Clostridium perfringens has been confirmed as the cause of more than 100 students falling ill at a university in New Zealand.
Health New Zealand and the Ministry for Primary Industries (MPI) investigated the outbreak among pupils at the University of Canterbury’s University Hall in Christchurch. Students fell ill a few weeks ago during the end-of-year exam period.
Laboratory testing and survey data confirmed New Zealand Food Safety’s theory that the outbreak was likely caused by unsafe preparation of shredded chicken served to students as part of a meal.

New Zealand Food Safety (NZFS) is advising the public not to collect or consume shellfish gathered from an area of the Bay of Plenty due to the presence of paralytic shellfish toxins.
“Routine tests on tuatua from Waihi Beach have shown levels of paralytic shellfish toxins more than double the safe limit,” says NZFS deputy director-general Vincent Arbuckle.
The warning extends from the southern end of Pauanui Beach down to the entrance of Tauranga Harbour, by Mount Maunganui. The warning also includes Tauranga Harbour.
“Please do not gather and eat shellfish from this area because anyone doing so could get sick.
“Affected shellfish include bivalve shellfish such as mussels, oysters, tuatua, pipi, toheroa, cockles and scallops, as well as pūpū (cat’s eyes) and Cook’s turban. Kina are still safe to eat.
“It’s also important to know that cooking the shellfish does not remove the toxin.”
Symptoms of paralytic shellfish poisoning usually appear within 10 minutes to 3 hours of eating and may include:
Pāua, crab and crayfish may still be eaten if the gut has been completely removed prior to cooking, as toxins accumulate in the gut. If the gut is not removed, its contents could contaminate the meat during the cooking process. Finfish are not affected by this public health warning, but we advise gutting the fish and discarding the liver before cooking.
NZFS has had no notifications of associated illness.
If anyone becomes ill after eating shellfish from an area where a public health warning has been issued, phone Healthline for advice on 0800 61 11 16, or seek medical attention immediately. You are also advised to contact your nearest public health unit and keep any leftover shellfish in case it can be tested.
“NZFS is monitoring shellfish in the region and will notify the public of any changes to the situation, says Mr Arbuckle.
Commercially harvested shellfish – sold in shops and supermarkets or exported – is subject to strict water and flesh monitoring programmes by NZFS to ensure they are safe to eat.
