Food Poisoning
Allentown Personal Injury Attorney
Food poisoning occurs when food or water is contaminated with certain bacteria, toxins, viruses, or parasites. Once ingested, these enter the body and can cause serious side effects and illnesses, including vomiting, diarrhea, fever, and abdominal cramping. E. coli, hepatitis A, listeria, salmonella, and botulism are all types of food poisoning.
There is no question that food poisoning is one of the worst types of illnesses one can experience. There seems to be no relief, and in some cases food poisoning can lead to permanent or even fatal injury.
