Prevention and Education: The ultimate goal for public health is not just stopping outbreaks once they occur, but preventing them from happening in the first place. The long-term result of outbreak investigations and additional research should be improved practices in industry, stronger regulations and enforcement by U.S. regulatory agencies, and better consumer understanding, all of which should reduce the number of foodborne illnesses that occur.

ECDC: Campylobacter tops zoonotic, foodborne outbreaks Campylobacter is the leading culprit by far in zoonotic and foodborne outbreaks in Europe, but it is declining slightly, the European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control (ECDC) said in a report today. The agency also noted that Salmonella infections are also down slightly, while listeriosis is up. Europe saw 214,268 confirmed cases of Campylobacter in 2012, the ECDC said in the annual report on such diseases, which was co-authored by the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA). Salmonella was a distant second, at 91,034, and verocytotoxigenic Escherichia coli was third, with 5,671 cases. The most common food vehicle for disease was eggs and egg products, the report said. Campylobacteriosis cases fell 4.3% compared with 2011, and salmonellosis was down 4.7%. Listeriosis, by contrast, was up 10.5%, to 1,642 cases in 2012. Listeria was also the fourth on the list of disease pathogens, but it caused the most deaths by a large margin, 198. The second-leading cause of death was Salmonella, at 61. Also, the listeriosis death toll was the highest it's been in Europe since 2006, according to the report. And Listeria was associated with the highest hospitalization rate of the nine pathogens studied, at 91.6%. Over the past 5 years, Campylobacter cases are up 12%, Salmonella cases are down 32%, and Listeria cases are up 13%. In a report on US foodborne outbreaks released by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) last July, norovirus (43%) topped the list of most common causes, followed by Salmonella (18%). The most deaths were linked to Salmonella, followed by Listeria and Shiga toxin–producing E coli, but the CDC report focused exclusively on foodborne disease.
