Cavi Brand Papayas Linked to Salmonella Outbreak, 71 Sick

The FDA and CDC name Cavi brand papayas from Agroson’s LLC as the likely source of the ongoing Salmonella outbreak linked to fresh, whole papayas imported from Mexico. The outbreak has sickened at least 71 people from eight states. 27 people have been hospitalized.

According to the FDA, traceback information shows that Agroson’s LLC of Bronx, NY is the “exclusive distributor” of the imported papayas that likely made people sick in this outbreak. The agency asked the company to recall its Cavi papayas, but a recall has not yet been issued. The CDC says that consumers are safe to eat all other brands of fresh, whole papayas imported from Mexico, with the exception of Cavi brand papayas.

Update: In its final update on September 12, 2019, the CDC reported 81 people sick in nine states, 27 of them hospitalized, and said consumers no longer need to avoid Cavi brand whole papayas imported from Mexico.
