What the coverage agrees on, and where it splits

This view is generated from the clustered articles, so it is best read as a map of coverage rather than a replacement for the source reporting.

Broadly agreed
  • Both articles from El Tiempo confirm the outbreak is active across multiple US states with confirmed infections and hospitalisations.
Contested framing
  • No divergence detected between the two El Tiempo articles; both treat it as a factual public health reporting event.
Quality check

Outbreak scope and symptom profile are documented; food source and precise infection counts are missing.

  • Outbreak across multiple US states (Michigan, New York, Texas) is confirmed.
  • Symptom profile (persistent diarrhoea) and diagnostic requirements are documented.
  • Specific food source responsible is flagged correctly as unconfirmed; no recall is reported.
  • Number of confirmed infections is reported as 'hundreds' but exact figure is unavailable.
