Some people are more susceptible to food poisoning:
Food poisoning or foodborne illness can affect anyone
who eats food contaminated by bacteria, viruses,
parasites, toxins, or other substances. But, certain groups
of people are more susceptible to foodborne illness. This
means that they are more likely to get sick from
contaminated food and, if they do get sick, the effects are
much more serious. Some of these groups of people
include pregnant women, older adults, and persons with
chronic illnesses.
