Salmonella is a bacteria that can make people sick, and most types cause an illness called salmonellosis, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

Most people with salmonella infection experience symptoms such as diarrhea, fever and stomach cramps, which may occur hours to days after infection, the CDC states, though some do not develop symptoms for several weeks. In rare cases the infection can be fatal.

Infants, those ages 65 and older and people with weakened immune systems are more likely to develop severe infections, according to the CDC.
