Abstract

Over the past 10-15 years, only a few cases of diphtheria have been reported in the Saratov region. Along with a sharp decrease in the number of patients with diphtheria, their age composition has also changed. Since 1963, adults and adolescents have predominated among those with diphtheria. In 1978, 4 people aged 20 to 39 were ill with diphtheria.
