Review calls for integrating food safety into pandemic preparedness through One Health approach

Summary

A Perspective review published in npj Science of Food argues that food safety systems are critically overlooked in pandemic preparedness planning. Using a One Health approach, the authors warn that future pandemics—even those not caused by foodborne pathogens—could severely disrupt food supply chains, weaken regulatory oversight, and erode consumer trust. The review calls for integrating food safety into pandemic preparedness across surveillance, laboratory capacity, workforce readiness, and regulation to build more resilient systems.
