A typhoid fever epidemic caused by oyster-borne infection (1924 -25).
The mean number of cases with typhoid fever from 1995 to 2002 was 64 per year and 27% (121/450) were imported.
Understanding the risk factors for typhoid fever in this region could help with preventative measures.
These clinical features are also common manifestations of typhoid fever, cerebral malaria, bacterial meningitis, measles and some enterovirus infections.
Demographic and socio-economic data for each subject were collected with a standardized questionnaire, designed and pre-tested to identify risk factors for typhoid fever.
Moreover, the method is easily available in the laboratory, less expensive and user-friendly for guiding physicians to the proper treatment of typhoid fever.
Thus, the detection of decreased susceptibility to ciprofloxacin in the laboratory is essential for treating typhoid fever.
We hypothesized that consumption of raw vegetables would be associated with risk of typhoid fever.
