Original: Warning from North Texas mom after baby contracts salmonella, likely from pumpkin
A mother in North Texas is warning other families after her baby contracted a salmonella infection, which health officials and the family believe was likely linked to contact with a pumpkin. The case comes as seasonal pumpkin activities pick up, raising concerns about bacteria on decorative gourds and pumpkins, especially for infants who touch them and then put their hands in their mouths.
Why now: Families are handling pumpkins for Halloween and fall activities, so a warning about salmonella risk to babies is timely and cautionary.
