ECDC encourages Member States to investigate small clusters and outbreaks of domestically acquired
S. Stanley infections and report findings through the EPIS-FWD platform. A questionnaire developed for the
2011–2012 outbreak is available through EPIS-FWD. ECDC also encourages all countries to participate in
ECDC’s molecular surveillance pilot study and submit PFGE patterns of S. Stanley isolates to TESSy.
