Leptospirosis
- Question
-
To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, how many cases of leptospirosis were diagnosed in each NHS Trust in England in each of the last ten years.
- Answer
-
A table showing a count of finished episode admissions in each year from 2012/13 to 2020/21 where any primary or secondary diagnosis of leptospirosis was recorded by hospital provider in England is attached. In order to protect patient confidentiality '*' appears in the table for all sub-national breakdowns, where it is possible to calculate a value between 1 and 7 from the data presented. All other sub-national data has been rounded to the nearest 5.
The UK Health Security Agency also publishes data summarising confirmed cases of selected zoonoses, including probable cases of leptospirosis reported in England and Wales between April and June 2022, which is available at the following link:
