Bismillah Halal Meats is issuing a public health alert for various retail ground beef products that may be contaminated with E. coli O103. The affected beef was sold directly to consumers in Marietta, Georgia, between April 10 and April 23, 2025. While no illnesses have been confirmed, the contamination was discovered during routine government surveillance sampling. These products were weighed, wrapped, and labeled in-store at the time of purchase and are no longer available for retail sale.
The beef may contain Shiga-toxin producing E. coli O103, which causes diarrhea (often bloody) and vomiting. While most people recover within a week, vulnerable populations like children under 5 and older adults can develop hemolytic uremic syndrome (HUS), a serious type of kidney failure.
