Outbreak of leptospirosis in New Caledonia: diagnosis issues and burden of disease.

C Goarant1, S Laumond-Barny, J Perez, F Vernel-Pauillac, S Chanteau, A Guigon.   

Abstract

A leptospirosis epidemic affected New Caledonia during the first semester of 2008. A total of 135 cases were diagnosed with a relatively low fatality rate of 3.7%. Heavy rainfalls, related to La Niña, favoured this epidemic. The PCR, routinely used, confirmed 54% of the cases, and the microagglutination test 56%. Epidemiological and economical data on this epidemic are presented and discussed.
