摘要

我们报告了与瑞士寻求庇护者中爆发的遗传相关的毒性白喉棒状杆菌感染的聚集性感染，随后影响了没有已知暴露的患者。这一发现突出了快速、跨学科疫情调查和定期疫苗接种状况评估的重要性，特别是在免疫力下降的老年人群中。

Toxigenic Corynebacterium diphtheriae Infections in Low-Risk Patients, Switzerland, 2023

We report a cluster of infections with genetically related toxigenic Corynebacterium diphtheriae linked to an outbreak among asylum seekers in Switzerland that subsequently affected patients without known exposure. This discovery highlights the importance of rapid, interdisciplinary outbreak investigations and regular vaccination status assessment, especially in elderly populations with waning immunity.

期刊介绍： Emerging Infectious Diseases is a monthly open access journal published by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. The primary goal of this peer-reviewed journal is to advance the global recognition of both new and reemerging infectious diseases, while also enhancing our understanding of the underlying factors that contribute to disease emergence, prevention, and elimination. Targeted towards professionals in the field of infectious diseases and related sciences, the journal encourages diverse contributions from experts in academic research, industry, clinical practice, public health, as well as specialists in economics, social sciences, and other relevant disciplines. By fostering a collaborative approach, Emerging Infectious Diseases aims to facilitate interdisciplinary dialogue and address the multifaceted challenges posed by infectious diseases.
