This is a public notice from CDC. It covers various suppliers of turkey products in the US. 40 people out of 90 reported cases required hospitalization.
I'm posting here because the notice mentions that two of the people who became ill "fed raw pet food". I don't see any commercial raw brands named, so I'm assuming that it was homemade raw food from normal grocery suppliers.
It's fairly common for the humans to fall ill from salmonella while the pets do just fine, except for extremely rare cases. Using common sense sanitation methods and keeping raw food away very from the very young (or very old, immune-compromised, or anyone who for some reason cannot follow safe food handling methods) could prevent people from getting ill when feeding pets a raw diet.
