A member asked:
What infectious disease could a patient have if bacillus cereus are present?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Food poisoning: Bacillus cereus causes food poisoning. It often presents with the "fried rice syndrome": a bout of vomiting after eating improperly cooked, refrigerated, or reheated rice. It can also cause diarrhea. It gets better on its own.
