Wisconsin health officials have initiated a recall of eggs following an outbreak of salmonella infections among 65 people in nine states that originated on a Wisconsin farm. The Wisconsin Department of Health Services said Friday that among those infected by salmonella are 42 people in Wisconsin, where the eggs are believed to have been sold. The department says the eggs were distributed in Wisconsin, Illinois and Michigan through retail stores and food service distributors. The department advises anyone who ate the eggs and is experiencing symptoms to contact a health care provider. Symptoms include diarrhea, abdominal pain, fever and vomiting lasting for several days.
