However, in serious cases of food poisoning, hospitalization may be necessary. Thoroughly wash hands before handling food. Wash hands after using the toilet, changing diapers, smoking, blowing your nose, coughing, or sneezing. Wash hands after touching raw meat, seafood, poultry, or eggs before working with any other foods. Do not use wooden cutting boards for cutting raw fish, poultry, or meat.
Plastic boards are easier to sanitize.
Thoroughly clean any surface or utensil after each use. Cook poultry, beef, and eggs thoroughly before eating. Do not eat or drink foods made from raw or undercooked eggs, poultry, meat, or unpasteurized milk or other dairy products made from unpasteurized milk. Wash all produce thoroughly before eating.
