SUMMARY: E. coli food poisoning linked to McDonald’s Quarter Pounder hamburgers has affected at least 49 people across 10 states, with one reported death and 10 hospitalizations. Infections occurred between September 27 and October 11, primarily in the West and Midwest. Early investigations suggest onions on the burgers may be the contamination source, prompting McDonald’s to remove slithered onions and temporarily pull the Quarter Pounder from select locations. Symptoms include severe stomach cramps, fever, and vomiting. Other menu items remain unaffected, and McDonald’s is working to restore its full menu while emphasizing its commitment to food safety.
