The mortality rate for botulism can vary depending on the type and promptness of treatment, but it is generally estimated to be around 5-10% for foodborne botulism. However, if untreated, the mortality rate can be significantly higher, reaching up to 30-60%. With timely medical intervention, including the administration of antitoxin, the chances of recovery improve substantially. Infant botulism, which is more common, has a lower mortality rate, often less than 1%.
