​Salmonella causes food borne infection that is most commonly a result of eating contaminated eggs or poultry.

Step-by-step explanation:

This bacteria can get into egg and poultry in various ways. One is through the faecal matter, as this is present in the contaminated human or animals intestine, it passes to the egg when it sit in the egg.

Salmonella silently affects the ovaries of healthy chickens, even before the shells have been formed. This infection sometimes causes typhoid fever. Thorough cooking this bacteria can be killed and can decrease the chances of infection. The infection usually occurs 12-72hours after the consumption
