Trader Joe’s, Wild Harvest, Lancaster, BJ’s, Giant and Ford Brothers.
Some of the Fairbank Farms ground beef products were repackaged or relabeled by the retailers, which could make the retailers liable, along with Fairbank Farms, to the E. coli victims.
A separate recall less than a week prior also involved cases of E. coli O157:H7. The FSIS announced on Oct. 26 that South Shore Meats, Inc., of Brockton, Massachusetts, recalled more than 1,000 pounds of fresh ground beef patties. The recall followed reports of more than 20 students and adults from Lincoln Middle School in Lincoln, Rhode Island who became sick after visiting Camp Bournedale, a nature camp in Plymouth, Mass., in mid-October. Samples of the meat served at the camp showed the presence of E. coli O157:H7, according to the Massachusetts DPH.
