It includes products branded as Bona, Cosmo’s Smoked Meats, Imperial Meats, Naturissimo, Rea and Superior Meats. A full list of recalled products is available here.
The Public Health Agency of Canada said in late June that 72 people have fallen ill after eating the salami recalled due to possible salmonella contamination.
The products were recalled in Ontario, Alberta and Manitoba on June 10. British Columbia was also added to the updated recall notice Friday.
At that time, 57 illnesses had been reported, with 44 in Alberta, 13 in Ontario and none in Manitoba.
On Tuesday, the public health agency reported additional cases, bringing Alberta’s infections to 57, Ontario to 14 and Manitoba to one.
Seven people have been hospitalized since the recall was issued.
The federal health agency said most people fell ill between mid-April and mid-June after eating salami in prepared sandwiches or bought from deli counters.
They recommend checking for the following product codes: 5035 226, 5049 226, 5020 228, 5035 228 and 5035 226.
Salmonella is a food-borne bacterial illness that can spread several days or weeks after a person is infected, even if they don’t have symptoms.
It can result in severe and potentially deadly infections, particularly for children, pregnant people, the elderly and people with weakened immune systems.
Healthy people may experience short-term symptoms such as fever, headache, vomiting, nausea, cramps and diarrhea.
