Human trichinellosis is caused by the consumption of raw or inadequately treated meat from domestic or game animals containing the larvae of parasites of the Trichinella species. Taeniosis occurs when people consume beef with cysticerci that have not been sufficiently heated or frozen to kill the parasite. This report provides the spreadsheet models that resulted in effective generation of the quantitative information needed by public health officials when evaluating different postmortem meat hygiene programmes for Trichinella spp. and Taenia saginata in meat. The models enable the development of science-based risk scenarios to assess the effect of various changes to digestion testing and meat inspection for Trichinella spp. and Taenia saginata, respectively, on the residual risk of human trichinellosis and taeniosis.
