Summary
Aim:
Analysis of trends and other main epidemiological characteristics of the most prevalent food-and water-borne diseases in the Czech Republic in the years 2007–2017.
Methods:
We performed descriptive analysis of most prevalent food-and water-borne diseases in the Czech Republic in the years 2007–2017. The data used for the analysis were taken from Czech National Electronic Surveillance System called EpiDat.
Results:
The most common food-and water-borne diseases captured within the Czech National Electronic Surveillance System with the highest number of cases reported per year were campylobacteriosis (total 232 380 cases), salmonelosis (total 127 788 cases) and viral gastrointestinal infections (total 99 631 cases) caused mainly by rotaviruses and noroviruses. The epidemiological trends changed only slightly in the analyzed years. No significant differences were observed.
Conclusions:
The epidemiological trends of the most common food-and water-borne diseases in the Czech Republic changed only slightly in the years 2007–2017. Main prevention measures for food-and water-borne diseases control in the Czech Republic remains the same with special attention to the risk groups, particularly immunocompromised and children younger than 5 years old.
