奇波雷餐厅周二表示，已将明尼苏达州沙门氏菌暴发相关的墨西哥辣椒从门店下架，并表示已更换为其他供应商的产品。
这家连锁餐厅在一份声明中表示，此次下架决定是在针对此次暴发的公共卫生调查期间作出的。奇波雷称，此次疫情已影响“明尼苏达州的多家餐饮零售商”。
明尼苏达州卫生部表示，已确认110例与此次沙门氏菌暴发相关的病例。在接受调查采访的84名明尼苏达州居民中，有75人称曾在奇波雷餐厅就餐。该机构表示，这些顾客的就餐时间为6月14日至7月14日，其中大多数人在6月24日至7月2日期间就餐。
“出于高度谨慎，我们主动将墨西哥辣椒从门店下架，并更换为其他供应商的产品，”奇波雷方面表示。“明尼苏达州卫生部已确认目前对奇波雷餐厅没有其他担忧。我们正配合公共卫生部门开展相关工作。”
美国食品药品监督管理局正在调查“多种食材”
美国食品药品监督管理局表示，已于7月22日针对“多种食材”启动溯源调查，以应对美国疾病控制与预防中心及各州官员确认的沙门氏菌聚集性病例。
“与此同时，奇波雷餐厅正与州政府合作伙伴协调，主动审查其供应链。FDA感谢该公司对调查的配合，如有切实可行的公共卫生最新进展，我们将提供更多信息，”FDA表示。
奇波雷餐厅的股价在周二下午下跌3.28美元，跌幅8.8%，收于34.18美元。

此次股价下跌之际，消费者对食品安全问题依然敏感，此前持续数周的圆孢子虫病暴发已导致全美数千人患病。尽管沙门氏菌和圆孢子虫是不同的病原体，但近期的疫情已对部分新鲜农产品及相关连锁餐厅的需求造成了压力。
疫情会扩散吗？
“鉴于奇波雷餐厅采取的措施，我们并不担心奇波雷餐厅的情况。但如果受污染的食品仍在其他地方供应，疫情有可能持续蔓延，”明尼苏达州卫生部高级流行病学家主管卡洛塔·梅杜斯说道。“我们预计病例数还会增加，即便相关病例是在几周前出现的，因为我们需要一段时间才能在监测中发现病例。”
在圆孢子虫病暴发之后，主打生菜菜单的杂货店和连锁餐厅的客流量出现下滑。根据零售数据分析平台Placer.ai向哥伦比亚广播公司新闻提供的数据，曾因圆孢子虫病暴发召回生菜的塔可钟餐厅，其客流量在7月中旬下降了30%。
据梅奥诊所介绍，沙门氏菌感染后8至72小时内会出现腹泻、发烧和胃痉挛症状，大多数健康人群无需治疗即可在数天至一周内康复。
Chipotle pulls jalapenos in Minnesota salmonella outbreak after dozens fall ill

Chipotle on Tuesday said it has pulled jalapenos linked to a salmonella outbreak in Minnesota from its restaurants, adding that it has replaced the peppers with product from another grower.
In a statement, the restaurant chain said it made the decision amid a public health investigation into the outbreak, which Chipotle said had impacted “several food service retailers in Minnesota.”
The Minnesota Department of Health said it has identified 110 cases linked to the salmonella outbreak. Of the 84 Minnesotans interviewed as part of the investigation, 75 reported eating at Chipotle. The agency said the customers ate at the restaurant between June 14 and July 14, with most eating there between June 24 and July 2.
“Out of an abundance of caution, we proactively removed the jalapenos from our restaurants and replaced them with product from different growers,” Chipotle said. “The Minnesota Department of Health has confirmed it has no ongoing concerns with Chipotle. We are cooperating with public health authorities in their efforts.”
FDA examining “multiple ingredients”
The Food and Drug Administration said it initiated a traceback investigation on July 22 of “multiple ingredients” in response to a cluster of salmonella cases identified by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and state officials.
“At the same time, Chipotle, in coordination with state partners, proactively began reviewing its supply chain. FDA appreciates the company’s cooperation with the investigation and will provide additional information if and when there is an actionable public health update,” the FDA said.
Shares of Chipotle slid $3.28, or 8.8%, to $34.18 on Tuesday afternoon.

The stock decline comes as consumers remain sensitive to food safety issues following the weekslong cyclospora outbreak that has sickened thousands of people nationwide. Although salmonella and cyclospora are different pathogens, recent outbreaks have weighed on demand for some fresh produce and restaurant chains associated with those foods.
Outbreak to spread?
“Given the measures Chipotle put in place, we are not concerned about Chipotle. But it is possible that the outbreak is ongoing if the contaminated food item is being served elsewhere,” said Carlota Medus, a senior epidemiologist supervisor with the Minnesota Department of Health. “We do expect the case count to increase even if the illnesses occurred a couple of weeks ago, since it takes us a while to detect cases in surveillance.”
Following the cyclospora outbreak, grocers and restaurant chains featuring lettuce-heavy menus have experienced a drop-off in visits. Visits to Taco Bell, which had served lettuce under recall due to the cyclospora outbreak, saw its foot traffic drop by 30% in mid-July, according to data provided to CBS News from retail analytics platform Placer.ai.
Salmonella can cause diarrhea, fever and stomach cramps within eight to 72 hours after exposure, according to the Mayo Clinic, which said most healthy people recover within days to a week without treatment.
