RESUMO
Objective To analyze the epidemic characteristics of influenza in children in Jinshan District of Shanghai，so as to provide scientific basis for prevention and control of influenza in children. Methods We analyzed the surveillance data as well as the results of virus isolation and identification in children with influenza-like illness （ILI） in Jinshan District of Shanghai from January 2010 to December 2019. Results There were two annual epidemic peaks in 2010， 2016， 2017 and 2018， one annual epidemic peak in winter and spring in 2011 and 2013， and two annual epidemic peaks in 2012， 2014， 2015 and 2019. A total of 3 859 ILI cases were collected in the past 10 years， and 848 positive virus strains were isolated， with a positive rate of 21.97%. Among them， 371 were seasonal H3N2， 163 were new H1N1， 314 were type B（among them， 226 were yamagata and 88 were victoria）. The positive rates of influenza virus in different children groups were 0.88% in scattered children， 6.76% in kindergarten children， and 14.33% in students， respectively （P= 0.001）. Conclusion From January 2010 to December 2019， seasonal H3N2 was the predominant virus strain in children influenza epidemic in Jinshan District of Shanghai. The influenza epidemic shows a strong seasonal feature with double peaks in winter/spring， summer or autumn. The positive rate of influenza virus in middle school students is the highest in different age groups， followed by kindergarten children.
RESUMO
Objective To understand the epidemic characteristics of different virus types of hand, foot and mouth disease (HFMD) in Zhaotong City, and provide guidance and recommendations for the prevention and control of HFMD, and to analyze seasonal characteristics of different virus types of HFMD in Zhaotong City. Methods The epidemiological characteristics of different virus types of HFMD in Zhaotong City from 2014 to 2017 were analyzed using the concentration and circular distribution methods. Results The main pathogens detected were EV71, Cox A16 and other enteroviruses, which were 216, 182, and 294, respectively, accounting for 57.45%, 73.44%, and 67.11%. M was 0.86, indicating that EV71 had strong seasonality. The Rayleigh test showed statistically significant differences (Z = 99.53, P <0.001). ā = 157 °, the peak day of onset was May 10, similar to untyped (May 16), the peak period was April 21-June 1, and the epidemic period was April 1-June 21. Conclusion According to the incubation period of hand-foot-mouth disease and the period of time during which the vaccine develops protective effects, vaccination of hand-foot-mouth disease vaccine at the peak period has a good guiding significance for the timeliness and pertinence of vaccination.
