In which situation does food hygiene become more important than usual?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: In a patient with low immunity
Option A is correct because weakened immunity reduces the body’s ability to control foodborne microorganisms. Safe water, clean hands and utensils, adequate cooking, separation of raw and cooked foods, correct storage, and avoidance of unsafe leftovers are especially important. Such precautions reduce infection risk for patients receiving intensive treatment or living with immune compromise.
