An outbreak of food poisoning caused by Salmonella enteritidis phage type (PT) 6 followed a children's birthday party. Thirty of 37 (attack rate 81%) attendees were ill, with diarrhoea and fever being the most common symptoms. One child required hospital admission for rehydration. No deaths occurred. Stool specimens from 24 out of 25 people who submitted them were positive for S. enteritidis PT 6 and one was positive for S. enteritidis PT4. Epidemiological investigation indicated that home-made ice cream was the vehicle of infection. Fresh shell eggs used raw in the ice cream were the likeliest source of infection. No ice cream or eggs were available for microbiological analysis. S. enteritidis PT6 accounts for a small but increasing proportion of all salmonellas in humans and its epidemiology is thought to be similar to S. enteritidis PT4. Thus current recommendations on the use of raw eggs in cooking continue to apply.
一次由肠炎沙门氏菌噬菌体分型（PT）6引起的食物中毒事件发生在一场儿童生日派对之后。37名参与者中有30人患病（罹患率81%），腹泻和发烧是最常见的症状。一名儿童需要住院补液。无死亡病例。25名提交粪便样本的人中，24人的样本肠炎沙门氏菌PT6呈阳性，1人的样本肠炎沙门氏菌PT4呈阳性。流行病学调查表明，自制冰淇淋是感染媒介。冰淇淋中使用的新鲜带壳生鸡蛋最有可能是感染源。没有冰淇淋或鸡蛋可供进行微生物分析。肠炎沙门氏菌PT6在人类所有沙门氏菌中占比小但呈上升趋势，其流行病学特征被认为与肠炎沙门氏菌PT4相似。因此，目前关于烹饪中使用生鸡蛋的建议仍然适用。
