About food safety news
Food safety news is about preventing illness. Ideally this is done at the inception, with proper food handling, such as proper application of good manufacturing practices (GMPS), proper Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Point (HACCP) when required, excellent personal hygiene, and effective monitoring from farm to table (FTT). In the absence of one or more of these, food borne illness outbreaks occur, most commonly from pathogens like salmonella, e. coli (which can lead to hemolytic uremic syndrome), campylobacter, Cyclospora (a parasite), and the ever-common Norovirus.
Unfortunately, food poisoning is like an automobile wreck. It is never free of costs. As a food poisoning lawyer, Dr. Coveny works with insurance companies (and most restaurants and food producers, like drivers, are required to carry insurance!). In these situations, as a food poisoning lawyer, Dr. Coveny works with the insurance carriers, defendants, and injured victims to cover medical costs, lost wages, and pain and suffering. Dr. Coveny does so aggressively to remind food producers and distributors to importance of maintaining safe food in the US. To speak to one of The Coveny Law Firm Food Poisoning Lawyers, call 1-800-224-8146.
Dr. Tony Coveny is a food poisoning lawyer with Ron Simon & Associates, editor and author.

Farm to Table Safety
The GMPs required to ensure farm to table safety in our food chain need to be a central component of the corporate culture of every food producer, manufacturer, or suppler. Part of this is to ensure that HACCP procedures are followed, that personal hygiene is enforced, and that there is not breakdown at any stage in the stream of commerce. Any gap, opening, or participant can be the door that a dangerous pathogen is waiting for. Diligence in good food production, as well as enforcement by the USDA, FDA, state and local health agencies, and through personal injury lawsuit are vital.
