Book Description
The FDA's Bad Bug Book is designed for healthcare professionals diagnosing and treating foodborne illnesses.
The United States Food and Drug Administration, an agency that protects the health of the American people, is one of the most successful and proudest creations of the American democracy. The FDA's origins go back to the start of the 20th century, when revelations about filth in the Chicago stockyards shocked the nation into awareness that, in an industrial economy, protection against unsafe products is beyond any individual's means. The U.S. Congress responded to Upton Sinclair's best-selling The Jungle by passing the Food and Drugs Act of 1906 that prohibited interstate commerce in misbranded and adulterated food and drugs. Enforcement of the law was entrusted to the U.S. Department of Agriculture's Bureau of Chemistry, which later became the FDA.
