Campylobacter Named Top Food Risk in Ireland

Campylobacter Named Top Food Risk in Ireland

A recent risk ranking assessment identifies Campylobacter as the primary concern for Irish food safety.

Campylobacter has been identified as the leading risk in a new ranking assessment conducted in Ireland. The findings highlight the pathogen's prevalence and the associated challenges in managing its spread within the food chain.

While Campylobacter holds the top spot for overall risk, Food Safety News reports that Listeria was found to have the highest burden on a per-case basis. This distinction underscores the differing impacts of these pathogens on public health.
