A member asked:
Hypothetical q.) you eat chicken with salmonella in it, you then got salmonellosis, you then recover and eat the same chicken again, reinfected again?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: Agree with Dr. Cattano. Does past infection with salmonellosis make a person immune? People can be reinfected with salmonellosis if they come into contact with the bacteria again. REF: https://www.health.ny.gov/diseases/communicable/salmonellosis/fact_sheet.htm
