Conoco View Dairy Raw Milk - Public Health Alert due to Campylobacter
1 year ago •source media.pa.gov
Outbreak
410 Clarks Run Road, Blain, 17006 Pennsylvania, United States
The Pennsylvania Department of Agriculture has issued a warning to consumers about a food outbreak linked to Conoco View Dairy's raw milk products. The outbreak, caused by Campylobacter contamination, has reportedly made 11 people sick across Cumberland, Juniata, Perry, Snyder, and York Counties.The outbreak was traced back to raw milk products sold by Conoco View Dairy. The products were sold in plastic pints, quarts, and gallons, as well as glass quarts. They were available at the dairy's retail outlet at 410 Clarks Run Road in Blain, Perry County, and other retail locations in Cumberland, Juniata, Perry, Snyder, and York Counties. The dairy also delivered products directly to homes in Dauphin, Perry, and Juniata County and at drop-off points in Harrisburg, Carlisle, Enola, and Mechanicsburg.
The issue came to light after the Department of Agriculture conducted tests following 11 reports of campylobacteriosis illnesses in December and January. The tests confirmed the presence of Campylobacter in the dairy products. While the source of the bacteria is clear, the specific production dates could not be pinpointed, leading to the recommendation that all products, including those in consumers' freezers, should be discarded.
In case you experience Campylobacter symptoms such as diarrhea (often bloody), fever, nausea, vomiting, and stomach cramps, report it now. It can help to detect & resolve outbreaks early and prevent others from being harmed, and it enables better surveillance. If symptoms persist, seek medical care.
