Real Raw Milk Facts

Updated Outbreak Tables

These charts and tables were compiled by the Real Raw Milk Facts working group through searches of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevent ion’s (CDC) online foodborne disease outbreak database (1998-2010). Because the CDC database has about a two-year lag period, preliminary data was gathered from government and dairy industry press releases, reports, and newsletters to document recent outbreaks (2011-present). Information on farm type and size was taken from the implicated dairy’s website, state reports, and articles when available.
