Project Description
Food poisoning is one of the most ubiquitous medical issues Americans contend with, and the CDC estimates about 76 million cases a year. The vast majority of them, though, go unreported because they are either mild enough to treat without medical intervention, or because they are mistaken for the stomach flu or other illnesses. Bacteria, viruses, parasites and toxins can all cause symptoms, but only a couple microbes can truly threaten an otherwise healthy person.
