| Popis: | The goal of this risk assessment was to describe and as far as possible quantify the risk of salmonella to consumers from pork and pork products sold in Finland. At the same time, we wanted to determine what effects the EU-approved Finnish Salmonella Control Programme, which began in 1995, has had on this salmonella risk. The programme covers cattle, pigs and poultry. Based on this salmonella control program, Finland has also been granted so-called additional guarantees, which allow her to require that certain imported foods be examined in the country of origin for salmonella, with exceptions granted to countries which have a similar salmonella control program. The risk assessment is based on data gathered for the control programme as well as on other available data. Data from 1999 was chosen as the starting point for the modelling. The assessment covered the entire production process from slaughter to consumer, and was done with the help of four quantitative submodels. For the purposes of this study, pork products were divided into three groups: products comparable to fresh meat, products which are not heated to 70°C, and products whose preparation includes heating to 70°C, or the equivalent. The quantitative risk analysis is composed of four submodels: the Slaughter Prevalence Inference Model (SPIM), the Import Prevalence Inference Model (IPIM), the Secondary Production Simulation Model (SPMS), and the Consumption Inference Model (CIM).
