Outbreak Summary
July 16, 2025 – OFT Law is closely monitoring a newly announced Salmonella Oranienburg outbreak. While specific details regarding the number of individuals affected or the implicated food source have not yet been released, this outbreak has been noted for inclusion on the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and Food and Drug Administration (FDA) Coordinated Outbreak Response and Evaluation (CORE) Investigation Table.
The presence of an outbreak on the CORE Investigation Table indicates that federal authorities are actively collaborating to identify the scope and source of the illnesses. However, at this early stage, critical information such as the total number of people sickened, the states involved, and the specific food item or product causing the illnesses is still pending. The new outbreak’s inclusion on the CORE table signifies that this Salmonella Oranienburg outbreak is a priority for federal investigation.
