- Abstract
This article explains that three outbreaks of Salmonellosis, involving those who came into contact with baby poultry, were discovered in the U.S. In Michigan, the Salmonellosis outbreak strain was isolated after samples were obtained from infected people who experienced such symptoms as diarrhea, bloody diarrhea, and vomiting. In a hatchery in Nebraska, two children were determined to have Salmonellosis after a culture of their stool was taken. Both children had handled chicks at the same Nebraska daycare center. The outbreak in Oregon involved four patients who had all been exposed to baby poultry before becoming ill.
