Health Protection Scotland and Food Standards Agency (Scotland): Joint Annual Report on Infectious Intestinal Disease in Scotland, 2013

This is the second joint annual report published by Health Protection Scotland and the Food Standards Agency in Scotland.

Although most of these data are available in other publications, including the UK Zoonoses Report and Health Protection Scotland’s Weekly Report outputs, both organisations felt it would be worthwhile to produce a comprehensive report on infectious intestinal disease in Scotland and detail the initiatives that are planned or underway to reduce foodborne disease.

Whilst the primary focus is 2013, we have included data for previous years to provide context where appropriate.
