An E. coli outbreak associated with McDonald's quarter pounders has affected at least 10 states, particularly concentrated in Colorado and Nebraska. So far, 49 individuals have reported illness, resulting in 10 hospitalizations and one death, prompting the CDC to issue warnings about the outbreak's potential spread.
