Shiga Toxin Sickens Five, Kills Child

By Pritzker | Ruohonen

ADVERTISEMENTS

We contacted the Texas Department of State Health Services for any updates on the illnesses caused by a shiga toxin.  Six people, including three children, were sickened. One of the children died.

foodsafetylab.jpgDoug McBride, spokesperson for the Texas Department of State Health Services, told us that there have been no additional cases reported.  He also said that the department is waiting for test results to determine if the bacteria involved is E. coli or Shigella. 

The symptoms due to this toxin include severe or bloody diarrhea and abdominal cramps, usually showing up one to nine days after exposure to the bacteria.  Anyone experiencing these symptoms should immediately seek medical attention.
