WHO says 8 weeks, adjusted:
"There appear to be two distinct infant risk groups for E. sakazakii
infection: premature
infants who develop bacteraemia after one month of age, and term infants
who develop meningitis during the
neonatal period. Therefore, the FAO/WHO expert working group (2006)
concluded that while infants appear to
be the group at particular risk, neonates and also those less than two
months of age are at greatest risk (FAO/
WHO, 2006)."
