The recall covers Arizona, California, Illinois, Indiana, Nebraska, New Mexico, Nevada, Washington and Wyoming.

WASHINGTON — Federal health officials reported on Saturday that a salmonella outbreak tied to a significant egg recall has caused illness in numerous individuals across seven states in the West and Midwest.

According to a notice on the Food and Drug Administration’s website posted on Friday, the August Egg Company has recalled around 1.7 million eggs. These eggs, including both brown organic and brown cage-free varieties, were distributed to grocery stores between February and May and have the potential to be contaminated with salmonella.

The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention stated that a strain of salmonella linked to these eggs has infected at least 79 people across seven states, resulting in 21 hospitalizations.

The recall covers Arizona, California, Illinois, Indiana, Nebraska, New Mexico, Nevada, Washington and Wyoming. A list of brands and plant codes or Julian dates can be found on the FDA and CDC websites.

Symptoms of salmonella poisoning include diarrhea, fever, severe vomiting, dehydration and stomach cramps. Most people who get sick recover within a week.

Infections can be severe in young children, older adults and people with weakened immune systems, who may require hospitalization.

The CDC advises people to throw away recalled eggs or return them to the store where they were purchased. Consumers should also wash and disinfect any surfaces that came in contact with the eggs.
