Abstract

Community surveillance data, based on quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction analysis, showed that one in seven children aged 5-14 years with respiratory signs tested positive for Mycoplasma pneumoniae in England and Wales from October 2011 to January 2012 - a higher proportion than that seen in previous years. Multilocus variable number tandem repeat analysis indicates that at least seven known and two novel strain types were circulating in England and Wales during this period.
