    SYMPTOMS OF SALMONELLA INFECTION

    The illness usually lasts 4 to 7 days, and most people recover without treatment.
    In some people, the illness may be so severe that the patient needs to be hospitalized. Salmonella infection may spread from the intestines to the bloodstream and then to other places in the body.
    Children younger than 5 years, adults 65 years and older, and people with weakened immune systems are more likely to have a severe illness.
