A Salmonella Richmond outbreak has been reported, affecting 11 individuals across an unspecified location. The outbreak, linked to an unidentified product, is currently under investigation by the FDA, which has initiated traceback efforts to determine the source of contamination.

The outbreak was first reported on October 16, 2025, and has been classified as active and ongoing. The FDA is actively working to identify the specific product responsible for the illnesses. While the total case count stands at 11, the exact geographic distribution of the cases has not been disclosed. The agency has not yet initiated a recall, but it is closely monitoring the situation and advising consumers to stay informed about any updates.

The problem was discovered through routine surveillance and reporting of foodborne illnesses. Health officials have been collaborating with local and state health departments to gather data and trace the source of the outbreak.

As the investigation continues, the FDA is urging consumers to remain vigilant and follow any forthcoming guidance.
