TRANQUIL MUSIC

2
00:00:17,240 --> 00:00:20,400
DILYS MORGAN: I think a workshop
like this is important for EU citizens,

3
00:00:20,560 --> 00:00:23,000
because it's one
of the few fora we have

4
00:00:23,160 --> 00:00:25,840
for actually meeting
our counterparts across Europe.

5
00:00:26,000 --> 00:00:30,160
Obviously, within the UK, we have a very
good system for human and animal health,

6
00:00:30,320 --> 00:00:32,640
but there isn't
the opportunity

7
00:00:32,800 --> 00:00:36,920
to meet people from human
and animal health from across the EU.

8
00:00:37,080 --> 00:00:40,440
There are very few opportunities
for doing this otherwise.

9
00:00:40,600 --> 00:00:43,440
KRIS DE SMET: It's of course
not always important to find the source,

10
00:00:43,600 --> 00:00:45,040
but it is important
to do that,

11
00:00:45,200 --> 00:00:48,160
because this makes the link
between the human cases and the food.

12
00:00:48,320 --> 00:00:51,480
And this helps us enormously
to set priorities,

13
00:00:51,640 --> 00:00:54,840
or if you see human salmonellosis,
to have some idea

14
00:00:55,000 --> 00:01:00,640
about which are the main sources of food
which may cause the disease in humans.

15
00:01:00,800 --> 00:01:02,680
CHARLES PRICE:
I don't need to remind this audience

16
00:01:02,840 --> 00:01:08,160
that zoonoses comprise
a very heterogeneous collection of threats.

17
00:01:08,320 --> 00:01:11,440
Clearly, the food poisoning ones are

18
00:01:11,600 --> 00:01:14,840
something which concern the EU
very much.

19
00:01:15,000 --> 00:01:20,440
Also, antimicrobial resistance,
which the Dutch Presidency of the EU

20
00:01:20,600 --> 00:01:23,360
in the first six months of this year
has really put on the agenda

21
00:01:23,520 --> 00:01:30,520
and highlighted for all of us how important
the animal health aspects are,

22
00:01:30,680 --> 00:01:32,640
that we must deal
with those

23
00:01:32,800 --> 00:01:36,240
at the same time
as dealing with the human health aspects.

24
00:01:36,400 --> 00:01:39,880
The framework
is largely defined by EU law,

25
00:01:40,040 --> 00:01:45,520
but actually, it's not the law that counts
in the end, it's the practice.

26
00:01:45,680 --> 00:01:49,680
And it's the practice based
on regular contact, on human relations,

27
00:01:49,840 --> 00:01:53,160
on cooperation
between institutions and member states.

28
00:01:53,320 --> 00:01:56,600
And that's why I think
that meetings like this are so important,

29
00:01:56,760 --> 00:02:02,040
to try and build that up and see how we
can make this really work in practice.

30
00:02:02,200 --> 00:02:04,560
MAN'S VOICE:
So EFSA is meant to be at 400 staff.

31
00:02:04,720 --> 00:02:07,360
Competences going
from plant health...

32
00:02:07,520 --> 00:02:09,400
FRANK BOELAERT:
It was a very good opportunity,

33
00:02:09,560 --> 00:02:15,640
and we don't have that many opportunities
to exchange ideas, to exchange information

34
00:02:15,800 --> 00:02:20,160
with our counterparts
or the European Commission, ECDC

35
00:02:20,320 --> 00:02:24,560
and also with the member states,
and also to, in a very broad way,

36
00:02:24,720 --> 00:02:29,280
to get challenged
on the work we perform.

37
00:02:29,440 --> 00:02:33,760
THE TRANQUIL MUSIC
CONTINUES

38
00:02:33,920 --> 00:02:37,400
We know that vector distributions
are changing with time,

39
00:02:37,560 --> 00:02:39,880
not very, very fast,
but they're changing.

40
00:02:40,040 --> 00:02:43,720
And what may have been true
for the risk in a particular area

41
00:02:43,880 --> 00:02:47,520
ten years before or fifteen years before
may be different now.

42
00:02:47,680 --> 00:02:52,600
THE TRANQUIL MUSIC
CONTINUES

43
00:03:08,480 --> 00:03:11,280
KITTY MAASSEN: There is
no blueprint for a zoonosis structure.

44
00:03:11,440 --> 00:03:14,400
So, every country
has to organise it themselves.

45
00:03:14,560 --> 00:03:19,640
And what we hope is that people
are inspired by each other in this workshop

46
00:03:19,800 --> 00:03:25,200
and take something home, so that they can
improve the collaboration in their country.

47
00:03:25,360 --> 00:03:26,720
Okay,
another one.

48
00:03:26,880 --> 00:03:31,880
THE TRANQUIL MUSIC CONTINUES
UNTIL THE END OF THE PROGRAMME
