SAN FRANCISCO, California (AP) -- Test results linking two bags of Dole
brand baby spinach to a deadly E. coli strain have helped health
officials focus on a specific batch from a San Juan Bautista processing
plant that may be the source of a nationwide outbreak.
The investigation remains focused on Natural Selection Foods LLC, which
officials believe packaged the tainted spinach for Dole and dozens of
other brands.
They're looking specifically at nine farms in three California counties
that supplied the company with leafy greens.
Both tainted bags -- one found in Utah last weekend and the other in
New Mexico earlier last week -- were processed during the same shift on
August 15 at Natural Selection's plant, said Dr. Kevin Reilly, deputy
director of prevention services for the California Department of Health
Services.
"We are looking very aggressively at what was produced on that date,"
Reilly said Monday. "Much of the feedback we got from patients right
now was related to Dole packaging." (Watch federal officials try to
pinpoint the E. coli source -- 2:02)
About two dozen cases have yet to be confirmed as related to the
spinach outbreak, but officials do not expect any new cases to arise,
said Howard Backer, California's acting public health officer.
"We probably are seeing the tail end of the outbreak," Backer said.
"Partly as a result of spinach being taken off from the market, there
is not ongoing contamination."
The E. coli outbreak from spinach has sickened at least 175 people, the
U.S. Food and Drug Administration said Monday. More than half -- 93 --
were hospitalized, including a 77-year-old Wisconsin woman who died.
Two other deaths have been reported in suspected cases -- a child in
Idaho and an elderly woman in Maryland -- but those cases still are
being investigated.
In addition to Dole, Natural Selection Foods has recalled more than 30
brands, including President's Choice, Ready Pac, Trader Joe's, Nature's
Basket and Premium Fresh.
It was too soon to say whether any other brands besides Dole would turn
out to have been contaminated, he added. Calls to Dole's headquarters
in Westlake Village were not returned Monday. (Watch broader concerns

Although the FDA has recommended that people not eat fresh, raw
spinach, it said Friday that spinach grown anywhere outside
California's Salinas Valley is safe to eat.
Salinas Valley farmers and growers were developing new food safety
guidelines they need to have approved by the FDA before the agency
lifts its consumer warning on locally grown and packaged spinach.
"At this point, there is not a finalized proposal, but I know there is
a lot of effort going forward with that right now," Reilly said Monday.
Last weekend, two companies in the Pacific Northwest voluntarily
recalled some of their products because they may contain spinach
supplied by Natural Selection.
Seattle-based Triple B Corp. recalled salad products distributed to
retail stores and delis in Washington, Oregon, Idaho and Montana that
had "use by" dates of August 22 through September 20.
Pacific Coast Fruit Company, based in Portland, Oregon, recalled salad
and pizza that may have been made with spinach supplied by Natural
Selections. The products were distributed in Alaska, Oregon, Washington
and Idaho.
The 25 states that have reported infections are Arizona, California,
Colorado, Connecticut, Idaho, Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky, Maine,
Maryland, Michigan, Minnesota, Nebraska, Nevada, New Mexico, New York,
Ohio, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Tennessee, Utah, Virginia, Washington,
Wisconsin and Wyoming.
