Twenty Years of Salmonella from the Lawyers and Attorneys at Marler Clark

By Bill Marler

I think there are two place where you can find information on Salmonella outbreaks that have happened in the United States in the last 20 years.  One is www.outbreakdatabase.com and the other is below.   Salmonella infection occurs when the bacteria are ingested, typically from food derived from infected food-animals, but it can also occur by ingesting the feces of an infected animal or person. Food sources include raw or undercooked eggs/egg products, raw milk or raw milk products, contaminated water, meat and meat products, and poultry. Raw fruits and vegetables contaminated during slicing have been implicated in several foodborne outbreaks. We are involved in representing families of children who have suffered from this bacterium.  Severe complications like Reiter's Syndrome (Reactive Arthritis) and Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) may occur.
