The recalled papayas were distributed to markets and grocery stores in the state of California from August 10 until August 29, 2017.

The FDA issued the recall after a papaya that was not sold tested positive for Salmonella on September 8, 2017. Infections with Salmonella can cause fever, diarrhea, nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, and sometimes severe complications:

Salmonella infection can result in the organism entering the bloodstream and producing serious diseases such as arterial infections (ie, infected aneurysms), endocarditis and arthritis.”
