Two people, one in New Hampshire and a second in New York, have died, 16 hospitalized and overall 28 sickened in an outbreak of E. coli that may be linked to ground beef distributed on the East Coast, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention says.
As of Oct. 28, there are 28 persons whose illness appear to be associated with this outbreak, all but three from the Northeast. Eighteen of the 28 are from New England, says the CDC's Lola Scott Russell. There have been two cases of hemolytic uremic syndrome associated with this outbreak.
