HAWAII: New Oahu case of salmonella - (Honolulu Advertiser)
February 16, 2008 – 4:56 pmThe state Department of Health was cited as saying that a new case of salmonella poisoning has been confirmed on O’ahu, bringing to 34 the number of such infections since October.
The latest case involves someone who reported eating ahi poke bought at a local market, the department said in a news release yesterday.
A federal Food and Drug Administration investigation is underway to trace the source of the salmonella contamination, DOH said.
Previous investigations have identified raw imported frozen ahi used in ahi poke as a source of illness in the other cases since October. Additional cases of fish-related illnesses have been reported in Colorado and California.
