Salmonella Food Poisoning
The bacteria Salmonella can cause serious and sometimes deadly food poisoning infections, especially in young children, elderly adults, and people with vulnerable immune systems.
The symptoms of Salmonella infection include fever, diarrhea (which may be bloody), nausea, vomiting and abdominal pain.
In rare case, Salmonella can get into the bloodstream and cause a severe complication, such as arterial infections (i.e., infected aneurysms), endocarditis and arthritis.
