摘要

Abstract

In 2019

an outbreak of

Mycoplasma pneumoniae

(

M. pneumoniae

) occurred at a military academy in China. The attack rate (10.08%

60/595) was significantly different among the units. High-intensity training and crowded environments to which cadets are exposed are the high risk factors for the outbreak of

M. pneumoniae

. In-time prevention and control measures effectively controlled the spread of the epidemic.
