BREAKING NEWS: Backyard poultry Salmonella outbreak turns deadly

The number of confirmed Salmonella infections linked to contact with backyard poultry has increased almost 15-fold, from seven cases in 6 states as of May 5, 2025 to 104 cases in 35 states as of May 30th.

One person has died; twenty-five have been hospitalized.

The CDC has added a second outbreak strain to its investigation. The agency reports that cases linked to backyard poultry include infections with Salmonella Mbandaka and Salmonella Enteritidis.

Victims range in age from less than one year to 85 years, with a median age of 18 years. Nearly one third of the victims (32%) are less than five years old.

If history is any indicator, we could easily see another 10-fold increase in the confirmed case count. During the decade spanning 2015-2024, contact with backyard poultry accounted for more than 9300 confirmed Salmonella infections, 1,999 hospitalizations and 12 deaths.
