chipotle

A couple months ago there was an E. Coli outbreak is several chipotle restaurants. In January 27, 2016 the CDC reported 55 people infected with E. Coli linked to the food-chain. The outbreak involved 11 states, California (3), Delaware (1), Illinois (1), Kentucky (1), Maryland (1), Minnesota (2), New York (1), Ohio (3), Oregon (13), Pennsylvania (2), and Washington (27). There were a total of 21 hospitalizations. Most of these cases were reported in Oregon and Washington in October 2015. Chipotle closed 43 restaurants following this outbreak and were working with investigators to determine when it would be appropriate to reopen the restaurants. They are making sure to replace all the food they had and making sure nobody is sick when they come back to work. This issue could relate to me because maybe i could’ve been someone that ate chipotle and gotten the illness, but thankfully i don’t like chipotle.
