Quite a bit more data on the EU in this report from the EFSA [1]. Search for "salmonellosis".

In short, there's a lot more going on that just eggs.

One interesting factoid is that in Finland, the egg production chain has been virtually salmonella free for decades. Cases of salmonellosis are mostly contracted abroad, the most common source being tourist trips to Thailand.
