US closes investigation into E. coli outbreak linked to onions in McDonald’s Quarter Pounders
SUMMARY: The U.S. government has concluded its investigation into an E. coli outbreak linked to McDonald’s Quarter Pounder hamburgers, which affected 104 people across 14 states. The outbreak, traced to yellow onions from Taylor Farms, led to one death and multiple hospitalizations. McDonald’s temporarily halted Quarter Pounder sales before identifying the onions as the cause and resuming sales with a new supplier. Despite the safety resolution, the company faces lawsuits, including one from a Montana family whose daughter was hospitalized. McDonald’s has pledged $100 million to recover lost business, though customer trust has been shaken.

Stealth destroyer to be home for 1st hypersonic weapon on a US warship
SUMMARY: The U.S. is developing the “Conventional Prompt Strike” hypersonic weapon for the Zumwalt-class destroyers, enabling long-range strikes. Each ship will have 12 missiles, traveling at speeds seven to eight times the speed of sound. Despite criticism over its $7.5 billion cost and canceled gun system, the Zumwalt remains the Navy’s most advanced surface warship, featuring electric propulsion and stealthy design. The hypersonic weapons are costly, with $18 billion required for 300 units, but provide the ability to strike from thousands of kilometers away, making them a crucial national security priority, despite concerns over their cost-effectiveness.
