The picture in developed & developing countries may be quite different as far as zoonoses are concerned. In developed countries the consumer has very little contact with the live animal, limiting transmission from live animals to the general public. In addition food safety is extremely regulated. Despite this food borne disease is still a big problem in developed countries. In the EU in 2006, a total of 175,561 confirmed cases of campylobacteriosis were reported from 21 Member States and reported cases will only represent the tip of the iceberg (see [http://www.efsa.eu.int/EFSA/DocumentSet/Zoon_report_2006_summary_en.pdf?ssbinary=true - The EFSA Journal (2007) 130-Main conclusions on the Community Summary Report on Zoonoses 2006]).
