2021 Education Campaign: Pet Safety

Each year human illnesses are reported from people caring for and feeding pets. The Virginia Food Protection Task Force (VFPTF) is providing educational materials from the Center of Disease Control to help families remind families that pets sometimes carry germs that can make people sick.

The VFPTF is providing free copies of laminated posters and copies of the CDC coloring books to Virginia veterinarians, zoos, pet feed supply companies, Virginia Cooperative Extension and consumers to help spread the word on choosing the right pet and how to protect families from germs that cause illness.

Materials available cover topic areas such as backyard flocks and Salmonella, safety around reptiles, pet food safety and general tips for staying healthy around pets. Resources can be found: https://www.cdc.gov/healthypets/publications/index.html
These materials are available only while supplies last. Those interested in materials or further information should contact Christy Brennan,
Virginia Rapid Response Team Coordinator, at 804-786-1585 or [email protected].

Support for this offer comes from a cooperative agreement awarded to the Virginia Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services Food Safety Program by the Food and Drug Administration.

 

 

Norovirus outbreaks are common because the virus spreads quickly from infected people to others, and through contaminated foods and surfaces. Outbreaks happen throughout the year, but most often from November to April.

Hepatitis A is a contagious liver disease that results from infection with the hepatitis A virus (HAV). It can range in severity from a mild illness lasting a few weeks to a severe illness lasting several months. Hepatitis A is usually spread when a person eats food contaminated with a small amount of feces. A person can also get hepatitis A from touching objects, food, or drinks contaminated by the feces of an infected person.
