Food Poison InvestIgations
Foodborne disease outbreaks are investigated to prevent both ongoing transmission of disease and similar outbreaks in the future. Specific objectives include:
- Control of ongoing outbreaks;
- Detection and removal of implicated foods;
- Identification of specific risk factors related to the host, the agent and the environment;
- Identification of factors that contributed to the contamination, growth, survival and dissemination of the suspected agent;
- Identification of factors that contributed to the contamination, growth, survival and dissemination of the suspected agent;
- Prevention of future outbreaks and strengthening of food safety policies;
- Acquisition of epidemiological data for risk assessment of foodborne pathogens;
- Stimulation of research that will help in the prevention of similar outbreaks.
The scale of an outbreak may range from a local outbreak of a small number of linked cases with mild disease to a nationwide or international outbreak of severe disease involving the mobilization of public health resources from all levels. Irrespective of the scale, a full investigation of a foodborne disease outbreak will normally include:
- Epidemiological investigations;
- Environmental and food investigations;
- Laboratory investigations.
