These figures show the number of suspect cases referred to the Creutzfeldt-Jakob Syndrome) CJD surveillance unit in Edinburgh, and the number of deaths of definite and probable cases in the UK, from 1 January 1990 up to 8th February 2011.

The National Food Institute is WHO Collaborating Centre for antimicrobial resistance among foodborne pathogens. Through this work the institute is involved with global Salmonella surveillance. At this link, one can find protocols, databanks, national and regional projects, newsletters, studies on particular pathogens, and reports. It is also possible to find training courses at varying levels.

This report presents findings from CSPI's database of foodborne illness outbreaks. It includes discussion of outbreaks and the responsible food safety agencies and provides recommendations for improving the federal food safety system. An appendix entitled "Outbreak Database: Summary of Outbreaks and Cases 1999-2003" is included. The associated line listing of foodborne illness outbreaks is provided in tabular format as a separate PDF download

This report describes the process for testing products for Salmonella to verify that industry Pathogen Reduction/HACCP systems are effective, and gives the results of the testing. Tables show the percent of samples found positive for Salmonella, the sample size, and the baseline prevalence for each product and retail establishment size for 1998-2003. Tables also show the percent of sample sets meeting performance standards for each of these years

Information about and tables of data from FSIS's microbiological testing programs on RTE meat and poultry products. Data are provided on the prevalence found for Salmonella and L. monocytogenes from 1990-2000

Tool for estimating the costs of illness for selected foodborne illnesses. Assumptions used in the estimate may be changed to reflect the desired scenario. ERS calculated costs are also given, and the assumptions used in calculating these costs may be examined

This document provides information on the L. monocytogenes risk assessment after the structure was developed and the initial data was collected. It includes bibliographies from each data collection subgroup, forming a nice list of L. monocytogenes resources

Information on each sample found positive for E. coli O157:H7 in the FSIS microbiological testing program. For each positive sample, the sample source, collection date, state where collected, product status (held or recalled), and statistics on number of positives and number of samples analyzed at that time is given. Data is available back to 1994
