The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) says recalled eggs are linked to a salmonella outbreak. The CDC and U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) are both investigating.

Across nine states, 65 people were infected with salmonella linked to eggs supplied by Milo's Poultry Farms, LLC. The illnesses started from May 23 to Aug. 10, according to a FDA alert issued Friday. 24 people have been hospitalized. No deaths have been reported.

"The true number of sick people in this outbreak is likely much higher than the number reported, and the outbreak may not be limited to the states with known illnesses," the CDC says. "This is because many people recover without medical care and are not tested for Salmonella. In addition, recent illnesses may not yet be reported as it usually takes 3 to 4 weeks to determine if a sick person is part of an outbreak."

The CDC investigation broke down the demographics of the 65 cases reported for the egg recall. People who contracted salmonella ages ranged from two to 88 years old. Fifty-six percent of the cases were females and 46% were male. The race majority for the 65 cases were white which accounted for 92%, followed by 5% African-American or Black and 3% Asian.
