The cholera-pandemic raging in South and Middle America and endemic cholera in other countries call for measures of health protection of the local population, but particularly with respect to the young, old, pregnant and immunocompromised citizens of countries importing food from the areas where the disease has struck. Instead of harshly barring importation, a more humanitarian policy is recommended, relying on assistance of areas presenting risks, with the introduction of and adherence to rigorous measures of longitudinally integrated microbiological safety assurance. This model is equally applicable to other enteric diseases transmitted by food. Examples are given of how canned foods of neutral pH, fishery products, vegetables and certain fruits should be processed for safety. Importation monitoring strategies, linked to this proactive approach to consumer protection, are briefly summarized.
肆虐南美洲和中美洲的霍乱大流行以及其他国家的地方性霍乱,要求采取措施保护当地居民的健康,尤其是对从霍乱爆发地区进口食品的国家中年轻、年老、孕妇和免疫功能低下的公民。与其严厉禁止进口,不如建议采取更具人道主义的政策,依靠存在风险地区的援助,并引入和坚持严格的纵向综合微生物安全保障措施。该模式同样适用于其他通过食物传播的肠道疾病。文中给出了中性pH值的罐头食品、渔业产品、蔬菜和某些水果应如何进行安全加工的示例。简要总结了与这种积极主动的消费者保护方法相关的进口监测策略。
