A cost benefit study of milk-borne salmonellosis

D R Cohen et al. J Hyg (Lond). 1983 Aug.

Abstract

An estimate of the benefits which would result from a ban on the sale of non-pasteurized milk in Scotland has been assessed by costing a recent outbreak of milk-borne salmonellosis in the Grampian Region. The cost of such a ban would not exceed the benefits under any but the most severe assumptions about the values attached to intangible benefits.
