We are investigating an E. coli outbreak connected with the University of Guelph foodservice operation. We would like to talk to anyone who:

• ate any food prepared at the University of Guelph from July 21, 2008 to now

AND

• has had or currently has diarrhea, stomach cramps, nausea or vomiting.

Please call Wellington-Dufferin-Guelph Public Health at 1-877-884-8653.

If you or a family member have any of the symptoms, it is important to wash your hands often. Good handwashing after going to the bathroom and before preparing food will help prevent the spread of the bacteria.

For more information about E. coli go to www.wdghu.org.
