“…For example, Burton and Young (1996) tested for the economic effects of the BSE (bovine spongiform encephalopathy) in the United Kingdom in the 1990s using a dynamic AIDS; Piggott and Marsh (2004) also used the AIDS model to assess the impact of public information about safety concerns on meat consumption in the United States; Oniki (2006) applied the AIDS model to evaluate the willingness to accept compensation for risk after the outbreaks of BSE and E. coli O157 in Japan. On the other hand, Peterson and Chen (2005) used the Rotterdam demand systems to assess the impact of BSE on Japanese retail meat demand; and both Marsh, Schroeder (2004) and Kinnucan et al (1997) used the Rotterdam model to evaluate the impact of meat recalls, health information and generic advertising on meat consumption.…”

“…An example of a well-documented case is the BSE (bovine spongiform encephalopathy) disease both in Europe (Burton and Young, 1996;Verbeke, Ward and Viane, 2000;Sanjuan and Dawson, 2003;Mazzochi, 2006) and abroad (Peterson and Chen, 2005;Oniki, 2006;Saghaian, Maynard and Reed, 2007;Saghaian, 2007). Also, numerous researches focus on the economic effects of recalls and information from health authorities (Kinnucan et al, 1997;Herrmann, Thompson and Krischik-Bautz, 2002;Marsh, Schroeder and Minert, 2004;Piggott and Marsh, 2004).…”

Resumen: Se estiman los efectos de la influenza AH1N1 en el consumo de carne de puerco a través de un modelo de demanda de consumo AIDS (por sus siglas en inglés) para el consumo de carne en México. Adicionalmente, los efectos indirectos a través de la economía mexicana son calculados con un modelo de equilibrio general. Se concluye que el presunto riesgo de contraer la influenza AH1N1 mediante el consumo de carne de puerco provocó pérdidas económicas de 94 millones de dólares. El rumor afectó a los sectores: porcino, de venta de granos y de manufactura de alimentos, bebidas y tabaco. Las familias pobres rurales fueron las más afectadas.Abstract: This article presents estimates of AH1N1's effects on the consumption of pork through an Almost Ideal Demand System (AIDS) for meat consumption in Mexico. Additionally, indirect effects through the Mexican economy are estimated using a general equilibrium model that captures the effects of intersectoral relationships and the induced effects by the circular flow of income. It is concluded that the presumed risk of contracting AH1N1 via pork consumption provoked total economic losses of $94 million. The rumor affected the pork sector, the grains sector and the manufacturing sector of food, beverages and tobacco. The poor rural households were the most affected.

Important determinants of risk perceptions associated with foods are the extent to which the potential hazards are perceived to have technological or naturally occurring origins, together with the acute vs. chronic dimension in which the potential hazard is presented (acute or chronic). This study presents a case study analysis based on an extensive literature review examining how these hazard characteristics affect people's risk and benefit perceptions, and associated attitudes and behaviors. The cases include E. coli incidences (outbreaks linked to fresh spinach and fenugreek sprouts), contamination of fish by environmental pollutants, (organochlorine contaminants in farmed salmon), radioactive contamination of food following a nuclear accident (the Fukushima accident in Japan), and GM salmon destined for the human food chain. The analysis of the cases over the acute vs. chronic dimension suggests that longitudinal quantification of the relationship between risk perceptions and impacts is important for both acute and chronic food safety, but this has infrequently been applied to chronic hazards. Technologies applied to food production tend to potentially be associated with higher levels of risk perception, linked to perceptions that the risk is unnatural. However, for some risks (e.g. those involving biological irreversibility), moral or ethical concerns may be more important determinants of consumer responses than risk or benefit perceptions. (Lack of) trust has been highlighted in all of the cases suggesting transparent and honest risk-benefit communications following the occurrence of a food safety incident. Implications for optimizing associated risk communication strategies, additional research linking risk perception, and other quantitative measures, including comparisons in time and space, are suggested.
