A community waterborne nonbacterial gastroenteritis outbreak occurred in Eagle-Vail, Colorado in March 1981. Illness (defined as vomiting and/or diarrhea) was statistically associated with water consumption (chi 2 for linear trend = 7.07, p less than .005). Five of seven persons associated with the outbreak were infected with rotavirus as shown by virus detection or serological methods. Bacterial pathogens, Giardia lamblia, and Norwalk virus were excluded as responsible agents. Rotavirus should be looked for as a cause of waterborne outbreaks.
1981年3月,科罗拉多州伊格尔-韦尔市发生了一起社区水源性非细菌性肠胃炎疫情。疾病(定义为呕吐和/或腹泻)与饮水在统计学上具有相关性(线性趋势卡方检验=7.07,p<0.005)。通过病毒检测或血清学方法显示,与此次疫情相关的7人中,有5人感染了轮状病毒。细菌性病原体、蓝氏贾第鞭毛虫和诺沃克病毒被排除为致病因素。应将轮状病毒视为水源性疫情的一个病因进行排查。
