MrBallen讲述了一个关于志贺氏菌疫情爆发的真实故事，从一个8岁男孩Toby的严重食物中毒开始，随后蔓延到美国各地。故事详细描述了医生Miller、流行病学家Weakland、CDC官员Nami和FDA官员Brown等人在调查疫情源头过程中的努力和发现。 医生Miller首先接诊了Toby和Patin两个患有严重食物中毒的儿童，通过化验结果确诊为志贺氏菌感染。她意识到这可能是一次大规模疫情，并及时向卫生部门报告。 流行病学家Weakland领导团队调查疫情源头，发现Toby和Patin都曾在Robert's餐厅用餐。进一步调查发现Robert's餐厅多名员工也感染了志贺氏菌，但感染并非由员工传播给顾客。 CDC官员Nami参与调查，通过比对志贺氏菌的DNA，发现多地爆发了相同的疫情，都与特定餐厅有关。 FDA官员Brown追踪到污染源是墨西哥一家农场被污染的欧芹，污染源头是该农场使用的市政供水系统，由于经费削减，水处理系统中的氯消毒器长期故障，导致水源被污染。
