Subject:BiologyPrice: Bought3

Sixteen guest and three catering hall staff became sick with Shigella. The guest were part of the a large group of National Guard veterans at a reunion. They ate at a popular catering hall located in southeastern US.  Within one to three days after the catered event, reports began to come into the local regulatory authority. Those who had gotten sick reported very similar symptoms.  Each  experienced stomach cramps, fever, and diarrhea. Three people went to the emergency room to seek treatment.

The specific food involved was never determined. However, the regulatory authority confirmed that the outbreak was likely caused by the catering hall's lead cook, who  prepped the food served at the luncheon. He was not feeling well the morning of the luncheon when he reported to work. He also failed to wash his hands many times during his shift.
