An E. coli outbreak linked to tainted ground beef has spread to 10 states, with 156 people testing positive for infection, according to the Centers for Disease Control (CDC).

“At this time, no common supplier, distributor, or brand of ground beef has been identified,” the CDC wrote in an update issued Tuesday.

Of the 156 people with reported cases, 20 had been hospitalized. There have been no deaths linked to this E. coli outbreak, according to the CDC's notice.

The investigation into the spread of Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli O103 infections began on March 28, after health officials in both Kentucky and Georgia reported outbreaks to the CDC. So far, there have been 65 reported cases and 33 reported cases in Kentucky and Georgia, respectively.

Additional cases of E. coli infection were later reported in Florida (3 as of Tuesday), Illinois (1), Indiana (1), Minnesota (1), Mississippi (1), Ohio (8), Tennessee (41) and Virginia (2).
