Re:Why the U.S. Chills Its Eggs and Most of the World Doesn'... by zaarn on Friday May 03, 2019 @02:22AM (#19816018)
Germany had 12'000 cases of salmonella in 2016, 14'000 in 2017. USA has 300 Megacitizens, Germany 80. Germany vaccinates the chickens and does not wash or refrigerate eggs in the supermarket.

So, atleast in germany, you're 3 times less likely to get infected by salmonella, relative to the population.

I would however note that there is no reliable statistic on how many of those are due to eggs and how many are from other sources, considering meat and other products can carry it as well.
