Food Chai ain Risk isk Asse ssessm sment Determine the risk of any single pork meal eaten in Western Kenya being infectious with T.solium
Model l Struct uctur ure
Risk sk pig ig is is Infect cted wit ith T.so solium lium Data from PAZ slaughter slab survey 48% Pigs positive on HP10 Ag-ELISA Indicates pigs with viable cysts Literature suggests no significant difference in prevalence between formal and informal slaughtered pigs
If pig pig is is inf infected; d; what is is the pr prob obabilit bility of of any ny one one meal l cont ontainin ining cystic icerci? Based on experimental infection data (Sciutto et al., 1998 & Deckers et al., 2008) Level of infection of pig Dissection and numeration of cysts Beta distribution for proportion Proportion of meals infected in different infection levels no. cysts/ 2kg pork Average meal size of 0.25kg (assumption) Uniformly distributed as little prior knowledge
Is s the pork k well ll co cooke ked? PAZ homestead survey data Any response bar ‘Brown throughout’ or ‘Fully Roasted’ = potential for undercooked (17%) Beta distribution

Summar ary T.solium endemic in Western Kenya and areas of Uganda Very high number of infective pigs slaughtered Huge potential for infective meat to reach consumer Several interventions have potential to reduce this risk Exclusion of infective pigs using new diagnostic test is realistic and achievable
Which ich way ay now? Finish laboratory diagnostics Analysis of co-infection data and risk factors No-gold-standard analysis of pen-side test
