35 cases linked to salmonella outbreak

[guest]

The number of salmonella cases believed to be connected to last week’s outbreak now stands at 35, according to Ottawa’s public-health department, an increase of 10 since Friday. The department has also added W.O. Mitchell Elementary School in Kanata to the list of schools affected. Like all the others, W.O. Mitchell is served by a franchise of The Lunch Lady, a catering service that delivers hot meals for children whose parents order them. Starting last week, the department began analysing samples of ground beef and a handful of other foods from a particular Lunch Lady kitchen on Boyd Avenue, with the contamination thought to have come in meat lasagna and beef tacos.
