At a 10x difference, it should clue you in that something is wrong. Choice quotes from a UK Gov page:

> A report published by the FSA has found it is not possible to compare foodborne disease rates effectively between countries.

> The report concludes that attempting to accurately compare different countries’ foodborne disease rates is an almost impossible task. The only way you could attempt this would be for different countries to have the same type of study with the exact same study specifications, over the same time period. Even then, differences in underlying surveillance data available in each country could cause issues, particularly in terms of determining what proportion of IID cases are due to food.
