About E.Coli
E. coli O157:H7 is a potentially deadly bacterium that can cause dehydration, bloody diarrhea, and abdominal cramps 2-8 days (3-4 days, on average) after exposure. While most people recover within a week, some people develop a type of kidney failure called hemolytic uremic syndrome (HUS).
This condition can occur among people of any age but it is most common in children younger than 5-years-old and older adults. It is marked by easy bruising, pallor, and decreased urine output. People who experience these symptoms should seek emergency medical care immediately.
