A Nebraska company is recalling alfalfa sprouts sold in three states after 16 cases of salmonella were linked to the food.
SunSprouts said Thursday that its recall covers 808 pounds of sprouts that it sold to distributors in Nebraska, Iowa and Kansas in November and December. Health officials have said they linked the illnesses to alfalfa sprouts eaten at several restaurants and sold at several different grocery chains.
So far, no salmonella cases have been confirmed outside of Nebraska. But the Food and Drug Administration said it is conducting a multistate investigation into the outbreak. Salmonella causes sometimes bloody diarrhea, fever and stomach cramps. People with weakened immune systems, the elderly and young children are especially susceptible to developing severe illnesses. The federal Centers for Disease Control and Prevention estimates that 26,500 people are hospitalized and 450 die from salmonella infections every year. But most people recover from salmonella infections on their own.

Many articles in The Tribune have described the environmental disaster now occurring that will worsen if the lake continues to dry out. The cause is not in dispute: more water is leaving the lake, through evaporation and industrial use, than is coming into it. The solution is easy to understand: deliver more water to the lake and it will either shrink more slowly, stabilize, or begin to refill.
