New Health Alert: Salmonella Outbreak Impacts 30 States

The Center for Disease Control (CDC) is collaborating with public health officials in multiple states across the United States and with the U.S. Department of Agriculture Food Safety and Inspection Service to investigate an ongoing multi-state outbreak of Salmonella.

Advice to consumers

At this time, CDC recommends that people do not eat any Banquet pot pies or pot pies made by ConAgra Foods that have a printed code ending in "P9." Other brands of pot pies made in the ConAgra Foods factory that makes Banquet brand pot pies and sold under other brand names may also be contaminated with Salmonella. These other pot pie boxes also have a printed code ending in "P9". If you have any of these products at home, the safest thing to do is to discard them.

Consumers with questions about these products may contact the ConAgra hotline at (866) 484-8671

Clinical features of Salmonella
Most people infected with Salmonella develop diarrhea, fever, and abdominal cramps 12-72 hours after infection. Infection is usually diagnosed by culture of a stool sample. The illness usually lasts four to seven days. Although most people recover without treatment, severe infections may occur. Infants, elderly persons, and people with impaired immune systems are more likely than others to develop severe illness. In severe infection, Salmonella spreads from the intestines to the bloodstream and then to other body sites and death can occur if the person is not treated promptly with antibiotics.

Country Music legend George Jones brings his unmistakable voice to the Cobb Energy Performing Arts Centre on Friday, December 7.

Known as one of the finest voices in the history of country music, George Jones began his illustrious career in 1955 when he made his chart debut with "Why, Baby, Why." That single helped to plant the seeds of a career spanning over five decades and earning him more charting singles (166) than any artist in any format of music. His unmistakable voice has graced some of country music's most enduring hits such as "White Lightning," "She Thinks I Still Care," "Good Year For the Roses," "The Race Is On," "Who's Gonna Fill Their Shoes," and two Grammy award winning songs, "Choices" and the classic "He Stopped Loving Her Today."

At age 76, Jones shows no signs of slowing down. As a recording artist, his most recent projects include Hits I Missed.And One I Didn't in 2005, and 2006's Jones Sings Haggard, Haggard Sings Jones: Kickin' Out the Floodlights Again.
