在12个月的时间里（1985年6月至1986年5月），澳大利亚中部约11000名原住民中发生了17例全身性流感嗜血杆菌感染（脑膜炎7例，菌血症6例，肺炎4例），其中1540例是5岁以下的儿童。所有这些感染均发生在 2 岁以下的儿童中。这些数字相当于1100/100 000名5岁以下儿童的发病率，这是非常高的。同期7例H.澳大利亚中部的非原住民儿童中也发现了流感侵袭性疾病（5岁以下儿童的发病率为350/100 000），发病率也很高。阿德莱德儿童医院的数据显示，南澳州南部（约占全州人口的95%）5岁以下儿童的发病率约为30/100 000。原住民儿童的病例发生在人口稀少的大片地区。因此，高发病率不太可能是局部流行病的结果。因此，像澳大利亚中部和阿拉斯加这样气候不同的地区，幽门螺杆菌的发病率很高。流感疾病，可能与拥挤和其他不利的社会经济因素有关。newline〜M.P.E.松弛
During a 12-month period (June 1985-May 1986) 17 cases of systemicHaemophilus influenzaeinfection (meningitis 7, bacteraemia 6, pneumonia 4) occurred in an aboriginal population of about 11 000 in central Australia, of whom 1540 were children <5 years of age. All these infections were in children <2 years of age. These figures are equivalent to an attack rate of 1100/100 000 children <5 years of age, which is exceptionally high. During the same period 7 cases ofH. influenzaeinvasive disease were detected in non-aboriginal children in central Australia (attack rate 350/100 000 children <5 years) which is also high. Data from the Adelaide Children's Hospital show that the rate in southern South Australia (which contains about 95% of the state's population) is about 30/100 000 children <5 years of age.The cases in aboriginal children occurred over a large and sparsely populated area. It is unlikely therefore that the high incidence rate is the result of a localized epidemic. Thus regions with climates as different as those of central Australia and Alaska share a high incidence ofH. influenzaedisease, which may be related to crowding and other adverse socioeconomic factors.newline˜M.P.E.
