Salmonellosis is often associated with poultry meat or foods containing eggs. While it is more common in developing countries, it can still occur in developed countries. It is not a food intoxication, but rather a bacterial infection caused by Salmonella. Treatment with antimicrobial drugs is not always necessary, as most cases of salmonellosis resolve on their own within a week.
