German outbreak strain is not a traditional EHEC
The German outbreak strain is not a traditional EHEC, but a variant of the diarrhea-causing Eschericha coli. Normally, this type only watery diarrhea mainly in children, but it has now received the toxin-producing property such as traditona EHEC have. It therefore gives the same symptoms as the common EHEC bacteria, ie, bllody diarrhea, and complicaations such as HUS.

The German outbreak strain is not a traditional EHEC, but a variant of the diarrhea-causing Escherichia coli. Normally, this type only watery diarrhea mainly in children, but it has now received the toxin-producing property such as traditional EHEC have. It therefore gives the same symptoms as the common EHEC bacteria, ie, bloody diarrhea, and complications such as HUS.

This type of bacteria (E. coli enteroaggregerande, EaggEC) occurs primarily in humans and not in ruminants as traditional EHEC usually does. It can be similar to EHEC infection by direct contact between people or through contaminated food.

Work contact tracing and epidemiological typing of EHEC this variant as well as traditional EHEC is continuous. This is done in collaboration between the Infectious Diseases Institute, local laboratories and county disease control units to move as quickly as possible to identify infected individuals and / or food to prevent further cases.
