To present the first update on the epidemiology of US foodborne correctional institution outbreaks in 20 years. <\/jats:p><jats:p> Methods. We analyzed data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention\u2019s Foodborne Disease Outbreak Surveillance System to describe correctional institution outbreaks from 1998 to 2014 and compare them with other foodborne outbreaks. <\/jats:p><jats:p> Results. Two hundred foodborne outbreaks in correctional institutions were reported, resulting in 20\u2009625 illnesses, 204 hospitalizations, and 5 deaths. Median number of outbreak-associated illnesses per 100\u2009000 population per year was 45 (range\u2009=\u200911\u2013141) compared with 7 (range\u2009=\u20094\u201310) for other outbreaks. These outbreaks accounted for 6% (20\u2009625 of 358\u2009330) of outbreak-associated foodborne illnesses. Thirty-seven states reported at least 1 outbreak in a correctional institution. Clostridium perfringens (28%; 36 of 128) was the most frequently reported single etiology. The most frequently reported contributing factor was food remaining at room temperature (37%; 28 of 76). <\/jats:p><jats:p> Conclusions. Incarcerated persons suffer a disproportionate number of outbreak-associated foodborne illnesses. Better food safety oversight and regulation in correctional food services could decrease outbreaks. <\/jats:p><jats:p> Public Health Implications. Public health officials, correctional officials, and food suppliers can work together for food safety. Clearer jurisdiction over regulation of correctional food services is needed. <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.2105\/ajph.2017.303816","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2017,5,18]],"date-time":"2017-05-18T19:53:33Z","timestamp":1495137213000},"page":"1150-1156","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":28,"title":["Foodborne Disease Outbreaks in Correctional Institutions\u2014United States, 1998\u20132014"],"prefix":"10.2105","volume":"107","author":[{"given":"Mariel A.","family":"Marlow","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"All of the authors are with the Enteric Diseases Epidemiology Branch, National Center for Emerging and Zoonotic Infectious Diseases, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), Atlanta, GA.
