Abstract

The Zoonoses Monitoring is a joint programme run by the Federal Government and the Laender (Germany’s states) to raise and assess representative data on the occurrence of zoonotic agents and related antimicrobials resistance in food, feed, and live animals. Programme results are published annually by the Federal Office of Consumer Protection and Food Safety (BVL) in its Food Safety Reports. Zoonoses Monitoring is legally founded on the “General Administrative Provisions concerning zoonoses in the food chain” (AVV Zoonosen Lebensmittelkette), which in turn are based on Directive 2003/99/EC on the monitoring of zoonoses and zoonotic agents.
