“…Gaining support from high-level government officials for the participation in international communication activities, with clear roles and responsibilities agreed (including agreement on the type of information to be shared), has been identified as a key element required to improve international cooperation and collaboration using established systems such as INFOSAN [ 35 ]. Food safety investigations rely on the willingness of multiple agencies involved within various countries to share information and to collaborate [ 52 ] and without senior or management level support, technical staff may not feel empowered to share information. The investigation into a large and prolonged outbreak of hepatitis A virus (HAV) infections in several European countries in 2013 and 2014 demonstrated the importance of having strong management support and coordination capability at the national level, noting that administrative hurdles and communication problems can lead to delays in notification of events [ 53 ].…”

“…During international foodborne disease outbreaks, there is an inherent reliance on the comparability of data in order to determine if disparate cases of illness are related. In this way, standardisation is essential in terms of molecular methods for comparing foodborne bacterial strains, for example [ 52 ]. During the investigation into cases of Salmonella Goldcoast in Italy and Hungary in 2009 and 2010, implementing the use of standardised protocols for Salmonella strain typing between human and veterinary laboratories was critical in order to generate hypotheses about a possible zoonotic connection of the outbreak cases in both countries to the pork production chain [ 61 ].…”
