The largest outbreak of salmonellosis in 25 years in Stockholm County occurred during September - October 2006. A total of 115 persons who had a meal at a restaurant in Stockholm were notified as cases of salmonellosis through the Swedish surveillance system. The probable vehicle of the outbreak was mung beans, soaked in lukewarm water for 24 hours before being served at the restaurant. These mung beans had been included in all dishes served in the restaurant and the outbreak was terminated when they were excluded from the menu. Either Salmonella Bareilly or Salmonella Virchow were isolated from affected persons. No person was found to have an infection with both serotypes. The majority of affected persons were females with a median age of 34 years. This and similar outbreaks associated with consumption of vegetables and fruits highlight the increasing importance of fresh produce as vehicle for foodborne outbreaks in Europe.
2006年9月至10月期间，斯德哥尔摩县发生了25年来最大规模的沙门氏菌病疫情。通过瑞典监测系统，共有115名在斯德哥尔摩一家餐厅用餐的人被通报为沙门氏菌病病例。此次疫情的可能传播媒介是绿豆，这些绿豆在餐厅上桌前用温水浸泡了24小时。餐厅提供的所有菜肴中都包含这些绿豆，当它们从菜单中剔除后，疫情得到了控制。从受感染人员中分离出了巴雷利沙门氏菌或维尔肖沙门氏菌。没有发现任何人感染这两种血清型。大多数受影响人员为女性，年龄中位数为34岁。此次疫情以及与食用蔬菜和水果相关的类似疫情凸显了新鲜农产品作为欧洲食源性疾病暴发传播媒介的重要性日益增加。
