Botulism is often fatal. It differs from other food poisoning because it usually develops without gastrointestinal symptoms and occurs from 18hrs to 1 week after ingestion. Approx. two thirds of botulism cases are fatal, usually from delayed diagnosis and respiratory complications. For those who do survive, recovery is very slow.
The symptoms usually last for about one week
1 week

In theory the time is depends on a number of factors including the air temperature at the time, how cold the food was when refrigeration failed. In practice food that may have been thawed (un refrigerated) is usually thrown out rather than take the chance of food poisoning that may or may not happen if the food is cooked.
Two or Three days at the most. Any longer than that and you will risk getting food poisoning from eating it.
food poisoning is considered acute. because it is a short term effect. it only last a day or so. depending on how bad it is. you can be treated at ER if necessary etc. chronic is something that has a long term effect such as diabetes, liver dysfunction etc.
No. Poisoning of any kind can only be contracted by eating the poison whether it's food that contains the poison or something else.

Yes, and I am living proof. I had food Poisoning the third week of November 2011. I am still suffering with diarrhea and pains in my stomach. I would like to know how long this will last. This is ruined my holidays and going out to enjoy a good meal because I am so afraid of getting good poisoning again. I am very careful when I cook meals at home and now I don't how I can rid of this fear
For as long as they last.
