pubmed:abstractText |
A community outbreak of 36 cases of Cryptosporidium infection which occurred during Spring 1986 in Great Yarmouth and Waveney is described. A period prevalence study suggested that there was a more widespread outbreak of diarrhoeal illness in the locality although only 3/68 stool samples obtained at a median time interval of 38 days from the onset of symptoms contained Cryptosporidium oocysts. The distribution of cases of cryptosporidiosis in time and place suggested person to person spread rather than a common vehicle. A retrospective matched case-control study provided no evidence of water borne spread.
