A salmonella outbreak linked to spoiled eggs rendered at least 306 people sick in Belgium. Victims ate infected eggs. The illness spread as people consumed products made with contaminated eggs. News outlets such as Euronews.com, The Independent, and The Brussels Times reported the outbreak.

Authorities moved quickly to contain this. They issued a multi-nation recall of two million eggs to address the situation. DutchReview reported that shops in the Netherlands also recalled eggs with suspected salmonella. The recall works to pull two million eggs from shelves after over 300 people got unwell from the batch.
