Salmonella bacteria can pass from chickens to humans in food and cause food poisoning. Chickens on a farm are vaccinated against Salmonella. How does this reduce food poisoning in humans?

A

Antibodies made by the vaccinated chickens are passed to humans in the meat

B

The vaccine kills the Salmonella bacteria already present in the chicken meat
