Salmonella Associated with Los Tres Amigos

At least 6 people who ate at Los Tres Amigos in Wood River, Illinois, contracted Salmonella infections (salmonellosis), according to the Madison County Health Department. Health officials believe that this Illinois Salmonella outbreak may be connected to the current nationwide outbreak of Salmonella Saintpaul associated with tomatoes because one of the cases has been confirmed to have a genetic fingerprint that matches the national outbreak pattern.

Most of the 613 cases of Salmonella Saintpaul are not associated with eating at a specific restaurant. However, another cluster of Salmonella Saintpaul cases in Illinois has been associated with a restaurant, Adobo Grill. Read about the Adobo Grill Salmonella Saintpaul cases.
