In 2019, a geographically focal cluster of 3 Powassan virus neuroinvasive disease cases occurred in New Jersey. We conducted a serosurvey of 273 adult area residents and estimated that immunoglobulin M seroprevalence was 0.31% (95% confidence interval [CI], .04%-1.00%) and 23% (95% CI, 7%-100%) of infections result in neuroinvasive disease.
2019年,新泽西州出现了一个集中在特定地理区域的、由3例波瓦桑病毒神经侵袭性疾病病例组成的聚集性病例群。我们对该地区273名成年居民进行了血清学调查,估计免疫球蛋白M血清阳性率为0.31%(95%置信区间[CI],0.04%-1.00%),并且23%(95%CI,7%-100%)的感染会导致神经侵袭性疾病。
