Collectively, these tools shed light on the burden of foodborne illness in the United States, and ways to decrease it. However, these tools also have two significant shortcomings. First, because they monitor a limited number of known food safety threats, and because foodborne illnesses are substan...

Rinse raw fruits and vegetables under running water before peeling, cutting, or eating, to avoid transferring surface pathogens to the clean interior of fruits and vegetables. This also applies to organic produce, which are grown with fewer pesticides, but do not necessarily have fewer pathogens. ...
According to the World Health Organization, foodborne disease is a significant public health issue. We will choose the best model to predict foodborne disease by comparison, to provide evidence for government policies to prevent foodborne illness. The fo

Sporadically occurring illnesses are typically much more frequent in a population; these cases are either the result of a singular exposure of an individual to a dose in food that is sufficient to result in illness; or they represent very small outbreaks that are undetected (i.e., the result...

Moreover, sprouted seeds contaminated with enteric pathogens have been associated with many large illness outbreaks, most of which have been linked to Salmonella and STEC [3, 8, 9]. One of the biggest outbreak that occurred in 2011 in Germany during which more than 50 people died was due ...
Viruses in this group, such as enteroviruses, replicate in the human intestines but cause illness after migrating to other organs, like the central nervous system. Additionally, some viruses not typically considered foodborne, such as severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS)-coronaviruses and highly ...
A high incidence of foodborne diseases occurs in the home setting because consumers adopt inappropriate preparation, consumption, and storage procedures. The present study applies an ethnographic approach to identify inadequate practices that could incre
