Research – New Zealand reassesses Salmonella risk after outbreak

Posted on March 6, 2024 | Leave a comment

Food Safety News

The risk of Salmonella Enteritidis from eggs in New Zealand remains low despite an outbreak, according to the country’s food safety agency.

The original risk profile for Salmonella in and on chicken eggs in New Zealand was published in 2004, with updates in 2011 and 2016. Human illness attributed to New Zealand-grown poultry from Salmonella Enteritidis was not considered. The 2023 update looked at any potential change in the risk of salmonellosis from eggs produced in New Zealand following an outbreak.

New Zealand Food Safety said that while the risk associated with Salmonella Enteritidis is no longer negligible, it is still low. The risk from other Salmonella serotypes also remains low.

Research – Record High Food Poisoning Hospital Admissions in England Spark Safety Concerns

Posted on March 6, 2024 | Leave a comment

BNN Breaking

Amid rising concerns over food safety, England has witnessed an unprecedented increase in hospital admissions due to foodborne illnesses, with salmonella, E. coli, and campylobacter infections reaching their highest levels in decades. According to NHS data, between April 2022 and March 2023, there were 1,468 hospital visits for salmonella infections alone, marking a significant spike and highlighting a growing public health issue. Experts debate the causes, citing weakened regulatory oversight and changes post-Brexit, while others point to improved detection methods.
