Abstract

Foodborne diseases are ongoing and significant public health concerns. This study analysed data obtained from the Foodborne Outbreaks Surveillance System of Wenzhou to comprehensively summarise the characteristics of foodborne outbreaks from 2012 to 2022. A total of 198 outbreaks were reported, resulting in 2,216 cases, 208 hospitalisations, and eight deaths over 11 years. The findings suggested that foodborne outbreaks were more prevalent in the third quarter, with most cases occurring in households (30.8%). Outbreaks were primarily associated with aquatic products (17.7%) as sources of contamination. The primary transmission pathways were accidental ingestion (20.2%) and multi-pathway transmission (12.1%). Microbiological aetiologies (46.0%), including Vibrio parahaemolyticus, Salmonella ssp., and Staphylococcus aureus, were identified as the main causes of foodborne outbreaks. Furthermore, mushroom toxins (75.0%), poisonous animals (12.5%), and poisonous plants (12.5%) were responsible for deaths from accidental ingestion. This study identified crucial settings and aetiologies that require the attention of both individuals and governments, thereby enabling the development of effective preventive measures to mitigate foodborne outbreaks, particularly in coastal cities.

2012-2022 年中国温州市食源性疾病暴发分析。
食源性疾病是持续存在的重大公共卫生问题。本研究通过分析温州市食源性疫情监测系统数据,综合总结2012 - 2022年温州市食源性疫情的特点。11年间共报告了198次疫情,造成2,216例病例,208人住院,8人死亡。调查结果表明,食源性暴发在第三季度更为普遍,大多数病例发生在家庭中(30.8%)。疫情主要与水产品(17.7%)有关,是污染源。主要传播途径为误食(20.2%)和多途径传播(12.1%)。微生物病原学(46.0%):副溶血性弧菌、沙门菌;和金黄色葡萄球菌被确定为食源性暴发的主要原因。此外,蘑菇毒素(75.0%)、有毒动物(12.5%)和有毒植物(12.5%)是导致意外摄入死亡的原因。这项研究确定了需要个人和政府关注的关键环境和病因,从而能够制定有效的预防措施,以减轻食源性疾病暴发,特别是在沿海城市。

期刊介绍: Epidemiology & Infection publishes original reports and reviews on all aspects of infection in humans and animals. Particular emphasis is given to the epidemiology, prevention and control of infectious diseases. The scope covers the zoonoses, outbreaks, food hygiene, vaccine studies, statistics and the clinical, social and public-health aspects of infectious disease, as well as some tropical infections. It has become the key international periodical in which to find the latest reports on recently discovered infections and new technology. For those concerned with policy and planning for the control of infections, the papers on mathematical modelling of epidemics caused by historical, current and emergent infections are of particular value.
