“We would estimate that 1,592 people have been affected by this event. The ones that we don’t know about may have had mild or moderate symptoms and had those resolve at home without seeking medical care,” April Hexemer said from Guelph, Ont. Investigators tested specimens from those infected and found 16 cases had matching genetic features, providing strong evidence that those who got sick were exposed to the same product.
