Two outbreaks of human infection with Yersinia enterocolitica in Shizuoka, Japan are described. This is the first report of community outbreaks of infection with this organism in Japan, and possibly in the world. All the strains isolated in each outbreak belonged to O antigen group 3, biotype 4, of the species. Despite much effort, the source and mode of spread of the infection were not established.
本文描述了日本静冈县发生的两起人类感染小肠结肠炎耶尔森菌疫情。这是日本,甚至可能是全球首次关于该病原体社区感染疫情的报告。每起疫情中分离出的所有菌株均属于该物种的O抗原3群、生物型4。尽管付出诸多努力,但感染源及传播途径仍未明确。
