食品伙伴網(wǎng)訊    據(jù)歐盟食品安全局（EFSA）消息，11月4日歐盟食品安全局更新了埃博拉病毒經(jīng)食物鏈傳播風(fēng)險，對風(fēng)險進行了評估，并討論了可行的應(yīng)對措施。

    歐盟食品安全局稱，可能至少有1起埃博拉感染病例與食用叢林肉有關(guān)。這種情況的出現(xiàn)是由于五部造成。然而由于相關(guān)數(shù)據(jù)缺失，尚不能推斷出風(fēng)險水平。目前對肉采取鹽腌、煙熏或者干制是否能殺滅病毒也未知。然而100℃蒸煮可以滅菌。

    部分原文報道如下：

    Several animal species were found to harbour Za?re Ebola virus （ZEBOV）， mainly non-human primates and fruit bats. The risk for persons in Europe linked to the transmission of ZEBOV via handling and preparation （by consumers or staff handling the food in kitchens immediately prior to consumption）， and consumption of bushmeat illegally imported from Africa was assessed.

    The public health consequences of such an event would be very serious given the high lethality and potential for secondary transmission. Hardly any information on ZEBOV infectivity is available on the effect of salting, smoking or drying of meat. Therefore, a conclusion cannot be reached regarding the effectiveness of these methods for virus inactivation. Thorough cooking （100 °C） will destroy the virus.
