摘要

1981年在新加坡，柯萨奇病毒A - 16引起的手足口病大爆发期间进行了流行病学研究。大多数病例集中在人口密集的公共屋邨，发病率最高的是5岁以下儿童。12岁以下儿童的平均继发率为76.7%，而总体发病率为31.3%。潜伏期为1至7天。有利于在家庭内传播感染的因素包括与指示病例共用家庭和个人物品。这种病很轻，而且是自限性的。

An outbreak of hand, foot, and mouth disease in Singapore.

Epidemiological studies were carried out during an extensive outbreak of hand, foot and mouth disease caused by coxsackievirus A 16 in Singapore in 1981. Most of the cases were concentrated in densely populated public housing estates, and the morbidity rate was highest in children under 5 years of age. The mean secondary attack rate for children under 12 years of age was 76.7% compared with an overall rate of 31.3%. The incubation period ranged from 1 to 7 days. Factors favouring the transmission of infection within a household included sharing of household and personal articles with the index case. The disease was mild and self-limiting.
