It is transmitted by the use of food or water used by an infected person. Salmonella enterica is the name of bacteria spreading this disease.

Answer 4

Salmonella typhi can only attack humans, so the infection always comes from another human, either an ill person or a healthy carrier of the bacterium. The bacterium is passed on with water and foods and can withstand both drying and refrigeration. As it is necessary for someone to be exposed to a certain quantity of bacteria before symptoms occur, the storage of foods is also of great significance. They must be kept refrigerated and prepared correctly, as required by general hygiene, so that any bacteria present are not able to multiply significantly.

Answer 5

Typhoid fever is passed to others by fecal oral route. So the bacteria are in the feces of the patient and carriers of typhoid fever. The bacteria goes to your mouth by way of contaminated water, by way of hands and by way of houseflies to your food. You get typhoid after consumption of the bacteria.
