- FDA has completed the investigation into a multistate outbreak of Salmonella Weltevreden infections linked to the consumption of frozen cooked shrimp manufactured by Avanti Frozen Foods of India. https://go.usa.gov/x6v96
- Recalled shrimp should no longer be available for sale. However, consumers, restaurant, and retailers should check their freezers and should throw away any of the recalled shrimp.
