A salmonella outbreak linked to bad eggs rendered at least 306 people sick in Belgium. They ate bad eggs. The infection spread as people had products prepared with contaminated eggs. News outlets such as Euronews.com, The Independent, and The Brussels Times reported the outbreak.

Authorities took action to resolve this. They ordered a multi-nation recall of two million eggs to manage the situation. DutchReview reported that shops in the Netherlands also removed eggs with possible salmonella. The recall seeks to pull two million eggs from shelves after over 300 people got unwell from the batch.
