Event Details

The sixth annual World Food Safety Day theme in June is "Food Safety: Prepare for the Unexpected".


According to the World Health Organization (WHO), one in ten people worldwide are sickened by unsafe food every year, and more than 200 diseases are caused by food contaminated by bacteria, viruses, parasites, or chemical substances.


This statistic underscores that food safety remains a global concern and that there is a critical need for rigorous food safety measures. We will discuss the role of pathogens and laboratory testing in identifying and mitigating food contamination risks.
