Older people and children particularly at risk
Salmonella are bacteria that are most likely to enter the human digestive tract via food (e.g., raw meat, ice cream, mayonnaise) and multiply there. Typical symptoms of Salmonella infection are sudden diarrhea, headache and abdominal pain, mild fever and vomiting. In otherwise healthy patients, the disease is usually harmless.
