Germany – “ANKER herring in jelly”- Salmonella

Salmonella disease manifests itself within a few days after infection with diarrhoea, abdominal pain and occasionally vomiting and a slight fever. The symptoms usually subside on their own after a few days. In particular, infants, small children, pregnant women, the elderly and people with a weakened immune system can develop more severe illnesses. Anyone who has eaten this food and develops severe or persistent symptoms should seek medical attention and report possible salmonella infection. It makes no sense to seek preventive medical treatment without symptoms. Further information on the pathogen can be found here: http://www.infection-protection.de/erregersteckbriefe/salmonellen.
