Food
Safety
This program will examine the changing nature of
foodborne outbreaks and the changing nature of outbreak
epidemiology. This includes a look at the shifting scope
of food distribution, the scope of outbreak occurrence,
and changes in the scale of contamination. While
foodborne diseases have always existed in the food
supply, modern-day approaches to food production and
distribution influence the scale of foodborne outbreaks.
As outbreaks become more complex, the nature in which
outbreaks are mitigated has also changed. Outbreak
epidemiology calls for collaborate efforts among public
health, government, and clinical entities in order to
identify the source of foodborne outbreaks and prevent
the spread or reoccurrence of such outbreaks.
Information will be posted
here as it becomes available.
