LANSING, Mich. (AP) — Michigan officials warn of a rising number of salmonella cases. The Michigan Department of Health and Human Services on Monday reported 20 cases since March 2 through direct contact with live baby chicks or ducklings. Six of those people were hospitalized. The department's chief medical executive, Dr. Eden Wells, says in a release that raising chicks and fresh eggs can get people sick even though it can be "fun and educational."
