What you should do
Check your home and throw out any of the recalled products if you still have them. They have a long shelf-life.
Always follow the four steps to food safety to prevent getting sick from Salmonella.
Actions to take
- CleanWash your hands, utensils, and surfaces often. Rinse fruits and vegetables under running water before eating, cutting, or peeling.
- SeparateKeep food that won't be cooked separate from raw meat, poultry, and seafood.
- CookUse a food thermometer to make sure you have cooked your food to a temperature high enough to kill germs.
- ChillRefrigerate perishable food (food that goes bad) within 2 hours. If the food is exposed to temperatures above 90°F (like a hot car or picnic), refrigerate it within 1 hour. Thaw food in the refrigerator, not on the counter.
What healthcare providers need to know
- Most people with Salmonella infection recover without antibiotics. If antibiotics were needed, infections with this strain may not have been treatable with commonly recommended antibiotics and may require a different antibiotic choice.
- The Salmonella strain associated with this outbreak were resistant to all first-line and alternative antibiotics commonly recommended for the treatment of Salmonella infections.
- The Salmonella Newport strain also might be resistant to multiple β-lactam antibiotics, including meropenem and other carbapenems, because it carries an NDM-1 carbapenemase gene.
- Tailor antibiotic treatment to antimicrobial susceptibility testing results when possible.
- Consider consultation with an infectious disease specialist for management of patients with extensively drug-resistant or complicated Salmonella infection.
Symptoms of Salmonella
Most people infected with Salmonella experience diarrhea, fever, and stomach cramps. Symptoms usually start 6 hours to 6 days after swallowing the bacteria. Most people recover without treatment after 4 to 7 days.
Some people—especially children younger than 5, adults 65 and older, and people with weakened immune systems—may experience more severe illnesses that require medical treatment or hospitalization.
