Article Synopsis
- Campylobacter infection typically begins in the jejunum and ileum, moving further down the digestive tract.
- The overall death rate is low, but it poses a higher risk to the elderly or those with existing health issues.
- In severe cases, antibiotics like macrolides and fluoroquinolones are recommended, but increasing resistance to quinolones, particularly in Spain, should be considered for effective treatment.
