Prophylaxis | Salmonella

Prophylaxis

An important cornerstone of prophylaxis is to create good hygienic conditions, since in countries with poor hygienic conditions, a source of infection is drinking water contaminated with faeces. As a tourist in such countries you should avoid the consumption of uncooked food, ice cream and unboiled water.

Prognosis

Salmonella usually heals without problems. In rare cases, permanent excretion without symptoms can occur.
