At least 96 people have been hospitalized and 4 have died in an E. coli outbreak in Guatemala linked to fresh produce.
The outbreak, which has affected residents of the town of Santo Domingo Xenacoj in South Central Guatemala, is thought to have originated with contaminated fruits and vegetables, reported the Associated Press Thursday.
A male resident of the town reported that two of his children, ages 9 and 12, had died in the outbreak, according to AP.
Specimen taken from the four victims who died linked their deaths to E. coli, said health officials.
