A multi-state E. coli outbreak has at least one case in Utah.
The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention says the Utah case is one of 49 lab-confirmed cases of the bacterial infection linked to a beef outbreak.
The CDC says 41 of the cases are in Michigan and Ohio.
The illnesses were first reported on May 27. The outbreak has been traced to beef sold last month in Ohio and Michigan Kroger supermarkets.
Then this month the E. Coli traveled to other states including some Smith's stores in Utah.
