Large Salmonella incident dominates Norway's foodborne illness figures

News


Abstract

Foodborne outbreaks declined in Norway in 2024, but the number of people sick in them increased, mainly because of one of the largest Salmonella outbreaks in decades. More outbreaks led to the number of Salmonella patients being the highest for more than a decade in 2024. Salmonellosis increased from 756 infections in 2023 to 1,197 in 2024. More than half of these reported that they were infected in Norway.
