Cucumbers Linked to Salmonella Outbreak Resulted in 449 Illnesses in 31 States

"There is no product from these farms on the market and likely no ongoing risk to the public," the CDC said

At least 449 people have been sickened due to a salmonella outbreak tied to cucumbers.

On Wednesday, Aug. 14, the CDC reported that people in 31 states and Washington, D.C. became ill after consuming cucumbers. They said the "likely sources of illnesses" are two Florida growers: Bedner Growers, Inc., of Boynton Beach, and Thomas Produce Company, of Boca Raton. But "these growers do not account for all the illnesses in this outbreak," the CDC added in the investigation details.

There have been 125 known hospitalizations related to the outbreak but no deaths reported.

The actual number of people who became ill is likely higher, as the CDC noted that not everyone would have sought medical treatment.

"Bedner Growers, Inc. and Thomas Produce Company in Florida are no longer growing and harvesting cucumbers for the season," the CDC reported. "There is no product from these farms on the market and likely no ongoing risk to the public."

Bedner Growers confirmed to PEOPLE that there are no cucumbers in the marketplace for sale. PEOPLE reached out Thomas Produce Company for comment but did not immediately hear back.

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration announced a recall of cucumbers due to possible salmonella contamination on June 1. At the time, a product sample tested positive for the bacteria.

States that received the potentially contaminated produce included Florida, Georgia, Maryland, New York, Tennessee, Pennsylvania and Ohio.

The CDC and FDA combined their investigations "as they shared several similarities," the CDC said on Aug. 14.

According to the Mayo Clinic, symptoms of a salmonella infection include diarrhea, fever and stomach cramps, which usually develop between six hours to six days after exposure. Most people with healthy immune systems recover within a week. However, salmonella infections can be dangerous for infants, adults over 65 and anyone who is immunocompromised.
