Outbreak Summary
OFT Law’s Salmonella Lawyers are actively monitoring a multi-state outbreak of Salmonella infections linked to large brown cage-free “sunshine/omega-3 golden” yolk eggs. This public health issue has led to numerous illnesses and hospitalizations across the country. We are here to help victims understand their rights and hold responsible parties accountable.
The outbreak strain of Salmonella that has already sickened 95 individuals across 14 states. The affected states include Arizona, California, Florida, Georgia, Hawaii, Iowa, Minnesota, North Carolina, Nebraska, New Mexico, Nevada, New York, Pennsylvania, and Washington. Of those who fell ill, 18 people have required hospitalization, though thankfully no deaths have been reported at this time.
The investigation has linked these illnesses to eggs distributed by Country Eggs, LLC, of Lucerne Valley, California. The contaminated products were sold under several brand names, including Nagatoshi Produce, Misuho, Nijiya Markets, and Country Eggs. They were also sold in bulk for foodservice and presumably used to make meals at restaurants.
We represent many people who have been sickened by Salmonella and our Salmonella lawyers have filed lawsuits on behalf of many individuals sickened in other outbreaks like these. We are working hard to get to the bottom of this one. This page will update as we uncover more information. If you or a loved one believe you were sickened in this outbreak, please call or contact us using the form on this page for a free consultation.

While symptoms usually resolve on their own, a Salmonella infection can be severe, especially for young children, older adults, and those with weakened immune systems.

Even a subclinical infection can lead to severe complications such as Reactive Arthritis.
