Public Health is investigating an outbreak of Shiga toxin-producing E. coli O121 (also known as STEC). 2 people likely became sick after eating food from Wonder Coffee and Sports Bar. Both people ate foods that could have made them sick, including raw or undercooked beef, or other foods that may have been contaminated by raw or undercooked beef. Public health is still investigating how the beef might have been contaminated with STEC.
Since July 24, 2024, Public Health has learned about two people who got sick during July 12 and July 17. Both people had symptoms of STEC. They have not found any Wonder Coffee and Sports Bar restaurant workers sick with symptoms of STEC.
Environmental Health Investigators revisited the restaurant on July 29, to make sure that proper compliance with cleaning, disinfection, and correct handwashing practices are in place.
In case you are experiencing E. coli symptoms such as watery diarrhea (often bloody), vomiting; stomach cramps; and mild fever, it is important to report it. 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.
