In August 2023, six locally acquired dengue virus 1 infections were detected in Lodi province, Lombardy Region, in northern Italy, where the vector is present. Four cases were hospitalised, none died. The viruses clustered with Peruvian and Brazilian strains collected between 2021 and 2023. This preliminary report highlights the importance of continued integrated surveillance of imported vector-borne virus infections and the potential for tropical disease outbreaks in highly populated regions of northern Italy where competent vectors are present.
2023 年 8 月,在意大利北部伦巴第大区洛迪省发现了 6 例本地感染的 1 型登革热病毒病例,当地存在传播媒介。其中 4 例住院,无人死亡。这些病毒与 2021 年至 2023 年间在秘鲁和巴西采集的毒株聚集在一起。本初步报告强调了继续对输入性虫媒病毒感染进行综合监测的重要性,以及在存在媒介的意大利北部人口稠密地区暴发热带疾病的可能性。
