Foodborne Illness Outbreak: “The occurrence of two or more unrelated cases of similar illness resulting from the ingestion of a common food.”
US Department of Health and Human Services-Food and Drug Administration

It is estimated that foodborne diseases
cause approximately 76 million illnesses,
325,000 hospitalizations,and 5,000 deaths in the
United Stateseach year.

FOODBORNE STATISTICS
4
Food News Flash An outbreak of the bacterial disease Shigellosis has been confirmed and epidemiologically linked to at least 12 cases of illness from food consumed from a salad bar at a restaurant located in the northwest part of Lake County.
Medical tests from the restaurant indicated the illness in two employees who prepared food and washed equipment at the establishment. Included in the confirmed cases, is at least one person who is employed at a second Lake County Restaurant. Tests are pending on additional employees at the second restaurant and no illness has been confirmed to food consumed at this second restaurant.
Proper HAND WASHING, including the use of nail brushes and double HAND WASHING after bowel movement, would have prevented this outbreak, which in a short period of time has involved individuals in multi-county area.
• Symptoms of Shigellosis:– Diarrhea (often bloody)– Fever– Stomach cramps (1-3 days
after exposure)– Severe symptoms warrant
hospitalization– Route of infection passes from
person to person via fecal oral route
– Food may become contaminated form infected persons who do not wash their hands properly

FOOD NEWS Flash The Lake County Health Department alerted
physicians and the public about an outbreak of Salmonellosis, a severe diarrheal illness. On July 2, 2003, health officials reported six confirmed cases and a number of probable cases of the disease.
Salmonella bacteria may be transmitted by an infected person who fails to wash his/her hands after using the restroom. Salmonella infections may also be acquired from eating contaminated food.
One may be contagious for several days to several weeks. The illness usually resolves on its own, but in some cases antibiotics may be appropriate. Over-the-counter medications for diarrhea are likely to make the illness worse and should be avoided.
• Symptoms of Salmonella: – Diarrhea (often bloody)– Fever – Stomach cramps– Inflammation of the colon and
the small intestine– Sudden onset of headache– Loss of appetite– Onset of symptoms 12 to 36
hours after being exposed to the bacterium
• Persons who have diarrhea should never prepare food or pour water for others until two consecutive lab tests establish that they are no longer carrying Salmonella.
6
THE BIG THREE:LEADING CAUSES OF FOODBORNE ILLNESS
• Time/Temperature– Temperature Danger Zone:
410F - 1400F
• Cross Contamination– Storing raw foods above
ready-to-eat foods
• Hand washing– For 20 seconds (sing Happy
Birthday twice) with soap, warm water, and paper towels
7
Preventing Time-Temperature Abuse During Storage
When Storing Food:– Store deliveries as soon as
they are inspected– Store meat, poultry and
dairy products in the coldest part of the unit away from the door making sure not to cross-contaminate.
– Don’t overload refrigerators or line shelving with foil or paper.
– Check temperatures of stored foods; cold foods shall maintain 41oF or below
– Never place hot foods in the refrigerator (ensure proper cooling technique before placing hot foods in refrigerator)
– Keep dry storage area cool and dry

Cross-contamination
Cross-contamination is the transfer of harmful microorganisms or substances to food, and covers a multitude of potential food handling errors in all stages of food flow. Cross-contamination can occur at any time.
The 3 routes:
1) food to food
2) hands to food
3) equipment to food
**Ready-to-eat foods must receive the most care to prevent contamination.

Calibrating a Thermometer
• Two basic ways to calibrate a metal stem thermometer:
– Ice water– Boiling water
22
Calibrating a Thermometer
Ice Water• Fill a large glass with finely
crushed ice and cool water • Immerse the food thermometer
stem a minimum of 2 inches into the mixture, touching neither the sides nor the bottom of the glass.
• Wait a minimum of 30 seconds before adjusting. Without removing the stem from the ice, hold the adjusting nut under the head of the thermometer and turn the head so the pointer reads 32 °F.
23
Calibrating a ThermometerBoiling Water• Bring a pot of tap water to a full
rolling boil. • Immerse the stem of a food
thermometer in boiling water a minimum of 2 inches and wait at least 30 seconds.
• Without removing the stem from the pan, hold the adjusting nut under the head of the food thermometer and turn the head so the thermometer reads 212 °F.

HANDWASHING
25
HOW TO WASH
Equipment needed: Hand sink with hot and cold running water,
soap, and disposable paper towel
Steps:
1. Remove all jewelry from wrists and hands2. Wet hands and apply soap3. Build up a good lather and vigorously rub hands together for a MINIMUM OF 20
SECONDS (the time it takes to sing Happy Birthday twice)4. Pay particular attention to underneath fingernails,cuticles, in-between fingers,and wrists5. Rinse hands free of soap and dry hands with a disposable paper towel6. Turn sink faucet off with paper towel
26
WHEN TO WASH HANDS
• AFTER TOUCHING THE BODY (NOSE, MOUTH, HAIR, ETC.)
• AFTER USING THE RESTROOM• AFTER EATING, DRINKING, OR SMOKING• AFTER HANDLING SOILED EQUIPMENT• AFTER TOUCHING RAW MEAT• BEFORE AND AFTER PUTTING ON GLOVES• AFTER TAKING OUT THE GARBAGE• AND THE LIST GOES ON . . . . AND ON. . . . .
27
WHY WASH YOUR HANDS?
• Hands are particularly important in transmitting foodborne pathogens
• Dirty hands and/or fingernails may
contaminate the food being prepared
• Employees may serve as a reservoir for pathogenic microorganisms
