食品伙伴網(wǎng)訊 據(jù)美國食品安全新聞網(wǎng)消息，2011年肆虐歐美地區(qū)的大腸桿菌疫情歷史罕見，導(dǎo)致約4000人患病，50人死亡。經(jīng)過專家調(diào)查，大腸桿菌O104:H4是疫情的致病菌株。在此之前，僅在韓國報(bào)道了一例由該菌株引起的疫情。
部分原文報(bào)道如下：
In May 2011, a virtually unknown strain of E. coli, known as O104:H4, made worldwide headlines when an outbreak in Germany sickened approximately 4,000 people and killed 50, including one American. This event, linked to fresh sprouts, quickly became the deadliest foodborne illness outbreak in history.
In the days following the first reports of illness, microbiological research laboratories around the globe began pooling resources to coordinate the world's first "open source" analysis of a microbial genome. In turn, this spurred an unprecedented level of focused study by international collaborators that is still going on two years later.
