Two different instruments. Items before August 1 carry a status tag (confirmed, developing, preliminary, reported) — an editor's call on the item. From August 1 they carry an Admiralty rating, which scores the source and the information separately. The chart puts both on one axis so the shape is readable, but they are not the same measurement and the archive does not convert one into the other. Every column is labelled with its own real marker.

How this thread was assembled. By pattern, not by judgement. An item joins this thread when its headline matches one of /\brecall/i, /\bsalmonella\b/i, /\bcyclospora\b/i, /\bfoodborne\b/i, /\bjalape/i, /\blettuce\b/i, /\begg\b/i, /food[- ]safety/i, or when its body contains one of the unambiguous terms /\bsalmonella\b/i, /\bcyclospora\b/i. The matching rule is printed against every entry above, so you can check the work. Nothing here infers a connection between two stories — an item can appear in more than one thread, and 70 of the archive's 210 items appear in none.
