摘要:Meat is a staple food for a large part of the population and excessive consumption is often done, with serious repercussions on health. But there are situations where even the occasional meat intake can affect the health of the population, if the products have not been verified for sanitary standards. Trichinosis is an example for this situation. Romania has a significant number of cases compared to other European countries. In Constanta County trichinosis incidence is increasing continuously in 2009-2013. Considering these data we can say that prevention and control measures are not sufficient for this pathology.
