Rumors kill people, especially food rumors. Recently, the new national food rumors regulations have been issued. Let's get to know!

At present, the overall situation of food safety in China is stable and good, but various rumors around food safety occur from time to time. The reporter learned from the State Food and Drug Administration on the 26th that the office of the food safety committee of the State Council and other 10 departments recently jointly issued the notice on strengthening the prevention, control and governance of rumors of food safety, which requires the initiative to disclose government information, timely organize the disinformation of rumors, and severely punish the rumor makers and disseminators.

It is clear in the notice that the enterprises involved in the rumor are the first subject responsible for refuting the rumor. If the rumor clearly points to a specific enterprise, the food safety regulatory department shall instruct the relevant enterprise to make a voice for clarification; if the rumor points to more than one enterprise or has no specific direction, it shall organize research and judgment, take measures to stop the rumor spreading, and take appropriate ways to clarify the truth. We should strengthen the analysis of the rules and characteristics of food rumor, establish rumor case base, and improve the efficiency of identification and judgment of similar rumor and seasonal rumor.
