Between 16 July and 21 August 2011, 31 cases of West Nile neuroinvasive disease were reported from four regions in Greece. Of these, 17 occurred in districts that had not been affected in 2010. The reoccurrence of human cases in two consecutive years (following the large 2010 outbreak) and the spread of the virus in new areas suggest that West Nile virus is established in Greece, and its transmission may continue to occur in the future.
2011 年 7 月 16 日至 8 月 21 日期间,希腊四个地区报告了 31 例西尼罗河神经疾病病例。其中,17 例发生在 2010 年未受影响的地区。连续两年(继 2010 年的大规模爆发后)出现人类病例以及病毒在新地区的传播表明,西尼罗河病毒已在希腊立足,其传播未来可能继续发生。
