Epidemiology Salmonella (non-typhoidal)
Salmonella, also known as Salmonellosis, is caused through many different point sources however the most prevalent being through food and proper or improper hygiene. The outbreak of this bacteria is a pandemic, as this epidemic effects everyone on a global level. According to the World Health Organization "550 million people fall ill each year, including 220 million children under the age of 5 years." Based off the given data, children under the age of 5 would be one of the most susceptible, as they are 40% of the cases reported each year. The most successful form of prevention comes from existing entities such as the FDA, and the United States Department of Agriculture, both creating standards and inspections to insure public safety in the U.S. However, many third world countries may be lacking these types of resources which in turn, increases the amount of outbreaks in their communities.
