Abstrakt: Differences in the monthly distribution in the number of seropositive individuals among children and adults in years with different intensity of the epidemic process have been revealed. Immunity in cases of dysentery caused by S. newcastle reflects the yearly and seasonal activation of the epidemic process in this Shigella infection both in children and adults, the seroconversion characteristics observed in the year of a high morbidity level being a more objective criterion indicating the beginning of the activation of the epidemic process in dysentery caused by S. newcastle in comparison with the commonly registered morbidity level.
