The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has posted a food safety alert concerning a multistate outbreak of Salmonella linked to jalapeños. The supplied announcement links to a separate CDC outbreak page but does not provide case counts, affected states, dates of illness onset, hospitalizations, deaths or details about implicated products. It also does not describe the evidence supporting the food link or specify testing, treatment or consumer recommendations.
