Iowa E. coli Outbreak Linked to Taco John's
Iowa joins the states involved in E. coli outbreaks linked to Mexican fast food restaurants. The Black Hawk County Department of Health is investigating an E. coli outbreak linked to a Taco John's located at 6210 University Avenue, Cedar Falls, Iowa. At least 33 people may have contracted E. coli infections. Of these, 14 were hospitalized.
Minnesota is investigating an E. coli outbreak linked to a Taco John's in Albert Lea that may be associated with the Iowa outbreak, but the E. coli outbreak linked to Taco Bell restaurants in the Northeast does not appear to be related. As with the Northeest outbreak, health officials have not found the source of the outbreak but suspect fresh produce.
