摘要

最近，在美利坚合众国密西西比州墨西哥湾沿岸地区发现了导致类鼻疽的病原体，即假鼻疽伯克霍尔德菌，该病原体与人类病例有关，并在受影响地区的土壤中作为细菌存在。因此，美国疾病控制与预防中心首次宣布该病原体为美国大陆的地方病。这一观点讨论了研究、公共卫生社区和政府机构需要解决的一些问题。

The public health significance of finding autochthonous melioidosis cases in the continental United States.

Recently, the pathogen that causes melioidosis, Burkholderia pseudomallei, was found in the Gulf Coast region of Mississippi, United States of America, associated with human cases and as bacteria in the soil of affected areas. Therefore, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has declared the pathogen as endemic in the continental United States for the first time. This viewpoint discusses some issues that the research, public health communities, and government agencies need to address.

期刊介绍： PLOS Neglected Tropical Diseases publishes research devoted to the pathology, epidemiology, prevention, treatment and control of the neglected tropical diseases (NTDs), as well as relevant public policy. The NTDs are defined as a group of poverty-promoting chronic infectious diseases, which primarily occur in rural areas and poor urban areas of low-income and middle-income countries. Their impact on child health and development, pregnancy, and worker productivity, as well as their stigmatizing features limit economic stability. All aspects of these diseases are considered, including: Pathogenesis Clinical features Pharmacology and treatment Diagnosis Epidemiology Vector biology Vaccinology and prevention Demographic, ecological and social determinants Public health and policy aspects (including cost-effectiveness analyses).
