An infectious disease already prevalent in New Zealand is on the rise again.
Campylobacteriosis was made a notifiable disease in 1980 and is proving to be a major health concern. The disease, caused by the bacteria Camplyobacter, is found in animals, the environment, foods and untreated water.
Infection rates in New Zealand are already higher than in other countries and have recently rocketed with up to 300 cases being reported a week.
Principal Advisor of Public Health for the New Zealand Food Safety Authority, Dr Donald Campbell, says it is not known what is behind the increase.
People who become ill with Campylobacteriosis suffer diarrhoea, cramps, stomach pain and fever within two to five days of being exposed to the organism. The illness usually lasts a week but can cause a serious life-threatening infection in people with weak immune systems.
