Morgan Krakow of the Anchorage Daily News reported that Health officials have traced the source of a foodborne illness outbreak that sickened dozens of hospital workers in Homer to a single item, the Department of Health and Social Services said in a release Monday.
It was a Cubano sandwich, experts who investigated the incident think. In fact, it was probably the pulled pork inside of it, said Jeremy Ayers, section manager with the Food Safety and Sanitation Program within the Division of Environmental Health.
When investigating an outbreak, epidemiologists look at people’s symptoms and when they began. They start to form an idea of what dish was the likely offender. In this case a lot of signs pointed to the Cubano, Ayers said.
“[The] statistics that they came up with were pretty compelling that that sandwich was the implicated food item,” Ayers said.
Experts determined that the Homer incident likely involved a pathogen associated with cooked meat and poultry called Clostridium perfringens.

Practical information regarding the recall
Reason for recall Histamine level not in compliance with regulations
Risks incurred by the consumer Endogenous toxins: histamine (fish, cheese, alcoholic drinks, cold meats)
Consumer behaviour Stop consuming Return the product to the point of sale Contact the consumer service
Sanitary recommendation Foodborne histamine infections appear within ½ hour to a few hours after consuming the responsible dish and consist of an acute allergy. The symptoms observed are classically redness and “swelling” of the face, headaches, a feeling of heat and discomfort, associated with digestive signs (nausea, vomiting, diarrhoea). People with allergies are particularly concerned because they may also have acute respiratory problems: they must absolutely refrain from consuming the foodstuffs mentioned and, in the event of such symptoms appearing, consult the emergency department without delay. Remission is usually spontaneous and accelerated by administration of an antihistamine.

Public Health has temporarily closed the kitchen of the Doblemar Hotel, located on the Gran Via in La Manga del Mar Menor, after 63 guests were taken ill with food poisoning. Sources have since revealed that the outbreak was originally detected on July 25, but that more cases were reported in recent days and the kitchen was shut this week while the source of the contamination is investigated.
While many of those affected have suffered only mild symptoms, such as nausea, fever or vomiting, as many as 20 of the guests have had to be admitted to hospital.
Food poisoning, or norovirus infection, usually causes gastroenteritis, the most common symptoms of which are stomach pain, nausea, vomiting and diarrhoea. Most people develop symptoms 12 to 48 hours after contracting norovirus, and they can last up to three days. Contagion occurs by coming into direct contact with an infected person, by consuming intoxicated food or water and by touching contaminated surfaces and then touching the mouth with the hands. There is no specific drug against this virus, and doctors recommend drinking plenty of fluids to avoid dehydration.
