Upon physical examination at thehospital, he is found to have an elevated pulse rate and a lowered blood pressure. He is admitted and placed on an IV drip with antibiotics. Stool and blood culturesare collected that reveal a gram-negative rod, which grows on MacConkey agar as clear colonies (lactose negative). On Salmonella/Shigella plates it produces blacktopcolonies.1.What is the patient infected with? Explain what important factors led you to the diagnosis.2. How is this bacterium spread?3. The patient is a cook. What precautions or actions should be taken before he is allowed to return to work?
