Michigan state University Food Poisoning Suspected

Michigan State University is investigating the cause that left thirty MSU students at Shaw Hall sick on Wednesday.  The students had symptoms consistent with food poisoning, such as abdominal pain, vomiting, and diarrhea.  Many sought treatment at Sparrow Hospital for their sickness.

Although the cause has not yet been determined, this does sound similar to recent food poisoning cases handled by our firm for the Norovirus.  This can be transmitted through a sick kitchen worker who comes into contact with food that is served to diners.  Althought most people recover within a few days, others require hospitalization.  Anyone sickened at this outbreak should contact our office as we have obtained settlements in similar cases for food poisoning victims.

Norovirus and The Canterbury Castle Banquet Center

The Oakland County Health Department is investigating a possible Norovirus food poisoning outbreak at the Canterbury Castle Banquet Center in Lake Orion, Michigan.  Three separate events with over 500 people had meals at the restaurant just over a week ago.  Many have called in with reports of sickness and symptoms consistent with the norovirus.

As a food poisoning lawyer who has handled many norovirus food poisoning cases, I  can tell you that the symptoms described by clients with the Norovirus are severe.  Many people with the Norovirus suffer at home for days and others are actually admitted to the hospital for testing due to severe abdmominal pain, vomiting, and other symptoms. 

It is unknown whether there will be any litigation for this outbreak and it will not be known until the investigation is completed.  Determining the source and cause of the Norovirus presents and interesting challenge to health department officials and they do this through inspections of the facility, interviews with employees and guests, written interview forms, and a detailed analysis of medical records.  Those sickened with the Norovirus who were guests at the facility should contact a lawyer to discuss their legal rights.

Peanuts and Salmonella: Plant Knew They Were Tainted

The salomella poisoning from peanuts that has put a huge scare into American consumers is still in the news.  An FDA report indicates that the plant that processes the peanuts that are used in all types of food products had been warned about the problem years earlier, but may not have followed orders to correct the issues.  Federal law prohibits producing or shipping foods under conditions that can make it harmful to consumers.  The salmonella outbreak has been blamed for at least eight deaths and hundreds of illnesses in 43 states.

Peanut Butter Salmonella Update | Michigan Food Poisoning Lawyers

The recent Salmonella outbreak from Peanut Corp. of America peanut butter has led to a growing list of recalled products.  The Salmonella infected peanut butter is so far confined to peanut butter that is sold to large institutions such as nursing homes and, of growing importance, food manufacturers.  The peanut butter that a grocery store sells to individual consumers has so far been unaffected by the recall and no cases of Salmonella have been traced to individual containers.

Multiple Salmonella strains have been isolated at Peanut Corp.'s plant in Blakely, Georgia.  So far, no other plants have been implicated in the Salmonella outbreak and the Blakely plant has been closed.  However, the outbreak has already infected hundreds of people in 43 States and Canada, and several people have actually died from the Salmonella.

Furthermore, the strains that have been isolated are NOT the same strain as the one that has been infecting people.  People who have been infected with this Salmonella strain should strongly consider contacting an attorney to discuss suing Peanut Corp. and any other party responsible for the outbreak because it is very clear that Peanut Corp. has acted improperly.

A full list of products that have been recalled is available at the FDA's Recalled Peanut Butter Products page.  As stated, individual jars sold to consumers have so far not been affected.

Chipotle Food Poisoning in Kent Ohio

I have been taking a lot of calls from customers who became very ill from the Chipotle Mexican Grill food poisoning outbreak last month.  I expect to be filing claims for many of them against the restaurant chain shortly.  Thoe Portage County Health Department has confirmed that the food borne illness associated with the Chipotle outbreak was Norovirus Genotype G2.  The health department is concerned over secondary cases of the illness, which arises when a sick customer comes in contact with another person and transmits the virus.

Kroger E. coli Lawyer: Michigan Ohio

Kroger beef has been positively linked to the E. coli outbreak in Michigan and Ohio.  Several dozen cases of the E. coli bacteria have been reported in these states and many have been hospitalized.  Reported illnesses include vomiting, diahrrea, nausea and other symptoms.  E. coli poisoning can be serious and can cause death. 

My firm handles food poisoning cases for sick restaurant and grocery store customers throughout Michigan and Ohio. These include cases for E. coli, salmonella, and other bacteria.  Suppliers of meat products, like Kroger, have a legal duty to take appropriate safeguards to ensure that safe beef is being sold to its customerrs. 

When an outbreak, like the Kroger beef E. coli, occurrs, the ill customers do have legal rights and are entitled to money damages for their injuries and suffering.  Anyone who has become ill as a result of the Kroger E. coli outbreak should contact me as soon as possible.
