JBS Swift Expands Beef Recall380,000 pounds of beef may be contaminated with E. coli |
|||||||||||||

June 28, 2009
FSIS and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) have been investigating 24 illnesses in multiple states, of which at least 18 appear to be associated. The beef products were produced on April 21, 2009 and were distributed both nationally and internationally. A list of the products subject to the expanded recall is available online.[PDF Only] Each box bears the establishment number "EST. 969" inside the USDA mark of inspection as well as the identifying package date of "042109" and a time stamp ranging from "0618" to "1130." However, these products were sent to establishments and retail stores nationwide for further processing and will likely not bear the establishment number "EST. 969" on products available for direct consumer purchase. Customers with concerns should contact their point of purchase. The recalled products include intact cuts of beef, such as primals, sub-primals, or boxed beef typically used for steaks and roasts rather than ground beef. FSIS is aware that some of these products may have been further processed into ground products by other companies. The highest risk products for consumers are raw ground product, trim or other non-intact product made from the products subject to the recall. E. coli O157:H7 H7 is a potentially deadly bacterium that can cause bloody diarrhea, dehydration, and in the most severe cases, kidney failure. The very young, seniors and persons with weak immune systems are the most susceptible to foodborne illness. Individuals concerned about an illness should contact a physician. Report Your Experience
