What is salmonella?
Salmonella is bacteria that causes about 1.35 million infections, 26,500 hospitalizations and 420 deaths in the U.S. every year, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
Most people who become ill from salmonella have diarrhea, fever and stomach cramps, and symptoms usually begin six hours to six days after infection and last 4-7 days. Most people recover without specific treatment and should not take antibiotics, the CDC says, which are typically only used to treat people who have severe illness or are at risk for it.
Some people may become so severely ill from salmonella that they need to be hospitalized.
