Mallorca – Six hospitalised in Palma with Salmonella

Posted on May 6, 2022 by KSW | Leave a comment

Majorca Daily Bulletin

Six people have been hospitalised in Palma with salmonella.

The victims were infected after eating tortilla at a restaurant on the outskirts of the El Terreno neighbourhood of the city.

The Health department has launched an investigation to determine whether there are any other problems at the restaurant.

Hospitals and Health Centres must report all salmonella cases to the Ministry of Health, who carry out a survey to determine the source of the outbreak.

In August 2019, a Japanese restaurant in Calle Blanquerna was temporarily closed after a salmonella outbreak affected more than 100 people.

Posted on May 6, 2022 by KSW | Leave a comment

Food Safety News

Nutricia infant formula has been found to contain Cronobacter after testing in Australia.

A batch of KetoCal 3:1 was positive for Cronobacter spp. during testing at the border by customs officials. There have been no illnesses linked to the product, and the source of contamination is being investigated by the company.

The implicated formula is a specialist product not sold to the general public but available under prescription for children with special nutritional needs.

Affected tins are batch number 101101598 with best before July 8, 2023. For many patients there is no alternative feeding option so Nutricia has provided advice to consumers on how to make the product safe.
