Giải thích
Shiga toxin-producing E. coli (STEC), such as O157:H7, is associated with undercooked ground beef and can cause bloody diarrhea and hemolytic uremic syndrome, especially in children. NYC requires ground meat be cooked to 158°F to destroy it. Norovirus and Staph cause vomiting-type illness, and Vibrio is tied to raw shellfish.
