Slobodenpecat

According to reports, in November 2022, when the first assessment was published, ready-to-eat chicken products and fresh chicken meat were identified as likely carriers of infection based on data from Finland and the UK. Subsequent investigations by food safety authorities in Estonia, Finland and the Netherlands, and the sharing of that information with EFSA, in 2024 revealed that frozen steamed chicken breasts produced in Ukraine carried the infection. It is emphasized that the contaminated batches of chicken were imported by companies that are not from the European Union, and distributed in these countries – it is stated in the report transmitted by Politika.

Meanwhile, EFSA officials explained that the contaminated frozen chicken meat products expired in November and December last year. The most recent cases of salmonella infection were detected in Finland in October 2023 and in Great Britain in February 2024.

UK – Food poisoning wedding probe leads to… sprouts – Salmonella Bareilly

Posted on April 11, 2024 by | Leave a comment

The Jewish Chronicle

A freak nationwide outbreak of Salmonella in bean sprouts is being investigated as the possible cause of the death of an 82-year-old Jewish woman who died after a wedding in Manchester.

Rene Kwartz, from Crumpsall, was one of 10 guests at the wedding, held in Prestwich in August, who contracted a rare form of salmonella called S Bareilly. She was the bride’s great-aunt and, according to the coroner, died from pneumonia, contributed to by Salmonella enteritis.

The Health Protection Agency (HPA) has now identified 140 S Bareilly cases across the UK since the beginning of August – ten times the number in a typical month.
