You may not want to nibble on your Nestle raw cookie dough. Nestle is recalling its refrigerated Toll House Cookie Dough after the Centers for Disease Control investigation showed "a strong association" between eating raw refrigerated cookie dough made by Nestle and the E. coli illnesses of 65 people in 29 states since March.
Nestles has temporarily stopped making the refrigerated dough products while the FDA investigates their Danville, Virginia factory where all the recalled items are made.

A respiratory therapist who may have exposed 33 babies to the H1N1 virus at Women's Hospital in Greensboro has tested positive for the virus.

So far, none of the infants have shown any ‘flu-like’ symptoms and are being treated with Tamiflu.
