Share holiday meals with relatives, friends and neighbors, but make sure not to invite foodborne illnesses to the table. Foodborne illnesses can bring on severe symptoms and lead to hospitalizations or, in extreme cases, even prove fatal. Each year, about 3,000 deaths are attributed to contaminated food. Symptoms may happen within minutes and the sick person may have nausea, vomiting, diarrhea or fever at first.
