Shared Latte Illness Suspected - Starbucks, West Des Moines Iowa

555 South 51st Street, West Des Moines, 50265 Iowa, United States

Myself and 3 family members all had starbucks on 5/16. My bf's dad, stepmom and I all got coffee drinks. Lattes. Mine with almond milk and theirs were just normal milk lattes. My bf had an energy pink drink. Within 12 hours of consumption, we all were dizzy and not feeling great. Within 24 hours we all had severe diarrhea, vomiting, chills, fever, and body aches. Starbucks was the only thing we all had the same of all day. Considering we all ate different foods and different drinks all day, we have come to the conclusion that it must have been a stomach bug from poor handwashing done by the barista. I missed 2 days of work due to my symptoms. On this 3rd day, I am feeling better but still not great. Normally id let things like this go but since more than 3 of us got the same symptoms all around the same exact time.. I feel I need to report this. | Symptoms: Nausea, Diarrhea, Vomiting, Stomach Pain, Fever, Cramps, Chills, Headache, Dizziness
