Public health officials in Alberta, Canada, are investigating an E. coli outbreak that has been linked to pork sausage sold by Paolini’s Sausage & Meats Ltd. of Calgary.

Alberta Health Services (AHS) issued a public warning Wednesday after testing linked two of 14 people with confirmed E. coli infections to Hungarian Farmer’s Sausage from Paolini’s.

 

“As such, effective immediately, AHS is advising any individual who purchased Paolini’s Sausage & Meats Ltd’s Hungarian Farmer’s Sausage before Feb. 2 to handle this product as though it is a raw meat product, and to cook it to an internal temperature of 71 degrees C before consuming,” according to the warning.
