McDonald's E. coli Outbreak Linked to Slivered Onions Affects 90 Across 13 States

The CDC confirms slivered onions as the outbreak's source, with 27 hospitalizations and one death reported.

The CDC identified slivered onions from Taylor Farms as the likely cause of the E. coli outbreak at McDonald's locations.
The outbreak has resulted in 90 reported cases across 13 U.S. states, with the highest numbers in Colorado and Montana.
One person has died, and 27 have been hospitalized, with two developing serious kidney complications.
McDonald's has stopped using onions from the Colorado Springs facility and resumed selling Quarter Pounders without them.
The public health risk is now considered very low due to the actions taken by McDonald's and Taylor Farms.
