Spatial distribution and incidence trend of human alveolar echinococcosis in southwest Germany: increased incidence and urbanization of the disease?

Ecology and epidemiology of Echinococcus multilocularis and human alveolar echinococcosis (AE) are changing in Central Europe. Our data from a regional referral center for AE in southwest Germany suggest rising regional incidence for AE (annual incidence per 100,000 population 2004–2011: 0.12; 2012–...

description Ecology and epidemiology of Echinococcus multilocularis and human alveolar echinococcosis (AE) are changing in Central Europe. Our data from a regional referral center for AE in southwest Germany suggest rising regional incidence for AE (annual incidence per 100,000 population 2004–2011: 0.12; 2012–2019: 0.20) and emerging urban AE (of 7 cases of AE in Freiburg city dwellers none was diagnosed before 2012) calling for an intensification of E. multilocularis and AE surveillance and of AE prevention measures. ELECTRONIC SUPPLEMENTARY MATERIAL: The online version of this article (10.1007/s15010-020-01479-4) contains supplementary material, which is available to authorized users.
