In Denmark recurrent epidemics of Mycoplasma pneumoniae infections have been described since the 1950s at intervals of approximately four to six years. The latest epidemic occurred in 2004/05 followed by two years of high incidence and more than three years of low incidence. Due to a recent increase in diagnosed cases since late summer 2010, we conducted a survey of positive M. pneumoniae PCR tests performed by clinical microbiology departments in Denmark, which indicated that a new epidemic may be underway.
自 20 世纪 50 年代以来，丹麦每隔大约四到六年就会发生一次肺炎支原体感染的反复流行。最近一次流行发生在 2004/05 年，随后的两年发病率较高，三年多来发病率较低。由于自 2010 年夏末以来确诊病例的增加，我们对丹麦临床微生物学部门进行的肺炎支原体 PCR 检测阳性结果进行了调查，结果表明可能正在发生新的流行。
