Vier Menschen, die in den letzten Tagen in Deutschland waren, haben anscheinend den neuen EHEC-Erreger in die USA mitgebracht:
In the United States, one confirmed and three suspected cases of STEC O104:H4 infections have been identified in persons who recently traveled to Hamburg, Germany, where they were likely exposed. One case of HUS in Massachusetts has been confirmed as matching the German outbreak strain. Among the three suspected cases, two are cases of HUS, one case each in Michigan and Wisconsin. The third suspected case, a person with Shiga toxin-positive diarrheal illness, is still under investigation.(Quelle)
