Salmonella Outbreak Spreads in Belgium

The Food Safety Agency in Belgium has announced an unprecedented outbreak of salmonella infection linked to a poultry farm, resulting in at least 306 people being infected after consuming contaminated eggs. The agency indicated that the cases appeared after the bacteria were detected at the farm, leading to the recall of eggs from the markets and the complete closure of the farm, along with the culling of the poultry, following the emergence and spread of the infections. The agency has not reported any deaths, but the actual number of affected individuals may be higher. There are warnings that some eggs may still remain in consumers' kitchens, as cooking can reduce the risk of infection. Salmonella can cause symptoms such as diarrhea, fever, and abdominal cramps.
