    What it is

    Foodborne pathogens can cause outbreaks linked to food or water. Agencies publish investigations and recalls.

    Symptoms (general)

    Common symptoms can include nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, abdominal pain, or fever depending on the organism.

    How it spreads

    Transmission is often through contaminated food, water, or infected food handlers in outbreak settings.

    Prevention (general)

    Follow food safety guidance from health agencies; this site links to official notices rather than giving kitchen or medical instructions.
