Food Borne Illnesses
Ohio Attorney Representing Victims of Food Borne Illness
The Center for Disease Control (CDC) reports that more than 250 food borne diseases have been identified, including hepatitis and other infections caused by bacteria, viruses and parasites. We have all read the headlines about people getting sick and families losing loved ones due to food borne illnesses such as e-coli, salmonella, melamine and botulism.
Fatality statistics and national news about food recalls come home and hit hard when an individual or family is affected by a food borne illness. As with any other injury, a food borne illness is likely to result in the following injuries and losses:
- Hospital bills
- Lost wage replacement
- Lingering or permanent effects such as neuromuscular function disorders or kidney failure
Have you, or has your child or spouse, been struck by a food borne illness? Due to the speed with which evidence can be hidden or lost in such a case, the sooner you have a lawyer on the case, the more likely you are to tap into the most promising sources of compensation.
Food recalls of recent years that brought the problem of food borne illnesses to light have included the following:
- Canned chilies
- Green onions
- Tomatoes
- Spinach
- Peanut butter
