Does this press statement from CDPH explain why it never alerted the public to 165 people with Salmonella linked to Raw Milk?
Actually, No.
Readers, can you help me understand why CDPH would not tell the public that there had been an outbreak liked to raw milk with at least 165 sick, 20 hospitalized with nearly 40% being children 5 or younger?
Here is the press statement:

CDPH takes its charge to protect public health seriously and works closely with all partners when a foodborne illness outbreak is identified. After being alerted by San Diego County Public Health last October about multiple Salmonellosis cases, CDPH conducted a robust public health investigation in concert with local officials and the California Department of Food and Agriculture (CDFA), which regulates raw milk producers in California. On October 24, 2023, CDPH posted a food recall notice on its website (see attachment). (That notice was later archived upon conclusion of the investigation.) The department also notified the public of the recall on social media multiple times (see links below). CDPH, working with CDFA asked firm management at Raw Farm for a voluntary recall. Raw Farm was cooperative and posted a recall on October 25. Because the majority of illnesses were reported in San Diego county, San Diego County Public Health led the public notification process (media releases are available on their website, including one on October 20 and October 25). The outbreak and case investigation handled by CDPH ended on May 4, 2024. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) was aware of the investigation and assisted with some coordination with cases in other states.
