Florida Raw Milk Outbreak Sickens 21 with E. coli and Campylobacter

An outbreak of E. coli and Campylobacter linked to raw milk in Florida has sickened 21 people, including children, with some requiring hospitalization. The Florida Department of Health warns against raw milk consumption due to contamination risks, despite its popularity among wellness advocates. The bacteria can cause severe illness, especially in vulnerable populations, and the sale of raw milk across state lines remains banned by the FDA, though some loopholes exist at the state level.
