CDC/WHO Visit to Dubai, UAE February 17-25, 2014 Course Objectives CDC/WHO Visit to Dubai, UAE February 17-25, 2014

Goal: Improvement in Foodborne Illness Surveillance, Detection, and Outbreak Investigation Long journey—takes months, years to improve Has taken many years in the U.S. to build current systems—still evolving CDC has made several trips to Dubai/UAE Considerable progress has been made, but Considerable progress needs to occur

Components of a Highly Functioning System (Good routine regulatory inspections) Comprehensive laboratory surveillance of human illness cases (>disease burden) “What gets measured gets done” Detect outbreaks quickly Investigate and control outbreaks Use information to prevent future outbreaks

Key Points for a Successful Journey Requires a team effort at local, state, and federal levels among epidemiologists, laboratorians, and environmental health specialists (food control department) Cannot food test your way to food safety--need to track human illness Not all nausea/vomiting/diarrhea is foodborne illness (chemical/waterborne/animal/person-to-person), exposure history is critical among cases and controls Last meal bias—common assumption that is almost always wrong!

In Summary: Team effort Everyone has a role to play Best of luck on your journey!
