Any food vendor, supermarket, etc. should be up in arms about this because as people get sick, who are they coming after: the person that sold them the efin food!

The investigation was closed by the Trump administration.

In any case, dumbf*&^, this will be the norm with the changes and firings coming from this administration. Widespread outbreaks with zero reporting or mitigation.

Congratulations, you stupid f*&^, your desire to turn the US into a failed state is coming true and you're still blaming the last guy...
