MARTENSVILLE, Sask. – The Saskatchewan Health Authority says people who ate food from a pizza restaurant near Saskatoon last month may have been exposed to typhoid fever.

It says people may have been exposed if they consumed products from the Domino’s in Martensville.

Anyone who got sick after eating food from the business between Oct. 11 and Oct. 19 is being asked to see a health-care professional or call the province’s HealthLine.
