Anthony;

Do you think Sara Lee is a good short? This news came out late this afternoon.

CDC: Meat Outbreak Killed Eight

Atlanta (AP)--The death toll has climbed to eight in a bacterial outbreak linked to a Michigan meat processing plant, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reported Thursday.

The CDC found listeria contamination in an unopened package of hot dogs handled at the Bill Mar Foods plant in Zeeland, Mich. A different strain of the bacteria was discovered in unopened packages of deli meat produced at the plant. Bill Mar Foods is a Sara Lee subsidiary.

The outbreak has sickened 50 people in 11 states since August, including two women who suffered miscarriages, the CDC said.

Last month, Sara Lee recalled several brands of hot dogs and cold cuts.

Healthy people can usually fight off the bacteria with no more than flu-like symptoms. But listeria can cause meningitis or blood infections, particularly in pregnant women, the elderly and people with weak immune systems.
