An E Coli outbreak linked to McDonald’s Quarter Pounder Hamburgers has resulted in one death and at least 49 illnesses, primarily in Colorado and Nebraska. The outbreak has led McDonald’s to temporarily remove the Quarter Pounder from restaurants in impacted states, including Colorado, Kansas, Utah, and Wyoming. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) reported that all infected individuals had eaten at McDonald’s, with most mentioning the Quarter Pounder. Investigators are focusing on fresh beef patties and slivered onions as potential sources of contamination. McDonald’s is working with suppliers to restock safe ingredients. The outbreak has caused McDonald’s shares to drop 6%, and it may impact US cattle futures. E. coli symptoms include stomach cramps, diarrhea, and vomiting, with illness starting 1 to 10 days after exposure. E.
