"Five new salmonella cases are identified
Public health officials said the number of salmonella cases in Massachusetts has risen to 17 after five more people were infected as authorities struggle to curb a nationwide outbreak associated with certain types of raw tomatoes. The state Public Health Department announced yesterday that five new cases were identified after DNA matching of the outbreak strain with samples submitted by healthcare workers. There have been no deaths, but at least two of the cases have required hospitalization. All the cases were reported from late May to early June. The youngest person to get sick was a 5-year-old girl and the oldest was a 45-year-old woman (AP)."
