One person in England has died linked to the ongoing E.coli outbreak, the UK Health Security Agency (UKHSA) has said.
Data released last week from the Government agency showed that there have been 45 further cases of E.coli infection as of June 18, taking the total number of confirmed cases across the UK since the outbreak began to 256.
Health officials have been working to track down the source of the current outbreak, as this particular strain can make people seriously unwell.
Three companies have pulled their products from major supermarkets and retail chains over fears of contamination.
