Salmonella is a bacterium that can cause serious and sometimes fatal infections, particularly in young children, frail or elderly people, and others with weakened immune systems.

In rare cases, the infection can enter the bloodstream and produce more severe illnesses such as arterial infections, endocarditis, and arthritis.
