In Belgium, non-typhoidal salmonellosis and campylobacteriosis are the two most frequently reported foodborne illnesses. During 2005, a 71% decrease of Salmonella Enteritidis infections compared with the average annual number cases in the period 2000-2004 was recorded by the Belgian National Reference Centre for Salmonella and Shigella. After the peak of 1999, the total number of salmonellosis cases decreased gradually, with the exception of 2003 when an increase was again recorded due to the rise of isolates belonging to the serotype Enteritidis. PT4, the predominant phage type of serotype Enteriditis over recent years (except in 2003), became the second most prevalent phage type in 2005 after PT21. We present in this paper the epidemiology (incidence and trends) of human salmonellosis in Belgium and assess the role of the vaccination programme in layer flocks on the decline of the incidence of human salmonellosis and foodborne outbreaks due to S. Enteritidis.
在比利时，非伤寒型沙门氏菌病和弯曲菌病是报告最为频繁的两种食源性疾病。2005年，比利时沙门氏菌和志贺氏菌国家参考中心记录显示，肠炎沙门氏菌感染病例数与2000 - 2004年期间的年均病例数相比下降了71%。自1999年达到峰值后，除2003年外，沙门氏菌病病例总数逐渐下降，2003年由于肠炎血清型分离株数量增加，病例数再次上升。PT4是近年来肠炎血清型的主要噬菌体类型（2003年除外），在2005年成为仅次于PT21的第二大流行噬菌体类型。我们在本文中介绍了比利时人类沙门氏菌病的流行病学情况（发病率和趋势），并评估了蛋鸡群疫苗接种计划对人类沙门氏菌病发病率下降以及由肠炎沙门氏菌引起的食源性疾病暴发的作用。
