Seafood Safety
NOTES
1.
Outbreak (food-borne): Two or more persons experience a similar illness after ingesting a common food and epidemiological analysis implicates the food as the source. A few exceptions exist; for example, one case of botulism, seafood toxin poisoning, or chemical poisoning constitutes an outbreak (CDC, 1981a, p. 2).
2.
A case is a person who is clinically ill with a syndrome compatible with food-borne illness, and whose illness in epidemiologically associated with the consumption of food (CDC, 1981a, pp. 42-46).
