Original title: How to strengthen traceability management when you understand the knowledge of imported food from the cold chain in an article?
The client of the State Council and the Chinese government website published an article saying that China has established and launched a national imported cold chain food traceability management platform, connected to the 9 provinces (municipalities) that have been operated experimentally on the national platform, and the first stop of cold chain food imports accounted for in the country. More than 90% basically carry out the traceability of the information of the entire chain from customs entry to production and processing, wholesalers and retailers, and catering services.
Positive nucleic acids have been detected in imported cold chain foods and their outer packaging in many places.
Recently, the State Council client and the Chinese government website posted “Can you continue to eat imported food from the cold chain?” 6 Authorized Questions and Answers on the Cold Chain of the Chinese Government and State Council Client Website! “(Hereinafter” Questions and Answers “) article.
With regard to retrospective monitoring of imported food from the cold chain,The original text of the question and answer pointed out that, at present, China has established and launched a national platform for the traceability of imported cold chain food, connected to the 9 provinces (cities) that they have been operated on an experimental basis on the national platform. The information traceability of the entire chain from customs entry to production and processing, wholesalers and retailers, and catering services. The remaining 10% mainly records traceability information through paper ledgers, purchase vouchers, etc., and is also under control.
Sun Shan, general secretary of the Cold Chain Branch of the Shanghai Logistics Association, said in an interview with a China Business News reporter that retrospective and digital monitoring is an important method to block the spread of imported food epidemics. of the cold chain. Many ports and companies have already used this method. With regard to future control trends, he believes that there are still hidden dangers in the epidemic control of port personnel involved in the exchange of goods from border trade, and personnel of customs warehouses outside the borders who come into contact with food. imported from the cold chain should strengthen the prevention and control of the epidemic.
How to strengthen traceability management?
The article “Questions and Answers” pointed out that those without an inspection and quarantine certificate, without an accounting test report, without a disinfection certificate and without traceability information cannot go on the market.
The article also shows that the client sub-program of the State Council has recently launched the cold chain food traceability service area and has now connected to the cold chain traceability platforms in Beijing, Tianjin, Shanghai. , Chongqing and other places, and other regions will continue to access it. Producers and operators of imported cold chain food must faithfully upload traceability data, such as the origin and flow of imported food from the cold chain, as required, and consumers can scan the code for information. product traceability.
Wei Bangshun, general manager of Shaanxi Yerun Supply Chain Co., Ltd., said in an interview with a China Business News reporter that in the entire international cold chain transportation chain, the main links that are currently abnormal are ports, collection and distribution markets, and major storage centers.
In terms of port management, Sun Shan said that taking the port of Shanghai as an example, the port of Shanghai began to establish a “transit inspection warehouse” in November to conduct sterilization tests for imported food from the cold chain, establishing the first line of defense; then the second line of defense. Logistics chain companies then carry out the disposal and storage of each piece, and layered protection nets to ensure the safety of imported food from the cold chain in circulation.
Regarding the distribution market and the main storage centers, Wei Bangshun said that when imported frozen products enter the container and are transferred to the warehouse, they are operated under better natural ventilation conditions and have a certain natural death effect. After entering the storage area, staff will remove the air in designated cold storage.
He also said that the logistics company has established traceability information for products, and each batch of products has been issued with a single three certificates, namely the “Product List”, “Incoming Product Inspection and Quarantine Certificate” and “Portable Imported Cold Chain Food Sterilization Registration Certificate”. And “Certificate of inspection of nucleic acids for imported products”.
Regarding the “traceability of full chain information” mentioned in the previous question and answer, Wang Zhen, general manager of the intelligent cold chain control division of Yiliu Technology, said in an interview with a reporter from China Business News that based on the cold chain traceability platform storage and transportation data, it can effectively realize the “warehouse and transportation integration” and solve the problem of data islands. It can not only perform traceability, but also improve the circulation quality of the entire cold chain.
In Wei Bangshun’s view, firstly, the traceability system itself is the process of digitizing the product; second, big data can effectively analyze the source market, sales area, consumer participation analysis, and product circulation efficiency; third, digitization will make the entire chain more transparent and secure. It can be intuitively described and presented to consumers.
“The epidemic has a great impact on the international cold chain transport industry. But, on the other hand, it will make government regulators pay close attention, introduce corresponding measures, promote the application of new technologies and participate in the market. to accelerate the implementation of solutions, “said Wei Bangshun.
The overall positive rate of cold chain foods is very low
“Questions and Answers” indicated that, although the amount of imported food from the cold chain has increased in the number of viruses, the overall positive rate of food from the cold chain is very low and the public does not have to be too nervous.
“Q&A” indicated that at the end of November, the positive rate of random inspections was 0.48 per 10,000, mainly in food packaging. Disinfection in the production and operation of food in the cold chain consists of disinfecting the surface of the packaging, mainly to prevent the possible risk of infection by contact in the circulation link. Also, a positive nucleic acid does not necessarily mean that it is infectious. Disinfection is to inactivate the virus, not destroy the nucleic acid. Live virus, killed virus, and virus fragments can all be positive.
Since July, positive nucleic acids have been detected in imported cold chain food and its outer packaging in many places. Wei Bangshun believes that this is mainly because the cold chain transport link favors the survival of the virus and the source of the product has two aspects where infected people come into contact with frozen products. Caused by.
From the perspective of import and export trade, Wei Bangshun said that the storage environment for imported frozen food is minus 18 degrees, and the survival period of the virus in low-temperature environments is longer. “The transport tool Cold chain food is primarily a container, which has a closed space and poor airflow conditions. This environment is conducive to the survival of the virus. “
From the perspective of the product’s country of origin, Wei Bangshun said that the local work environment may have infections from staff or other sources of infection that directly or indirectly contact quasi-imported frozen food. Since November, frozen foods exported to China from the United States, Brazil, Russia, India and other countries have frequently tested positive for nucleic acids.
The aforementioned countries are currently the most seriously affected countries. According to data from Johns Hopkins University on the 29th, the cumulative number of confirmed cases of new coronary pneumonia in the United States, India, Brazil and Russia ranked among the top four in the world.
Prior to this, many countries have repeatedly exposed cluster infections in meat factories and elsewhere. According to data from the Farm Animal Investment Risk and Return Initiative (FAIRR), in its evaluation of the 60 largest meat, seafood and dairy companies in the world, 44 companies (representing 73% of the total) are listed as “high risk” .
Zhao Dahai, doctoral supervisor of the School of Public and International Affairs at Shanghai Jiao Tong University and executive director of the Joint Center for Health Policy Research at Shanghai Jiao Tong University and Yale University, said in an interview with a China Business News reporter that meat processing is a labor-intensive industry, generally In a closed environment, it favors the spread of the virus. From the perspective of transmission channels, novel coronaviruses found in food are all transmitted from confirmed patients, thus forming a closed “human-food-human” transmission loop.
“Questions and Answers” noted that infected people are high-risk groups, such as porters, who repeatedly come into contact with the outer packaging of imported food from the cold chain in a specific environment. There are no case reports of the new coronavirus caused by consumer contact with food and packaging.
“Q&A” stated that the new coronavirus is a respiratory virus, which is transmitted mainly through respiratory droplets and close person-to-person contact, and the possibility of infection through the digestive tract is very low.
Wu Zunyou, chief epidemiologist at the China Center for Disease Control and Prevention, also recently said that if consumers accidentally buy contaminated food, the risk of infection is also very low. “As long as people maintain hand hygiene and are kept raw and cooked separately, the risk of infection will be very small,” he said.
