This Risk Profile considers Campylobacter jejuni and Campylobacter coli in raw milk from
cows, sheep, goats and buffaloes. Infection by C. jejuni or C. coli in humans usually results
in a self-limiting gastroenteritis which may or may not involve bloody diarrhoea. In a small
proportion of cases infection may progress to more serious autoimmune disorders or chronic
gastrointestinal diseases. On rare occasions infection may result in death.
