Sera from 74 healthy Thai undergraduate students, mean age 21 + 1.7 years, were tested for the presence of IgG antibody against varicella zoster virus (anti-VZV IgG) by ELISA. Fifty-five of 74 (74.3%) individuals possessed anti-VZV IgG antibody. The presence of anti-VZV IgG was associated with a past history of varicella (p < 0.005, X2 = 33.4989). No sexual preponderance was observed. We therefore found that 1 of 4 Thai young adults was susceptible to VZV infection.
对74名健康泰国本科学生(平均年龄21±1.7岁)的血清进行了酶联免疫吸附测定(ELISA),以检测抗水痘带状疱疹病毒IgG抗体(抗VZV IgG)的存在情况。74人中有55人(74.3%)拥有抗VZV IgG抗体。抗VZV IgG的存在与水痘病史相关(p<0.005,X2=33.4989)。未观察到性别差异。因此,我们发现4名泰国年轻人中有1人易感染水痘带状疱疹病毒。
