More BC E-coli connected to X-L Foods plant

Two new cases of E-coli in British Columbia have been linked to a massive beef recall across Canada.

That brings the total in BC to three and nation-wide to 15.

The BC Centre for Disease Control has received confirmation of lab tests, after reviewing 11 cases of E-coli recorded last month.

The first victim is a foreigner visiting Canada, who consumed beef in both Alberta and BC.

The second is an adult who ate tainted meat bought in the Fraser Valley.
