Summary
This article discusses Campylobacter outbreaks, focusing on Campylobacter jejuni found in poultry products. It notes that most cases are sporadic and untraceable to specific foods, but raw (unpasteurized) milk has become a common vehicle for outbreaks. Municipal water and raw clams have also been linked to outbreaks. Historically, few food recalls have occurred due to Campylobacter contamination, though raw milk has occasionally been recalled.
