Don't eat romaine lettuce, CDC urges amid E. coli concerns
Full story:

(CNN)The US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention warned US
consumers on Tuesday to not eat romaine lettuce, as it may be
contaminated with E. coli.

Thirty-two people, including 13 who have been hospitalized, have been
infected with the outbreak strain in 11 states, according to the CDC.
One of the hospitalized people developed hemolytic uremic syndrome, a
potentially life-threatening form of kidney failure. No deaths have been
reported.

People have become sick in California, Connecticut, Illinois,
Massachusetts, Maryland, Michigan, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York,
Ohio and Wisconsin.

The Public Health Agency of Canada has identified an additional 18
people who have become sick with the same strain of E. coli in Ontario
and Quebec.

The US Food and Drug Administration, which is also investigating the
outbreak, cautions that if you have any romaine lettuce at home, you
should throw it away, even if you have eaten some and did not get sick.
