Diphtheria--the continuing hazard.

I C Bowler1, B K Mandal, B Schlecht, T Riordan.   

Abstract

An unimmunized schoolchild with no history of foreign travel developed severe diphtheria. Epidemiological investigations led to the discovery of a child in the same class with cutaneous diphtheria who had just returned from Bangladesh; this highlights the importance of swabbing all skin lesions acquired in endemic areas during any outbreak investigation.
