Prevention[edit]

Cooking meat before consumption will kill off the bacteria that cause Salmonellosis. Washing bloody hands before eating and drinking will remove the blood, preventing sickness. Not eating rotten food items or earthworms if not necessary

You can also eat Multivitamin Pills to keep your immune system strong.
