Babies & Toddlers

Keeping Babies & Toddlers Safe from Foodborne Illness

Children are disproportionately affected by serious foodborne illness, representing half of all hospitalizations for foodborne illness in the United States each year.

Children under age five are three times more likely to be hospitalized with Salmonella infection than other people. Kidney failure strikes one out of seven children under age five who are diagnosed with E. coli O157 infection. (Source: Centers for Disease Control and Prevention)
