NORTH CAROLINA: Salmonella outbreak contained at Newton restaurant - (wbtv.com)
November 30, 2007 – 7:07 pmhttp://www.wbtv.com/news/topstories/11977121.html
A Salmonella outbreak is contained in Newton tonight and the restaurant where it all started has been cleared to re-open.
But WBTV’s Kristen Hampton talked to the owner today who says his doors will remain closed.
The story explains that there are two different businesses affected, one is a grocery shop the other is a restaurant. Both were closed by the salmonella outbreak and only the grocery will re-open.
Javier Chavez closed the restaurant down voluntarily on November 2, after dozens of people reported symptoms of salmonella.
The health department has confirmed that 44 people got the bacteria from eating at Chavez’s restaurnat.
Now, more than three weeks after the outbreak, Chavez says he will not re-open dining room portion of his business.
