USA – Chicken and Salmonella Infantis, the Neverending Outbreak?

Posted on November 10, 2021 by | Leave a comment

Food Poisoning Bulletin

When the CDC ended its investigation of a deadly Salmonella Infantis outbreak linked to raw chicken products in February 2019, it added an unusual note at the top of the posting. “This investigation is over. Illnesses could continue because this Salmonella strain appears to be widespread in the chicken industry,” it read in part.

Two and a half years later, the impact of that statement came into focus when an investigative report from ProPublica revealed that the outbreak, linked to a multidrug-resistant strain of Salmonella Infantis, has never ended.

“Many people are still becoming ill, and some of them gravely ill,” Robert Tauxe told ProPublica. Tauxe, who is the director of the Center for Disease Control and Prevention’s (CDC’s) Division of Foodborne, Waterborne, and Environmental Diseases, said the agency receives dozens of reports of illness linked to this strain each month, according to the report.

For every culture-confirmed Salmonella illness, the CDC uses a multiplier of 29 to account for undiagnosed infections. One internal CDC document that the ProPublica Team found estimated that this single strain of Salmonella Infantis is responsible for 11,000-17,000 illnesses per year.

And the strain is still frequently turning up in chicken.

New Zealand – Managing Salmonella Enteritidis in commercial chicken flocks

Posted on October 12, 2021 by | Leave a comment

MPI

Salmonella Enteritidis is a serious disease affecting people. Infection can occur from eating eggs and poultry meat. To help eliminate Salmonella Enteritidis, commercial chicken operators need to meet extra requirements from October 2021.

Commercial chicken operators must meet extra rules

From 6 October 2021, commercial chicken operators must comply with an emergency control scheme (ECS). The rules are to:

  • identify, monitor, and evaluate the risks around producing and selling chicken products
  • better manage the risks to public health from Salmonella Enteritidis (SE).

The Ministry for Primary Industries (MPI) consulted with the poultry industry about the ECS.

How to comply with the SE Emergency Control Scheme Order [PDF, 1001 KB]

Animal Products Order: Emergency Control Scheme – Managing SE in Commercial Chicken Flocks [PDF, 609 KB]

The rules apply to all those in the chicken supply chain

Specific chicken products must be produced and sold under the ECS. The rules apply to all operators within the chicken supply chain, including:

  • breeders, hatcheries, and rearers
  • egg laying and broiler farms
  • processing sites of chicken meat and eggs.
