Another 160 people made sick from salmonella in tomatoes

Another 160 people made sick from salmonella in tomatoes, per the CDC. The new total is now 383 people in 30 states, but health officials are still not able to identify the cause.

Dr. Robert Tauxe of the CDC said, “We do not think the outbreak is over.” And the majority of the new cases were people who became ill weeks ago but have not been considered so far.
