Editing Botulism (section)

=== United Kingdom ===
The largest recorded outbreak of foodborne botulism in the United Kingdom occurred in June 1989. A total of 27 patients were affected; one patient died. Twenty-five of the patients had eaten one brand of hazelnut yogurt in the week before the onset of symptoms. Control measures included the cessation of all yogurt production by the implicated producer, the withdrawal of the firm's yogurts from sale, the recall of cans of the hazelnut conserve, and advice to the general public to avoid the consumption of all hazelnut yogurts.<ref>{{cite journal | vauthors = O'Mahony M, Mitchell E, Gilbert RJ, Hutchinson DN, Begg NT, Rodhouse JC, Morris JE | title = An outbreak of foodborne botulism associated with contaminated hazelnut yoghurt | journal = Epidemiology and Infection | volume = 104 | issue = 3 | pages = 389–95 | date = June 1990 | pmid = 2347382 | pmc = 2271776 | doi = 10.1017/s0950268800047403 }}</ref>
