Other notes:
1. During this episode we use the aviation industry and its black box mindset as an example of an industry that is able to use data and field reports to inform changes to minimize accidents. Accidents still happen. For anyone affected by the recent flight incidents we give you our most sincere condolences.
2. It wasn't made super clear in this dialogue as to how the NAHMS samples would be used in any reporting related to the FSIS. The NAHMS samples will be used as was described in the consent forms. NAHMS is a statistical service that provides clinically relevant information to aid in decision making by producers, industry, and academics. The organisms and testing methods vary greatly between these various studies.
As always, thanks so much for listening! ~Rosie, Dan, and Ryan
