Multiple Multistate Outbreaks of Human Salmonella Infections Linked to Live Poultry in Backyard Flocks - February 25, 2013 - Digital Press kit

Most people can tell you that raw poultry can be contaminated with Salmonella and that they should wash hands after handling the raw meat, but they don’t know that live poultry can also have Salmonella.

It is important for people to know how to safely enjoy their backyard flocks. People of all ages should wash their hands right after touching baby and adult poultry or anything in the areas where the poultry lives and roams.
