Bacterial infections are more often associated with travel, comorbidities (the presence of one or more affliction concurrently), and foodborne illness4. If you want to name names, Salmonella, Campylobacter, Shigella, Shiga toxin–producing, Escherichia coli (enterohemorrhagic E. coli) are some of the more common bacteria found later in stool analysis3.
