The infections of children caused by C. jejuni/coli are mainly transferred via three infection chains: (1) direct contact with C.jejuni coli-contaminated feces; (2) consumption of contaminated meat which was cooked insufficiently; (3) consumption of food which was contaminated by e.g. the mother during preparation of the childrens meat. The common characteristics of these chains are insufficient hygienic precautions.
