CDC media alert (December 23, 2025) on a 64-case, 22-state Salmonella outbreak linked to raw oysters (missing: serotype, epidemic curve, geographic clustering, hospitalization baseline, interview data for 58% of cases). No-go on source attribution; reversal requires ≥80% case interview completion showing stable oyster-exposure rate and an identified common supplier.
Vehicle and source attribution are conflated: public guidance names raw oysters as a confirmed risk (Strengths/Weaknesses sections), while the investigation status confirms no common source is identified — two distinct evidentiary standards treated as one. Confidence: 80/100. This contradiction appears between Section 7 and the public-facing key-points block, and a recall decision made on current data could implicate the wrong supplier.
