IJERPH, Vol. 16, Pages 3967: Clostridium perfringens Foodborne Outbreak during an Athletic Event in Northern Greece, June 2019
Conclusion: Specific standards should be kept to prevent outbreaks during athletic events. This was the first time that a foodborne outbreak due to Clostridium perfringens was investigated in the country. Laboratory investigation for toxins should be enhanced, especially in foodborne outbreaks where clinical manifestations of cases are found to be compatible with infection caused by a toxin.
