Nearly 2 million egg cartons have been recalled across the country after being linked to a salmonella outbreak that has sickened 79 people, according to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration and the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. 

Of the 79 who became sick after eating the eggs, 21 were hospitalized. 

The August Egg Company of Hilmar, California, on Friday decided to voluntarily recall 1.7 million cartons of a dozen brown cage-free and brown certified organic eggs distributed between Feb. 3 and May 15 in Arizona, California, Illinois, Indiana, Nebraska, New Mexico, Nevada, Washington and Wyoming.

Salmonella poisoning can result in diarrhea, nausea, stomach cramps and fever and can start anywhere from hours to a week after ingesting contaminated food. 

It can also be fatal in young children, the elderly and people with weakened immune systems. 

The CDC advises throwing out any recalled eggs and washing any surfaces that might have come into contact with the eggs.
