WGS drives Salmonella drop; 2025 dietary guidelines still delayed
It’s Tuesday, Jan. 6, 2026, and today’s FSN Daily shifts from big-picture outlooks to the systems and science shaping food safety right now. We’re tracking how new tools like whole genome sequencing are reducing illness, where policy timelines are slipping, and what regulators are still struggling to get right across borders.
Here’s what to know today.
1. WGS adoption linked to Salmonella reduction
Whole genome sequencing (WGS) has been associated with a significant reduction in Salmonella cases in Australia.
Researchers estimated the effects of WGS on non-typhoidal Salmonella surveillance using national disease datasets. Data came from the National Notifiable Diseases Surveillance System from 2009 to January 2024.
2. Dietary guidelines due out in 2025 still in the works
The guidelines for Americans’ food that were promised in summer of 2025 are still in the works.
The 2025-2030 version of the Dietary Guidelines for Americans have been delayed three times, with the promised release in summer, fall and by the end of December 2025. Secretary of Health and Human Services Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has said that improving the diets of Americans is a top priority for him.
3. Polish audit reveals continued Salmonella testing problems
A follow up audit in Poland has found ongoing differences between Salmonella results from official controls and sampling by food businesses.
The November 2024 DG Sante audit was undertaken to check on progress on nine recommendations made during a remote audit in 2021 on bovine meat traceability and poultry meat products.
