食品伙伴网讯 据美国食品安全新闻网消息，经过调查发现，菲律宾因食用糖果造成的食物中毒事件的元凶为金黄色葡萄球菌。
菲律宾卫生部门称，食物中毒的原因很可能是糖果工厂的操作卫生未达标，工人手和汗水接污染糖果引发污染。
目前，本次疫情已造成1925人患病，大部分是儿童。截止周二，仍至少有66人在住院。
目前问题工厂已被菲律宾政府关停。
部分原文报道如下：
The illness outbreak connected to fruit candies that sickened nearly 2,000 people in the Philippines was likely caused by poor worker hygiene at the production facility, resulting in contamination by Staphylococcus aureus, according to newly released test results.
After health authorities ran tests of samples of candy in search of foodborne bacteria such as E. coli and Salmonella, results turned up Staphylococcus, a common bacteria often found on human skin and associated with dirty hands and body sweat in food facility settings.
