The statement is true.

E. coli (Escherichia coli) is a type of bacteria that is naturally present in the colon (large intestine) of humans and many animals. While most strains of E. coli are harmless and play a role in maintaining a healthy gut microbiome, some strains can cause food poisoning or other infections if they enter other parts of the body.
