On February 26, 2025, the Norwegian Food Safety Authority, known as Mattilsynet, announced the detection of Salmon Infectious Anemia (SIA) in various types of fish and food items. This incident is classified as an outbreak, highlighting the public health risks associated with the spread of this viral disease.

Salmon Infectious Anemia primarily affects salmon species and can lead to significant economic losses in aquaculture. The presence of this disease poses a threat not only to fish health but also raises concerns regarding food safety and the potential impact on consumer products derived from affected fish.

Mattilsynet's identification of SIA in fish and food products necessitates heightened surveillance and monitoring in the aquaculture industry. The authority is responsible for ensuring that food products meet safety standards and are free from harmful pathogens.

As this outbreak unfolds, further investigations will likely take place to determine the extent of the impact and to implement necessary measures to control the spread of the disease. Stakeholders in the fishing and food production sectors are advised to stay informed on the developments related to this incident.
