One person has been reported dead in England, due to the ongoing Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC) outbreak, according to the UK Health Security Agency (UKHSA).
The agency reported that the deceased individual had underlying health conditions and passed away in May.
Another person in England, also with underlying health issues, died within 28 days of contracting the current strain. However, the UKHSA suggests that only one of these deaths is likely directly linked to their STEC infection.
This follows a recent outbreak believed to be caused by certain supermarket sandwiches containing salad leaves.
Several food manufacturers have issued recalls for some of their products as a precautionary measure.
As of June 25, there have been 275 confirmed cases of E. Coli (STEC) STEC O145, which stands for Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli serogroup O145 across UK.
Data from 249 cases indicates that 49% of those affected required hospitalisation.
E. Coli bacteria are a diverse group typically found in human and animal intestines.
While some types are harmless, others can cause severe illness.
The specific strain involved in this outbreak, Shiga-toxin-producing E. Coli (STEC) O145, can damage the lining of the intestines.
