Incidence of infection from Campylobacter in the United States increased 14% in 2012 when compared with 2006-08, according to an annual report from the Foodborne Disease Active Surveillance Network (FoodNet) released April 18 by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
After substantial declines in the early years of FoodNet surveillance, the incidence of Campylobacter infection has increased to its highest level since 2000, the C.D.C. said in its Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report.
