A salmonella outbreak linked to raw turkey has killed one person and sickened over 160 across multiple states, just ahead of Thanksgiving.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said in a Thursday statement that 164 people across 35 states have been infected with the outbreak strain Salmonella Reading as of Nov. 5.

A majority of the infections were reported in Minnesota, Illinois, California, New York and Texas. (For a full map of reported cases by state, click here.)

“The outbreak strain has also been found in raw turkey pet food and live turkeys, indicating it might be widespread in the turkey industry.”
