E. coli-Related Death in Alabama
The E. coli outbreak linked to Little Rosie’s Taqueria, a Huntsville, Alabama restaurant, claimed the life of a woman yesterday, according to a story on WAFF48News. Our thoughts and prayers are with the family. Epidemiological evidence, including statistical analysis and victim interviews, pointed to shredded lettuce served June 28-29 as the most likely source of the E. coli outbreak, Health officials believe the shredded lettuce was contaminated with E. coli bacteria by a Little Rosie’s Taqueria food handler.
Earlier in June of this year, an E. coli outbreak linked to the Captain’s Galley in China Grove, North Carolina claimed the life of Faye Sides, a dearly loved aunt who loved gardening and was an active member of her church. An investigation of the outbreak revealed that a goat had been slaughtered in the restaurant’s kitchen the night before she ate there.
Last summer, fresh spinach tainted with E. coli claimed the life of a dearly loved mother and grandmother. Please see the WCCO News story, "Family Fights for Food Safety after E. coli Death."
