Yes, it is very bad. I contracted it from a restaurant when I was 2 months pregnant. I was extremely ill & had to have IVs & ultrasounds to make sure baby was all right. You don't want to pass this on.
Campylobacter is VERY COMMON on UNCOOKED meat, and poses NO RISK when the meat is cooked properly. Children can pick it up off of meat packages at the grocery store - which is probably how my son got it when he was 18 months. And yes, it's nasty.
But if you COOK the meat, it's perfectly safe.
