Establishing and validating syndromic surveillance of gastrointestinal infections using routine emergency department data, Germany, 2019–2023 Open
Gastrointestinal infections in Germany account for 24.5 million outpatient visits annually. To enhance outbreak detection and trend monitoring, we developed and validated a syndrome definition for syndromic surveillance of gastrointestinal…

Changes in incidence and epidemiology of antimicrobial resistant pathogens before and during the COVID-19 pandemic in Germany, 2015–2022 Open
Background Carbapenem-resistant Gram-negative bacteria and methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) are among WHO’s priority pathogens with antimicrobial resistance (AMR). Studies suggest potential impacts of the COVID-19-pandemi…

COVID-19 cross-border case and contact tracing activities - experiences and lessons learnt, Germany, April-December 2020 Open
Background Interruption of transmission chains has been crucial in the COVID-19 response. The Emergency Operations Centre (EOC) at the Robert Koch Institute (RKI) coordinated cross-border case and contact tracing activities at the national…

Attack Rate for Wild-Type SARS-CoV-2 during Air Travel: Results from 46 Flights Traced by German Health Authorities, January–March and June–August 2020 Open
Background. Evidence on the risk of SARS-CoV-2 transmission during air travel is scarce. We aimed to estimate the attack rate for wild-type SARS-CoV-2 to improve the evidence base for the adaptation of nonpharmaceutical intervention (NPI) …

Surveillance während einer Pandemie: SARS-CoV-2 Fall- und Kontaktpersonennachverfolgung mit grenzüberschreitendem Bezug in Deutschland, 2020 Open
Einleitung Informationen zu SARS-CoV-2 Fällen und Kontaktpersonen (KP) mit grenzüberschreitendem Bezug wurden bislang nicht systematisch gesammelt und ausgewertet. Daher haben wir die Vorgänge der grenzüberschreitenden Fall- und Kontaktper…

SARS-CoV-2-Attackrate auf Flugreisen: Ergebnisse zu 46 Flügen aus der Kontaktpersonennachverfolgung in Deutschland, Januar – März und Juni – August 2020 Open
Hintergrund Die Evidenz zur Häufigkeit einer SARS-CoV-2 Übertragung auf Flugreisen ist lückenhaft. Ziel der folgenden Untersuchung war daher, die Attackrate für den SARS-CoV-2 Wildtyp nach Exposition im Flugzeug zu schätzen. Die Ergebnisse…

Laboratory Findings, Compassionate Use of Favipiravir, and Outcome in Patients With Ebola Virus Disease, Guinea, 2015—A Retrospective Observational Study Open
Background In 2015, the laboratory at the Ebola treatment center in Coyah, Guinea, confirmed Ebola virus disease (EVD) in 286 patients. The cycle threshold (Ct) of an Ebola virus–specific reverse transcription–polymerase chain reaction ass…

The European Medical Corps: first Public Health Team mission and future perspectives Open
The 2013–2016 Ebola epidemic in West Africa challenged traditional international mechanisms for public health team mobilisation to control outbreaks. Consequently, in February 2016, the European Union (EU) launched the European Medical Cor…

Different features of Vδ2 T and NK cells in fatal and non-fatal human Ebola infections Open
Altogether, the data suggest that both effector Vδ2 T-cells and NK cells may play a role in the complex network of protective response to EBOV infection. Further studies are required to characterize the protective effector functions of Vδ2…
