ABSTRACT: Enterovirus A71 (EV-A71) inactivated vaccines have been widely inoculated among children in Kunming City after it was approved. However, there was a large-scale outbreak of Enteroviruses (EVs) infection in Kunming, 2018. The epidemiological characteristics of HFMD and EVs were analysed during 2008-2018, which are before and three years after EV-A71 vaccine starting to use. The changes in infection spectrum were also investigated, especially for severe HFMD in 2018. The incidence of EV-A71 decreased dramatically after the EV-A71 vaccine starting use. The proportion of non-CV-A16/EV-A71 EVs positive patients raised to 77.17-85.82%, while, EV-A71 and CV-A16 only accounted for 3.41-7.24% and 6.94-19.42% in 2017 and 2018, respectively. CV-A6 was the most important causative agent in all clinical symptoms (severe HFMD, HFMD, Herpangina and fever), accounting from 42.13% to 62.33%. EV-A71 only account for 0.36-2.05%. In severe HFMD, CV-A6 (62.33%), CV-A10 (11.64%), and CV-A16 (10.96%) were the major causative agent in 2018. EV-A71 inactivated vaccine has a good protective effect against EV-A71 and induced EVs infection spectrum changefully. EV-A71 vaccine has no or insignificant cross-protection effect on CV-A6, CV-A10, and CV-A16. Herein, developing 4-valent combined vaccines is urgently needed.
