Abstract

The purpose of the study was to reveal the epidemiological features of distribution of salmonellosis and its outbreaks. The trends of salmonellosis morbidity, seasonality, age distribution were studied, and the outbreaks recorded in 2019-20023 were briefly reviewed. The incidence was high in the 1-4 age group and decreased with age. Seasonality in the summer-autumn period is characteristic of this disease. During outbreaks, Salmonella enteritidis was dominant, and probable risk factors for infection were food, especially chicken meat and dishes prepared from it.
