The trends of influenza infection in Suriname were assessed from February 2010 through February 2011. Testing of 393 patients with symptoms of acute respiratory infection (ARI) revealed 15.3% Influenza B and 18.6% could be identified as influenza A positive, consisting of 56% influenza A(H1N1)pdm09 and 44% seasonal A(H3N2). Influenza infection occurred throughout the year, and all three influenza types affected young children as the primary population. The annual incidence of A(H1N1)pdm09 was 6.88 per 100,000 inhabitants [CI] 4.87-9.45. The spread of influenza could neither be linked to tourist flow from the Netherlands nor to contact rates related to school schedules.
2010 年 2 月至 2011 年 2 月期间,对苏里南的流感感染趋势进行了评估。对 393 名出现急性呼吸道感染(ARI)症状的患者进行检测后发现,15.3%的患者为乙型流感,18.6%的患者可被鉴定为甲型流感阳性,其中 56%为甲型 H1N1pdm09,44%为季节性 H3N2。流感全年均有发生,三种流感类型均主要影响幼儿。甲型 H1N1pdm09 的年发病率为每 10 万人 6.88 例[95%置信区间(CI):4.87-9.45]。流感的传播既不能与来自荷兰的游客流量联系起来,也不能与与学校日程相关的接触率联系起来。
