Michigan State Univeristy E. coli Outbreak Update
At least 10 Michigan State University (MSU) students have been hospitalized with E. coli O157:H7 infections. The Ingham County Health Department has reported that 4 additional students may also have E. coli infections.
If the food source of this MSU E. coli outbreak is found, there may be a number of parties that could be held liable for damages, which could include medical expenses, pain and suffering and loss of income. If a specific food source is not found, epidemiological evidence alone may be sufficient to hold parties liable. Epidemiological evidence includes interviews with those sickened, an analysis of food purchased with the sickened students’ MSU cards, and other evidence that would point to a common source of illness.
