BRITISH MEAT FOOD POISONING On January 12 1998, The British Medical Association warned in a report to Members of Parliament in London that all raw meat should be considered infected and a possible source of food poisoning. "The current state of food safety in Britain is such that all raw meat should be assumed to be contaminated with pathogenic organisms," the report said. The BMA report went on to record that the number of cases of food poisoning was at its highest ever in 1997. One million people infected by salmonella or E. Coli 0157 bacteria. 200 people died as a result. "The only safe approach for the food industry and general public is to treat all raw meat as infected and adopt universal precautions in handling and cooking raw meat," the report concluded.

U. S. Food and Drug Administration Center for Food Safety and Applied Nutrition From the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report Centers for Disease Control and Prevention MMWR 43(10):1994 Mar 18 Bacillus cereus Food Poisoning Associated with Fried Rice at Two Child Day Care CentersVirginia, 1993 Bacillus cereus , an infectious cause of foodborne illness, accounted for 2% of outbreaks with confirmed etiology that were reported to CDC during 1973-1987 (1). On July 21, 1993, the Lord Fairfax (Virginia) Health District received reports of acute gastrointestinal illness that occurred among children and staff at two jointly owned child day care centers following a catered lunch. This report summarizes the investigation of this outbreak. The catered lunch was served on July 21 to 82 children aged less than or equal to 6 years and to nine staff; dietary histories were obtained for 80 persons. Staff and all children aged greater than or equal to 4 years were interviewed directly; staff and parents were questioned for children aged less than 4 years. Of the 80 persons, 67 ate the catered lunch. A case was defined as vomiting by a person who was present at either day care center on July 21. Fourteen (21%) persons who ate the lunch became ill, compared with none of 13 who did not. Symptoms included nausea (71%), abdominal cramps or pain (36%), and diarrhea (14%). Twelve of the 14 cases occurred among children aged 2.5-5 years, and two occurred among staff. The median incubation period was 2 hours (range: 1.5-3.5 hours). Symptoms resolved a median of 4 hours after onset (range: 1.5-22 hours).

Ohio State University Extension Senior Series Reducing the Risk of Food Poisoning SS-124-97 Food poisoning affects millions of Americans each year. Common symptoms of food poisoning are similar to those associated with the flu; headache, nausea, and diarrhea. Symptoms usually occur within a few hours to a day after eating. Four groups of people are particularly vulnerable to food borne illness: pregnant women, young children, the seriously ill, and the senior adult. The senior adult is particularly at risk because of several age-related physical changes: the immune system weakens with age; the stomach becomes less acidic, limiting its ability to fight food borne illness; and sensory organs change, reducing the ability to detect spoiled food by smell or sight. The consequences of food borne illness can be serious for people in high risk groups. Food borne illness may lead to other complications, including kidney failure and meningitis. If you are in any of the high risk groups or preparing food for someone who is, it is important to exercise caution in how you handle food. The ways in which we prepare, cook, serve, and store food can increase or decrease the risk of food borne illness. Food borne illnesses are caused by eating food that contain certain types of bacteria or viruses. After the food is eaten, these microorganisms continue to multiply in the digestive tract, causing an infection, or the bacteria growing on the food may have produced a toxin (poison), which, when consumed causes illness.

Typical symptoms include nausea, vomiting, abdominal cramping, and diarrhea that come on suddenly (within 48 hours) of consuming a contaminated food or drink. Depending on the contaminant, fever and chills, bloody stools, dehydration, and nervous system damage may follow. These symptoms may affect one person or a group of people who ate the same thing (this would be called an outbreak). The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) estimates that in the United States alone, food poisoning causes about 76 million illnesses, 325,000 hospitalizations, and up to 5,000 deaths each year. One of the most common bacterial forms of infection, the salmonellae organisms, account for $1 billion in medical costs and lost work time.

Prevention Definition Staph aureus food poisoning is an illness that results from eating food contaminated by a toxin produced by the Staphlococcus aureus bacteria. Causes, incidence, and risk factors Staphlococcus aureus food poisoning is often caused when a food handler contaminates food products such as desserts, salads, or baked goods (especially custards, mayonnaise, and cream-filled or topped desserts) that are served or stored at room or refrigerator temperature. The bacteria multiplies rapidly in the food, and a large colony of bacteria may be present without evidence of food spoilage. Risk factors include ingestion of food prepared by a person with a skin infection, ingestion of food kept at room temperature, ingestion of improperly prepared food, and symptoms occurring in persons eating the same food. Symptoms usually appear within 4 to 6 hours. The disease is common in the U.S.

A new report shows cases of E. coli O157:H7 infections, one of the most severe food-borne illnesses, dropped by 36% from 2002 to 2003. Most illnesses caused by E. coli infections are the result of eating undercooked, contaminated ground beef. "This decline is promising, but it is a one-year change and more time is needed to know whether this is going to be sustained," says Robert Tauxe, MD, chief of the CDC's food-borne and diarrheal diseases branch. "That said, overall trends suggest that efforts by industry, individuals, and certainly efforts in the regulatory arena seem to have us headed in the right direction." Overall, food poisoning cases have declined by 42% since 1996, and the incidences of three other common culprits also dropped significantly during that period:
