Equine influenza (EI) was first diagnosed in the Australian horse population on 24 August 2007 at Centennial Park Equestrian Centre (CPEC) in Sydney, New South Wales (NSW), Australia. By then, the virus had already spread to many properties in NSW and southern Queensland. The outbreak in NSW affected approximately 6000 premises populated by approximately 47,000 horses. Analyses undertaken by the epidemiology section, a distinct unit within the planning section of the State Disease Control Headquarters, included the attack risk on affected properties, the level of under-reporting of affected properties and a risk assessment of the movement of horses out of the Special Restricted Area. We describe the epidemiological features and the lessons learned from the outbreak in NSW.
2007年8月24日，在澳大利亚新南威尔士州悉尼百年公园马术中心（CPEC）首次确诊马流感（EI）在澳大利亚马群中出现。彼时，该病毒已传播至新南威尔士州和昆士兰州南部的许多马场。新南威尔士州的疫情影响了约6000处马场，存栏马匹约47000匹。州疾病控制总部规划部门下属的一个独立单位——流行病学部门所进行的分析，包括受影响马场的发病风险、受影响马场报告不足的程度以及对马匹移出特别限制区的风险评估。我们描述了新南威尔士州疫情的流行病学特征以及从中吸取的教训。
