 Jordan, who plays Winn Schott on TV show "Supergirl," posted an
Instagram video on Thursday of himself on a hospital bed, saying
that food he ate at a Chipotle made him severely sick and that he
"almost died," according to a People.com report.
"There have been no other reported claims of illness at the
restaurant where (Jordan) dined. We take all claims seriously, but
we can't confirm any link to Chipotle, given the details he shared
with us," Chipotle spokesman Chris Arnold said via email.
Chipotle is still recovering from a string of food safety lapses
that started in late 2015, including a recent norovirus outbreak at
a Virginia restaurant.
Jordan, through a spokesman, declined further comment.
The Denver-based burrito chain's stock has fallen about 60 percent
since an E. coli outbreak in 2015.
