First documented outbreak of Bongkrekic acid food poisoning in Taiwan, March–April 2024

The substantial AR and CFR, and poor outcomes for hospitalized cases, indicate that implementing rigorous food safety measures to prevent future outbreaks is crucial. Improved outbreak preparedness, including increasing public awareness and strengthening regulations relating to the production and storage of food products prone to BA contamination, are needed to prevent and mitigate the impacts of future BA poisoning events. This is essential for public health in Taiwan and elsewhere.

Abstract

The substantial AR and CFR, and poor outcomes for hospitalized cases, indicate that implementing rigorous food safety measures to prevent future outbreaks is crucial. Improved outbreak preparedness, including increasing public awareness and strengthening regulations relating to the production and storage of food products prone to BA contamination, are needed to prevent and mitigate the impacts of future BA poisoning events. This is essential for public health in Taiwan and elsewhere.
