Abstract

The FBVE (Food-borne Viruses in Europe) network was initiated during a research project funded by the European Commission (contract QLK1-1999-00594). The aim of the network is to establish a framework for rapid, (pre-publication) exchange of epidemiological, virological and molecular diagnostic data on outbreaks of viral gastroenteritis and acute hepatitis due to hepatitis A and E viruses for both surveillance and research purposes.
