Health officials are investigating an E. coli outbreak linked to McDonald’s Quarter Pounders in multiple states, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said Tuesday.
It’s not yet known which ingredient in the hamburgers is making people sick. Slivered onions and quarter-pound beef patties, both of which are specifically used for Quarter Pounders, are being looked at.
At least 49 people in 10 states have been sickened. One person, an older adult in Colorado, has died.
Ten people have been hospitalized, including a child who developed a kidney disease called hemolytic uremic syndrome.
McDonald’s is working with public health officials, according to the CDC. The fast-food chain has stopped using the slivered onions and quarter-pound beef patties in several states, the CDC said.
Food safety alert
Investigation start date: October 22, 2024
Investigation status: Open
Recall issued: No
This is a fast-moving outbreak investigation. Most sick people are reporting eating Quarter Pounder hamburgers from McDonald’s and investigators are working quickly to confirm which food ingredient is contaminated. McDonald’s has pulled ingredients for these burgers, and they won’t be available for sale in some states.
Right on time after the MSM propaganda binge machine has konniption fits about Trump making a McDonalds Campaign skit and the pounding Kamala is taking for not proving she worked at a McDonalds as a french fry cooker when she was in school.

It took longer to take the screenshot and upload it here than the actual search.
The authorities became active on the 15th, give the newspapers a little time until the information arrives.
