Cameron and his family hosted a big party for the Superbowl with a large spread of different food. He made his famous hot chicken wings and ranch dip for the big game that were placed out early for a pre-game get together. After the game and once everyone left, Cameron noticed there were some leftovers of both remaining, so Cameron place them into the refrigerator. Cameron finished off both of them for lunch then next day. Three days later, Cameron started to have a headache followed by stomach pain and severe diarrhea. Cameron noticed that there was blood in his stool, so he scheduled an appointment with his family doctor. The doctor collected a stool sample and identified a Gram negative helical shaped bacteria. The doctor then sent the sample off for further culture-independent diagnostic testing.
