Investigation of a multistate <em>Salmonella</em> outbreak linked to backyard poultry.
<em>Salmonella </em>Infection (Salmonellosis) · cdc.gov


NOTE/COMMENT: They don't even have to consume it to get Salmonella... They are getting Salmonella by simply handling live poultry,,

I am but a layperson on the matter but I don't understand why this is even happening because shouldn't farmers be masking and using gloves and goggles anyway because of potential avian flu? It just surprises me people aren't already taking precautions against avian flu because if they were I assume the same precautions might ward off Salmonella as well.

"The precautions for avian flu and Salmonella
are highly compatible, with good hygiene, thorough cooking , and avoiding contact with sick birds or their feces being effective against both. Key actions include washing hands frequently, wearing gloves when handling poultry/bird feeders, and preventing wild birds from interacting with backyard flocks"

"Public Health Actions
CDC advises everyone to take steps to stay healthy around backyard poultry. CDC and state partners are working with hatcheries and stores that sell poultry to educate new poultry owners and control the spread of Salmonella at hatcheries."

P.S. I'm always making the same point over and over: By taking precautions such as masking, washing hands and clothes, etc. we wind up protecting ourselves not just from one virus but from a multitude of viruses. When you mask, you wind up protecting yourself from numerous airborne illness and airborne diseases simultneously  all at the same time.

By iHeartRadio
Apr 28, 2026


A multi-state salmonella outbreak linked to backyard poultry is raising alarms among federal health officials, with some infections showing resistance to common antibiotics.

The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) confirmed at least 34 people across 13 states have been sickened by the same strain of salmonella, all traced to contact with backyard birds. Thirteen of those patients required hospitalization. No deaths have been reported so far.

Illnesses were reported between Wednesday (February 26) and Tuesday (March 31). The patients range in age from less than one year old to 78 years old, with a median age of just 12. More than 40% of those infected are children younger than five.
