ATLANTA (AP) -- A mysterious and scattered outbreak of the E. coli bacteria is linked to 14 illnesses and one death, health officials say.
No form of contaminated food or other cause has been identified in the illnesses, which occurred in April and May, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
Three people were hospitalized. One - a child in the New Orleans area - died last week.
The reported illnesses were spread across six states. Georgia had five cases, Louisiana four, Alabama two, and Tennessee, Florida and California each had one.
