Abstract:
We investigated molecular evolution and spatiotemporal dynamics of atypical Legionella pneumophila serogroup 1 sequence type 1905 and determined its long-term persistence and linkage to human disease in dispersed locations, far beyond the large 2014 outbreak epicenter in Portugal. Our finding highlights the need for public health interventions to prevent further disease spread.
摘要:
我们研究了非典型嗜肺军团菌血清群1序列类型1905的分子进化和时空动态,并确定了其长期持久性以及与分散位置的人类疾病的联系,远远超出了2014年葡萄牙大规模爆发的震中。我们的发现强调了公共卫生干预措施以防止疾病进一步传播的必要性。
