Ireland – Woman died from Salmonella-contaminated food served at First Communion party

Posted on January 17, 2022 by | Leave a comment

Irish Examiner

A Dublin woman who was a keen fitness fanatic died from poisoning as a result of eating food contaminated with salmonella that was served at a First Holy Communion party.

An inquest into the death of Sandra O’Brien heard it was linked to cold turkey supplied by a catering firm that resulted in a major outbreak of a rare form of Salmonella in north Co Dublin in May 2017.

Ms O’Brien, 55, a mother of one from Brookdale Way, Swords, Co Dublin, was found dead in the bedroom of her home on May 21, 2017.

The inquest heard the form of infection, Salmonella Brandenburg, was typically only fatal in 0.4% of cases.

Evidence was heard that the food for the event had been provided by Flanreil Food Services, which had been operating from O’Dwyer’s Pub on Strand Road in Portmarnock, Co Dublin.

The inquest heard there had been 35 confirmed cases of Salmonella and another 37 cases of suspected Salmonella linked to the outbreak which included two kitchen staff and two chefs from the catering company.
