FARLEY HEALTH PRODUCTS — A CASE HISTORY

Abstract

Just before Christmas 1985, considerable public concern was aroused when Ostermilk baby foods and some other milk products were withdrawn following an outbreak of salmonella food poisoning. The manufacturer was the Plymouth‐based Farley Health Products although the factory where the problem occurred was in Kendal, Cumbria. The detailed account of the outbreak is given in a recent report in The Lancet (1987). The report is interpreted from a basis of sound personal knowledge.
