Health risk and disease burden of pork-derived nontyphoidal Salmonella in Chinese households: A quantitative microbiological risk assessment

Key Points

• Pork-derived nontyphoidal salmonella represents a major health risk in households, particularly in China.
• The disease burden associated with salmonella infection can lead to serious health issues, including hospitalization.
• Quantitative microbiological risk assessment identifies potential interventions to reduce health risks from salmonella.
• Addressing this public health concern could potentially decrease infection rates and improve overall food safety.
