We performed a molecular and epidemiologic study of a healthcare-associated rhinovirus outbreak to better understand transmission in neonatal intensive care settings. Sequencing of the 7 outbreak strains revealed 4 distinct clades, indicating multiple sources. A single clade infected 3 patients in adjacent rooms, suggesting horizontal transmission. We observed 1 rhinovirus-associated death.
我们对一起与医疗保健相关的鼻病毒爆发进行了分子和流行病学研究，以便更好地了解新生儿重症监护病房中的传播情况。对 7 株爆发株的测序显示了 4 个不同的进化枝，表明存在多个来源。单一进化枝感染了相邻房间的 3 名患者，提示存在水平传播。我们观察到了 1 例与鼻病毒相关的死亡。
