What are the symptoms of B. cereus infection in immunosuppressed individuals?
B. cereus infection can cause a range of symptoms in immunosuppressed individuals, including fever, chills, diarrhea, abdominal pain, and nausea/vomiting. In severe cases, it can lead to sepsis, respiratory distress, and even death. Immunocompromised individuals, such as those with HIV/AIDS or undergoing chemotherapy, are particularly susceptible to infection and should take extra precautions to avoid exposure to B. cereus.
