2 Overview Paralytic shellfish poisoning Shellfish monitoring in Tasmania 2015 outbreak Outbreak response Discussion Opportunities Future predictions
3 Paralytic Shellfish Poisoning Dinoflagellate algae produce paralytic shellfish toxins Bivalve filter-feeding shellfish bioaccumulate toxins Contaminated seafood smells, tastes and appears normal Not destroyed by cooking or freezing Estimated 2000 cases/year globally 15% mortality
4 PSP: Clinical Features Onset usually within 2 hours (15 mins to 10 hours) Paraesthesia Numbness Weakness Muscle incoordination Difficulty speaking Diplopia Floating sensation Difficulty breathing Severe cases respiratory failure death Treatment: supportive Lab confirmation: saxitoxin in urine or seafood
5 Paralytic Shellfish Poisoning in Tasmania Notifiable as Suspected cases of food or waterborne illness Tasmania: Anecdotal cases 1980s and 1990s 1 documented case 2011 No other cases in Australia Monitoring: Tasmanian Shellfish Quality Assurance Program (TSQAP)
6 Outbreak 2015 Algal bloom east coast Tas from July 2015 Public Health Alert Friday 2 nd October 2015 Initial two cases notified Friday 2 nd October
7 Outbreak Response Outbreak team established Case definitions: probable and confirmed Active case finding Temporary signs erected Communication to public Telephone interviews with cases Tourism information
8 Descriptive epidemiology 2 12 October 5 suspected cases notified 4 confirmed, no probable 3/4 males Age range 51-61years Median number of mussels consumed: 14 (6-35) Median time exposure symptoms:1.25 hours (30 minutes to12 hours)
9 Clinical Features Symptom Number affected Paraesthesia or numbness 4/4 Mouth or Face 4/4 Fingers 3/4 Legs 1/4 Dizziness 3/4 Floating sensation 3/4 Nausea 3/4 Vomiting 1/4 Muscle weakness 4/4 Difficulty with swallowing or 1/4 speech Hospitalisation 2/4

11 Paralytic Shellfish Toxin levels for Little Swanport and Spring Bay, July to November Regulatory limit 25 Spring Bay Mussels Total PST (mg/kg) Little Swanport Pacific Oysters Little Swanport Wild Mussel Public health alert and first 2 cases Jul 18-Jul 22-Jul 26-Jul 30-Jul 3-Aug 7-Aug 11-Aug 15-Aug 19-Aug 23-Aug 27-Aug 31-Aug 4-Sep 8-Sep 12-Sep 16-Sep 20-Sep 24-Sep 28-Sep 2-Oct 6-Oct 10-Oct 14-Oct 18-Oct 22-Oct 26-Oct 30-Oct 3-Nov 7-Nov 11-Nov 15-Nov 19-Nov 23-Nov 3rd case 4th case
12 Opportunities for improvement Monitoring for PST Clinician awareness and notification Communication Permanent signage east coast + high risk alerts Early alert when PST levels exceed limits Future planning Guidelines Fact Sheet Surveillance
13 Future predictions Harmful algal blooms increasing in frequency and geographic distribution Sunlight Water temperature Nutrient levels ph Ocean currents Winds Surface runoff Increased awareness and testing
14 Acknowledgements Michelle Green (OzFoodNet) Kate Wilson (TSQAP) Stewart Quinn, Scott Burton, Mark Veitch, David Coleman, Maureen Davey, Scott McKeown When we found ourselves in Peril Strait, we turned to eating mussels because of a shortage of fresh fish. They must have been poisonous at this time of year for a few hours later more than half of our men died. Even I was near death, but remembering my father s advice, to eat smelt (korushki) at such times, I vomited and recovered my health. Heinrich Johan Holmberg 1798
