write out a detailed summary on E.Coli. Questions below will help yu frame your summary.
Please describe the bacterium. What is its shape and size? Is it Gram-positive or negative? Pictures are always fun! If you can find a microscopic image – include it.
What is/are the reservoir(s)? e.g. water, food, human, etc.
Are there parameters needed for infection? (Temperature, pH)
What is/are the mode(s) of transmission. If it's foodborne - is it linked to a specific food?
How many cases occur each year? In the US and/or worldwide and/or in the County where you live
Has it caused any outbreaks or epidemics?
