Health officials performed DNA sequencing on the morel mushroom samples collected from the restaurant, and identified the species as Morchella sextelata, a type of “true morel.” Samples of morel mushrooms collected after the illnesses occurred were also screened for pesticides, heavy metals, bacterial toxins, and pathogens. No significant findings were identified, according to the health department’s report.

But let's blame the mushrooms anyway. Too hard to look for what the cause actually was.

From what I saw in the posted story (written by “Coral Beach”, right), nobody even knows what the illness was, let alone the cause. Some investigation. Did they learn how from the Secret Service?
