McDonald's E.coli outbreak: Kidney failure reported, fast-food chain sued, earnings mixed
McDonald's was sued on Tuesday by consumers in a proposed class action stemming from the E.coli outbreak linked to onions in the fast-food chain's Quarter Pounders, as per a Reuters report.
In a complaint filed in Chicago federal court, Amanda McCray and William Michael Kraft said they experienced many symptoms associated with E.coli infection after buying Quarter Pounders this month. They said they would not have bought their burgers had McDonald's disclosed the risk of contamination.
The lawsuit seeks damages for all people in the United States who bought Quarter Pounders contaminated with E.coli.
Meanwhile, a 15-year-old high school freshman is hospitalized with severe complications of food poisoning after eating McDonald's Quarter Pounder hamburgers three times in the weeks before a deadly E. coli outbreak was detected. Kamberlyn Bowler, of Grand Junction, Colorado, had to be flown 250 miles to a hospital near Denver in mid-October, where she received dialysis for 10 days in an urgent effort to save her kidneys, AP reported.
