Recently, 14 persons in southeastern Florida were identified with Neisseria meningitidis serogroup W135 invasive infections. All isolates tested had matching or near-matching pulsed-field gel electrophoresis patterns and belonged to the multilocus sequence type 11 clonal complex. The epidemiologic investigation suggested recent endemic transmission of this clonal complex in southeastern Florida.
最近,佛罗里达州东南部有 14 人被确诊患有脑膜炎奈瑟菌血清群 W135 侵袭性感染。所有检测到的分离株均具有匹配或近乎匹配的脉冲场凝胶电泳模式,属于多位点序列型 11 克隆复合体。流行病学调查表明,这种克隆复合体在佛罗里达州东南部近期存在地方性传播。
