Submitted by Carren on Sun, 03/10/2019 - 23:25

The Zoonotic report, is a tool we use in the delivery of our food safety courses. It provides information on outbreaks of food poisoning in the UK. If you attend a level 4 course in Food Safety, we include the information on these reports to make sure you get the most up to date information on infections such as Salmonella, Camplyobacter and any emerging pathogens that all food businesses need to be aware of and put control measures in place. 

This annual report on zoonoses in the United Kingdom (UK) includes cases of zoonotic infection in humans and animals reported during 2017. The data has been compiled from statutory notifiable or reportable disease reports, national scanning surveillance systems, national laboratory reporting, control programmes and research activities.
