TL;DR: Contrary to current tenets supporting a single homogeneous epidemic, it is demonstrated that the bacterium and its resistance genes were largely maintained within animal and human populations separately and that there was limited transmission, in either direction.
Prospective use of whole genome sequencing (WGS) detected a multi-country outbreak of Salmonella Enteritidis.
Thomas Inns,Philip Ashton,Silvia Herrera-León,J. Lighthill,Sarah Foulkes,Thibaut Jombart,Y. Rehman,A Fox,Timothy J. Dallman,E. de Pinna,L. Browning,J. E. Coia,Obaghe Edeghere,Roberto Vivancos +13 more
TL;DR: This outbreak in the UK was linked with contemporaneous cases in Spain by WGS and it is concluded that UK and Spanish cases were exposed to a common source of Salmonella-contaminated chicken eggs.
Microbiological study of fresh herbs from retail premises uncovers an international outbreak of salmonellosis
Nicola Elviss,Christine L. Little,L. Hucklesby,S. K. Sagoo,S. Surman-Lee,E. de Pinna,E. J. Threlfall +6 more
TL;DR: This study highlights the necessity of applying good agricultural and hygiene practices pre-, during and post-harvest, at processing, retail and use to prevent cross-contamination and/or bacterial growth occurring in ready-to-eat salad vegetable products, particularly fresh herbs.

The microbiological safety of ready-to-eat specialty meats from markets and specialty food shops: A UK wide study with a focus on Salmonella and Listeria monocytogenes
TL;DR: This study highlights the importance of ensuring that products do not become contaminated before final packaging, that storage conditions are controlled, and that durability dates are an accurate indication of the shelf life of the product so as to minimise the potential for L. monocytogenes to be present at levels hazardous to health at the point of sale.

An outbreak of Salmonella Typhimurium DT191a associated with reptile feeder mice.
TL;DR: Strong statistical evidence for an association between illness and keeping reptiles was demonstrated by a matched case-case study, and a leaflet detailing how to prevent contracting Salmonella from pet reptiles has been published.
