Preliminary reports indicate that the food vehicle may be sushi, sashimi, or similar foods

The outbreak appears to be ongoing, as the 90 reported illnesses to date range from January 28 to April 2, 2012.  Illnesses have been reported in 19 states.  The serotype of Salmonella invovled is rare.

At this time, the CDC is NOT providing any specific advice to consumers.
