Federal and state health investigators have definitively linked a regional Salmonella outbreak in San Diego County, California, to an egg producer, Eben-Haezer's Happy Hens in Ramona. Environmental samples from the farm's hen houses matched the outbreak strain, which has sickened dozens and hospitalized multiple patients. Despite official recommendations from state health authorities, the poultry farm has not issued a voluntary recall. The investigation began in July 2026, with 23 confirmed or probable cases reported as of September 5, 2026.
