CDC media alert (October 30, 2025) on an active multistate Listeria outbreak tied to chicken fettuccine alfredo prepared meals; missing: cumulative case count, total recalled SKUs, geographic case distribution, and confirmed source linkage for 7 new illnesses, 6 hospitalizations, and 2 deaths (Hawaii, Oregon). NO-GO on treating existing recalls as full containment; reversal requires CDC confirmation that all new cases consumed only already-recalled products.
The recall boundary is unverified: CDC's investigation update states new illnesses may involve foods outside recalled products, while consumer guidance instructs only discarding recalled items — a direct internal contradiction between Sections 7 and 8. Confidence: 85/100 that this gap represents an active safety failure, not a drafting artifact.
