摘 要：Mycoplasma pneumoniae(M.pneumoniae)is one of the most important pathogens for community-acquired pneumonia worldwide,especially in children and adolescents[1,2].M.pneumoniae is easily transmitted through droplets or direct contact in densely populated,enclosed,or poorly ventilated environments.The incubation period is 1-3 weeks,and it is contagious from the incubation period to a few weeks after clinical symptom relief.M.pneumoniae infection can occur in any season,and there are differences in the epidemic seasons among regions in China[3].The most suitable culture temperature for M.pneumoniae is between 35℃C and 37 C,and therefore,hot weather may make it survive longer in the environment and spread further.Infection is more common in autumn and winter in northern China,while it is more prevalent in summer and autumn in southern China.
