Yet while the numbers are declining, the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Pre- vention still estimates that about 76 million Americans contract foodborne illnesses each year.

But unsurprisingly, it is adults, adolescents, and older children who are the most common carriers of infection to more vulnerable infants and children in their own homes. Milder symptoms usually affect all age groups, but research points out that mild disease is increasing even among dren. chil- school-ag- e far this year, unusually high numbers of pertussis-infectechildren in Texas, ArSo d kansas, Washington, Ohio, Minnesota, Iowa, and Virginia show that the disease is on the rise.
