Interpretation of probability categories used in this risk assessment.
Table from ACMSF (ACM/1065) adapted from EFSA 2006 modified from OIE 2004.
| Probability category | Interpretation |
|---|---|
| Negligible | So rare that it does not merit to be considered |
| Very low | Very rare but cannot be excluded |
| Low | Rare, but does occur |
| Medium | Occurs regularly |
| High | Occurs very often |
| Very high | Events occur almost certainly |
Qualitative categories for expressing uncertainty in relation to qualitative risk estimates
Table from ACMSF (ACM/1065) adapted from EFSA 2006.
| Uncertainty category | Interpretation |
|---|---|
| Low | There are solid and complete data available; strong evidence is provided in multiple references; authors report similar conclusions |
| Medium | There are some but no complete data available; evidence is provided in a small number of references; authors report conclusions that vary from one another |
| High | There are scarce or no data available; evidence is not provided in references but rather in unpublished reports or based on observations, or personal communication; authors report conclusions that vary considerably between them |
