    Minnesota health officials are investigating a salmonella outbreak that has sickened at least 45 and that they believe is connected to Chipotle restaurants in the state.

    Currently, 45 people have been reported sickened in the outbreak and officials are still unsure what the exact source of the contamination was. People sickened ranged in age from 15 to 67 years old, and five were hospitalized, according to the Minnesota Department of Health, which noted that all those infected are recovering.

    This outbreak is not related to an ongoing salmonella outbreak linked to cucumbers, health officials said, noting that the two outbreaks were caused by different strains of the disease.
