The United Kingdom achieved interrupted endemic measles transmission for 36 months in 2016. Despite this, ongoing challenges from sporadic measles cases typically imported from abroad remain. We summarise a B3 measles genotype outbreak in south-east Wales occurring between May and September 2017, linked with other European outbreaks, and lessons learnt. Seventeen confirmed cases and one probable case occurred principally in education and healthcare-settings. Six confirmed cases attended healthcare settings when infectious, without being isolated.
英国在2016年实现了36个月的麻疹地方性传播中断。尽管如此,来自通常从国外输入的散发性麻疹病例的持续挑战依然存在。我们总结了2017年5月至9月在威尔士东南部发生的一起与其他欧洲疫情相关的B3麻疹基因型疫情,以及从中吸取的教训。17例确诊病例和1例疑似病例主要发生在教育和医疗环境中。6例确诊病例在具有传染性时前往医疗机构就诊,但未被隔离。
