What does Florida violation V03 (Employee health reporting) mean?

OUTBREAK ENABLER: Food workers who fail to report illness symptoms are the #1 cause of multi-victim outbreaks. Norovirus is shed in billions of viral particles per gram of stool — as few as 18 particles cause infection. One symptomatic worker can infect hundreds of customers before detection. CDC links 70% of Norovirus outbreaks to infected food handlers. Employees must immediately report: vomiting, diarrhea, jaundice, sore throat with fever, infected wounds or boils. Must also report diagnosed illness with Salmonella Typhi, Shigella, E. coli O157:H7, Hepatitis A virus, or Norovirus. Person in charge must exclude or restrict employees per FDA Food Code guidelines.

What does Florida violation V13 (Parasite destruction) mean?

PARASITE SURVIVAL: Without proper freezing or cooking, parasites in fish (Anisakis, tapeworm), pork (Trichinella), and wild game survive to infect consumers. Anisakis larvae in raw sushi cause severe abdominal pain and allergic reactions. Tapeworm cysts in undercooked pork/beef grow into 15-30 foot worms in intestines. Proper freezing (-4°F for 7 days) kills parasites. Fish intended for raw consumption (sushi, sashimi, ceviche, tartare) must be frozen to -4°F for 7 days, or -31°F for 15 hours before service. Exception: tuna species and aquacultured fish fed processed feed. Pork and wild game must reach minimum internal cooking temperature. Document all freezing records.

What does Florida violation V25 (Allergen awareness) mean?

ALLERGIC REACTIONS: Food allergies affect 32 million Americans. Allergic reactions cause 30,000 emergency room visits and 150-200 deaths annually in the US. Major allergens (milk, eggs, fish, shellfish, tree nuts, peanuts, wheat, soybeans, sesame) can cause anaphylaxis within minutes of exposure. Cross-contact with trace amounts can be fatal. Demonstrate allergen awareness: identify the major food allergens, prevent cross-contact during storage and preparation, accurately communicate ingredient information to customers, train all food handlers on allergen management. Use separate equipment for allergen-free preparation. Clean and sanitize surfaces between allergen and non-allergen food preparation.
