An outbreak of cyclosporiasis in Ontario, Canada, was investigated in the fall of 2015. Thirty-five confirmed and 10 probable cases were linked to the investigation. Epidemiological and food safety evidence implicated fresh sugar snap peas imported from Guatemala as the source of the outbreak. We describe here the first documented cyclosporiasis outbreak in Canada involving the consumption of sugar snap peas.
2015年秋季,加拿大安大略省对一起环孢子虫病疫情进行了调查。35例确诊病例和10例疑似病例与此次调查有关。流行病学和食品安全证据表明,从危地马拉进口的新鲜甜脆豌豆是此次疫情的源头。我们在此描述加拿大首例有记录的因食用甜脆豌豆而引发的环孢子虫病疫情。
