Epidemiological Situation of Gastroenteritis in Guadeloupe. Update as of March 15, 2013.
Epidemiological surveillance indicators, particularly the number of clinically suspected cases of gastroenteritis seen in private medical practices, point to a decline in the epidemic. However, the slight resurgence observed over the past three weeks does not yet allow us to declare the end of the epidemic.
REMINDER: To limit the spread of the viruses causing this emerging outbreak, it is essential to follow basic hygiene rules, particularly regular handwashing with soap. Parents are reminded that if their children (especially the youngest ones) show symptoms of gastroenteritis (diarrhea, vomiting), they should consult their primary care physician to prevent dehydration, which can be severe in infants.
