Overview
Salmonella is a type of bacteria that causes foodborne illness, or food poisoning. Salmonella is responsible for over 1.4 million illnesses each year in the United States. It is commonly found in raw or undercooked eggs, poultry, meat, and unpasteurized dairy products. It can also spread from person-to-person contact or from animals to humans. Symptoms of salmonellosis include abdominal cramps, fever, vomiting, and diarrhea. If left untreated, it can lead to severe dehydration and, in some cases, death. To prevent getting sick, it is important to practice good hygiene, cook food thoroughly, and avoid contact with animals and their feces.
