Scientists Find Adequate Surveillance Programs for European Foodborne Parasites is Lacking
The journal Parasite Epidemiology and Control recently published a study that analyzed information from 35 European countries, broken down by five different regions.
The study found that surveillance programs for most foodborne parasites are lacking. Although human and animal data are available for the five parasites studied, the surveillance and reporting requirements are highly varied, between regions and countries, and also among national experts.
