Federal health officials have concluded their investigation involving General Mills flour implicated in an E. coli outbreak that sickened at least 63 between December 2015 and now, but they say more people are expected to become ill.
Both the Food and Drug Administration and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention again urged consumers nationwide to check their homes for the recalled flour and a variety of recalled foods made with it in final outbreak reports posted Thursday.
“Although the outbreak investigation is over, illnesses are expected to continue for some time,” according to the CDC report. “Consumers who don’t know about the recalls could continue to eat the products and get sick. A list of the recalled products and how to identify them is available on the Advice to Consumers page.”
