Zoonoses in Ireland, Update for 2008 Published
Friday, 27 August 2010
Zoonosis data are compiled and submitted to the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) each year by a number of Government departments and agencies. These data feed into a broader report on the trends and sources of zoonoses in the EU compiled by EFSA. This serves as a useful comparator for the status of zoonotic disease control in Ireland.
The data submitted from Ireland are the result of the laboratory analysis of many thousands of samples derived from humans, food and feed. This report for Ireland is the sixth such report compiled by the Food Safety Authority of Ireland.
