SUMMARY: As Thanksgiving approaches, concerns about the food supply are rising due to recent foodborne outbreaks and recalls linked to E. coli and allergens, leading to hospitalizations and deaths. Dr. Kei Snyder from the University of Florida emphasizes that while these outbreaks might seem alarming, they are not uncommon, though tracking the sources can be challenging. Many outbreaks go unreported due to insufficient information. To mitigate risks, he recommends proper hygiene and food safety practices like handwashing and cleaning surfaces, especially for vulnerable groups such as young children, older adults, and immunocompromised individuals.

There are now concerns over the nation’s food supply following several foodborne outbreaks and recalls involving E-Coli and Listeria. ABC Action News has reported extensively on the recent nationwide E-Coli outbreak linked to tainted meat and vegetables. Doctors say these cases of foodborne outbreaks aren’t unusual, we are just hearing about them more.
