Giải thích
Nontyphoidal Salmonella is commonly linked to poultry, eggs, and cross-contamination, with diarrhea, fever, and cramps appearing about 6 to 72 hours after eating. Cooking eggs and poultry to required temperatures and preventing cross-contact controls it. Hepatitis A causes jaundice, botulism causes paralysis, and Listeria most affects pregnant and immunocompromised people.
