It's not hard at all if you're cooking chicken. All it can take is reusing the cutting board without washing.

If you're careful about it, it's hard. But plenty of people aren't careful. They think the risk is "overblown", they assume salmonella in chicken is as rare as salmonella in eggs.

This makes it pretty easy. And then they think they caught a stomach flu or something.

At that point why not just lick raw chicken? I mean if you stick your finger in an electric socket you'll get hurt too.

Just suggesting a basic level of hygiene.

I mean, I'm not disagreeing.

Just saying that it's not hard to do. That's all.

Because there is a chance you don’t get sick because the particular chicken was not carrying the disease and even then, the cause and effect are split by some time. Whereas getting shocked by sticking something metal in a socket is almost a given and has a very short feedback loop.

It actually is “stomach flu”, because that's the common name for gastroenteritis, even though it's not related to influenza.
