Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimuriumwas isolated from a pig, a calf, and a child on a farm in The Netherlands. The isolates were indistinguishable by phenotyping and genotyping methods, which suggests non-foodborne animal-to-animal and animal-to-human transmission. People in close contact with farm animals should be aware of this risk. Emerging Infectious Diseases 2004;10:2225-7.
