Abstract
A study was conducted in the hope of identifying risk factors associated with a 10-year epidemic of salmonellosis among infants on Guam. Salmonella bacteria were found in soil and vacuum cleaner samples suggesting that Salmonella infections may result from contamination introduced into homes from the outdoor environment by mechanical means rather than by the ingestion of contaminated animal-origin foods.Entities:
