Its true as in the boy had medical problems. The likelyhood of an infant getting salmonella within hours of coming home is unlikely. Unless the parents were rubbing the bottle nipples on the uro's excrement. My guess is the mother gave the child the bacteria through breastmilk or not washing hands (eating raw eggs in icecream etc) and passing it on that way.

Regardless its typical of everyone ignorant to immediately pass the blame off on an animal rather then the PEOPLE involved trying to find the true culprit.

I have 4 kids of my own. ranging from 26 days shy of 6 to 6 months of age. None have ever had an issue, never will. I practice common sense.

Sorry if I sound harsh regarding a story with an ill child. Just irritates me regardless of the situation for blame to be cast so quickly.
