Chances are you will never know that you have contracted a foodborne illness in your lifetime. But if you do, contact the injury attorneys at Neblett, Beard & Arsenault to help you.
Daily there are recalls of food that are contaminated with many 'common' food viruses such as
Campylobacter
Salmonella
E. coli O157:H7
Calicivirus, or Norwalk-like virus
Shigella
Hepatitis A
Giardia Lamblia
Cryptospordia
Clostridium Botulinum
Many go unnoticed by many consumers due to their "resistance," they normally pass it off as the flu (the symptoms resemble the flu).
Unfortunately, the young and old or those with weakened immune systems are those most at risk to contracting and developing severe reactions from foodborne illnesses.
Foodborne illnesses can develop into fatal infections in those that have compromised immune systems. It is very important to keep informed when it comes to recalls.
