We report an ongoing, protracted and geographically dispersed outbreak of haemolytic uraemic syndrome (HUS) and gastroenteritis in Germany, involving 30 cases since December 2016. The outbreak was caused by the sorbitol-fermenting immotile variant of Shiga toxin-producing (STEC) Escherichia coli O157. Molecular typing revealed close relatedness between isolates from 14 cases. One HUS patient di...
For the first time in 16 years, a food-borne outbreak of typhoid fever due to Salmonella enterica serotype Typhi was reported in Japan. Seven patients consumed food in an Indian buffet at a restaurant in the center of Tokyo, while one was a Nepali chef in the restaurant, an asymptomatic carrier and the implicated source of this outbreak. The multiple-locus variable-number tandem repeat analysis...
Foodborne disease outbreaks of recent years demonstrate that due to increasingly interconnected supply chains these type of crisis situations have the potential to affect thousands of people, leading to significant healthcare costs, loss of revenue for food companies, and--in the worst cases--death. When a disease outbreak is detected, identifying the contaminated food quickly is vital to minim...

BACKGROUND Listeriosis, a life-threatening foodborne illness caused by Listeria monocytogenes, affects approximately 2500 Americans annually. Between July and October 2002, an uncommon strain of L. monocytogenes caused an outbreak of listeriosis in 9 states. METHODS We conducted case finding, a case-control study, and traceback and microbiological investigations to determine the extent and so...
In February 1996 Salmonella enterica serotype Montevideo infection in a patient in the North Tyneside area was attributed to consumption of cooked chicken bought from a supermarket hot food outlet. Isolates from the patient, leftover food, and environmental samples were indistinguishable by pulsed field gel electrophoresis (PFGE). PFGE also demonstrated that an outbreak of infection with S. Mon...
Enteric infections Outbreaks of foodborne disease Sixteen outbreaks of gastrointestinal disease thought to be due to consumption of contaminated food were reported in July and August 2011. One outbreak was identified through surveillance of laboratory notifications, 14 outbreaks were identified through complaints to the NSW Food Authority and one outbreak through the local public health unit. N...
A listeriosis outbreak in the United States implicated contaminated ice cream produced by one company, which operated 3 facilities. We performed single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP)-based whole genome sequencing (WGS) analysis on Listeria monocytogenes from food, environmental and clinical sources, identifying two clusters and a single branch, belonging to PCR serogroup IIb and genetic lineage ...
conclusions immediate diagnosis based on careful history and physical examination are essential for management of botulism. people should be notified about proper food handling and preparation of traditional homemade foods. patients and methods during an outbreak, 10 members of a family referred to the hospital because of food poisoning. all patients had a history of consumption of doogh, a tra...
Letters clinical presentation of the patients, response to trivalent botulinum antitoxin, and isolation of toxigenic C. butyricum from one of the consumed food articles strongly suggest that the outbreak was caused by food contaminated with toxigenic C. butyricum. Neurotoxigenic C. butyricum was first reported in 1986 in two cases of infant botulism in Rome (6). Recently, neurotoxigenic C. buty...
