The California Department of Food and Agriculture will increase testing frequency to twice per week at Raw Farm's retail locations following this detection.

Raw Farm previously faced contamination issues, including an E. coli outbreak in February and a salmonella outbreak in October 2023 that affected 165 people.

The virus has been detected in 24 of California's 28 wastewater systems, including sites in Santa Clara County such as Palo Alto, San Jose, Gilroy, and Sunnyvale.

No illnesses linked to the affected raw milk products have been reported, though the state has implemented additional testing as a second line of consumer protection.
