Too many sci-fi movies make it seem like you’ve got minutes before catastrophic symptoms appear after being exposed, but what’s the most realistic timeframe for an infection to cause a severe response?

Great answer! I enjoy watching “ChubbyEmu” videos on YouTube (he’s an MD) and he covers a ton of food poisoning, ingestion of huge quantities of “normal” food that causes crazy health outcomes, infections, and other cool stuff. It’s crazy how violently the body reacts, but that’s obviously for good reason - it just needs to calm the hell down sometimes, since the body’s reaction is often what hurts us!
