Shigella is more common than many people think. Many holidaymakers on cruise ships and package tour hotels in The Dominican Republic and Egypt have fallen ill with shigella over the past few years.  Facts about Shigella infection include:

Shigella has an incubation period of 1 – 7 days.
Common symptoms include: Bloody diarrhoea.
Shigella is found in the human gastrointestinal tract.


The disease is passed on by faecal oral, and is often contracted in households or school containing young children.  Shigella is occasionally spread by food and water.

If you return to the UK after a holiday in the Dominican Republic, Egypt or elsewhere, and you think you are suffering from Shigella, seek immediate medical help.  If you have contracted Shigella through no fault of your own, it is vital you contact a personal injury solicitor as soon as possible who can assess your claim and give you free advice about how to proceed.

Salmonella – a common holiday illness

Salmonella in holiday hotels and on board cruise ships in The Dominican Republic, Egypt, The Mediterranean and The Baltics can cause major problems for you and your family.  If you have suffered Salmonella on holiday during the past three years, through no fault of your own, you should contact a personal injury solicitor as soon as you return to the UK. 


Facts about Salmonella include:

It has an incubation period of 12 - 72 hours.
Symptoms include: Diarrhoea, vomiting and fever.


It can be found in the gastrointestinal tract of wild and domestic animals, including poultry, and occasionally in humans.
Transmission is mainly from foodstuffs such as red and white meat, raw eggs, milk and dairy products, plus the contamination of cooked food by raw food or failing to cook food through.  Salmonella is spread from person or by contact with infected animals.
Food handlers must always practice good hygiene to prevent outbreaks of Salmonella.  If you have been on holiday to Egypt, The Dominican Republic or any other worldwide destination and you are suffering Salmonella symptoms, seek immediate medical help when you return to the UK.  If contracting Salmonella was someone else´s fault, contact a personal injury solicitor as soon as possible in the UK, who will advise you of your rights regarding compensation.
