The FDA is investigating a new outbreak of E. coli O157:H7 infections that has sickened 25 people.
The Food and Drug Administration has not reported where the patients live or how old they are. The agency has begun traceback efforts, but is not yet reporting what food or foods are being traced.
E. coli is particularly dangerous and often results in the hospitalization of patients. Some patients develop a type of kidney failure and others develop brain injuries. Death is more likely in patients infected with E. coli O157:H7 than other types of E. coli.
