Full list of recalled products from sandwich suppliers linked to UK E. coli outbreak

The sandwich and salad maker Greencore Group, which supplies stores such as Asda and Sainsbury's has recalled a number of products, ITV News' Ian Woods reports

Sandwiches, wraps and salads sold at a number of major UK supermarkets are being recalled because of a potential link to an E. coli outbreak that has left people in hospital.

Officials from manufacturers Greencore Group, Samworth Brothers Manton Wood and THIS! said the move was a "precautionary measure".

E. coli is usually harmless bacteria found in the gut of humans and animals, however people infected with strains like Stec can become very ill.

As of June 11, the number of cases associated with the Stec outbreak was 211, an increase of 98 since a previous update from UK Health Security Agency (UKHSA) on June 6. Based on information from 160 cases to date, 42% were admitted to hospital.

Earlier this month, the agency confirmed at least 37 people had been admitted to hospital following the E. coli outbreak, which it believed to be linked to food.

Whole genome sequencing of samples showed the majority of the 113 cases reported across the UK between May 25 and June 4 were part of a single outbreak. Some 147 cases were confirmed in England, with 27 in Wales, 35 in Scotland and two in Northern Ireland who believe they fell ill in England.

The Food Standards Agency (FSA) said Greencore Group was recalling products from retailers including Boots, Asda, Co-op, Aldi and Amazon because of "possible contamination with E.coli".

Darren Whitby, Head of Incidents at the FSA described the move as a "precautionary measure" taken "in response to findings from investigations by the Food Standards Agency (FSA), Food Standards Scotland (FSS) and UK Health Security Agency (UKHSA)".

“Infections caused by STEC bacteria can cause severe bloody diarrhoea and, in some cases, more serious complications. We therefore advise any consumers who have any of these products not to eat them," he added.

He said the FSA "won't hesitate to take action" if food is not safe.
