We report a large-scale outbreak of hand, foot and mouth disease (HFMD) in France. As at 28 September 2021, 3,403 cases have been reported (47% higher than in 2018-19). We prospectively analysed 210 clinical samples; 190 (90.5%) were enterovirus-positive. Most children presented with atypical HFMD. Coxsackievirus (CV)A6 (49.5%; 94/190) was predominant; no enterovirus A71 was detected. Dermatological and neurological complications of HFMD justify prospective syndromic and virological surveillance for early detection of HFMD outbreaks and identification of associated types.
我们报告了法国的一次大规模手足口病(HFMD)暴发。截至 2021 年 9 月 28 日,共报告了 3403 例病例(比 2018-19 年增加了 47%)。我们前瞻性分析了 210 份临床样本;190 份(90.5%)为肠道病毒阳性。大多数患儿表现为非典型手足口病。柯萨奇病毒 A6(49.5%;94/190)占主导地位;未检测到肠道病毒 A71。手足口病的皮肤和神经并发症表明,需要进行前瞻性综合征和病毒学监测,以便早期发现手足口病暴发并识别相关类型。
