Fox News : reported that Costco sued by woman who contracted E. coli from tainted chicken

A Utah woman filed a lawsuit against Costco after she contracted E. coli from eating tainted chicken bought at the retail chain, claiming it left her with permanent health issues and ruined her life. Chloe Rodgerson, 20, said she got sick in October 2015 when she ate Costco's chicken salad, FOX13 reported. Nothing was adding up until we got a call from the FDA asking if we'd consumed Costco chicken salad," Rodgerson recalled. Rodgerson was one of 19 people sickened by the tainted chicken. She was also diagnosed with hemolytic uremic syndrome, a rare disorder that only affects 5 percent of E. coli patients.

SALT LAKE CITY — An aspiring Broadway actress says her promising career ended when she became infected with E. coli bacteria in chicken salad bought at Costco in Lehi. The Highland woman faces a lifetime of health treatment and medication, and she's limited in her physical activities, according to the lawsuit. The lawsuit claims Costco prepared and sold "adulterated" chicken and breached its duty to prevent the food from becoming contaminated with E. coli. Rodgerson's father bought chicken salad on two occasions in October 2015 at the Costco in Lehi. In February, Rodgerson received a kidney transplant from her husband, Josh Batstone, whom she married the month before.
