Outbreak

777 Aten Road, Coraopolis, 15108 Pennsylvania, United States

The Allegheny County Health Department started an investigation of The Pittsburgh Airport Marriott in Coraopolis, PA, after at least 200 people reported gastrointestinal illnesses following 3 large events held at the hotel on April 2 and April 3.

According to the news, the first event affected was a bridal shower that was held at the hotel. 70 people were sickened about 36 hours after. Later that night, a wedding was held there. The couple said of the 155 people in attendance, 80 have reported an illness so far. People who attended a football banquet the next day had the same experience.

The Health Department reported on an inspection on April 5 that an inspector found cleaning and sanitization violations like dirty silverware and mold on speed racks in the vegetable walk-in cooler. The soap dispenser at the dish machine was also out of batteries. 2 days later, a reinspection report gave satisfactory marks for cleaning and sanitization.

In case you are experiencing food poisoning symptoms, 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.

sensation in my throat that caused a panic. I immediately took activated charcoal but it took 15 minutes to kick in. This was alarming, never felt that sensation before. I knew it was serious, but luckily I keep charcoal on hand. I believe this was not caused by a pathogen but rather tainted by a chemical. Like to have it analyzed, as I still have the carton.  | Symptoms: Stomach Pain

I waited until the night of Friday to Saturday with a lot of concern, I was right because I also vomited 6 times and slept very little.
