Weekly Mycoplasma pneumoniae Hospitalizations in Korea
Adapted from KDCA Infectious Disease Portal (dportal.kdca.go.kr) | Updated weekly (Monday)
Mycoplasma pneumoniae follows cyclical epidemic patterns, typically peaking every 4–7 years. The most recent epidemic occurred in 2024–2025 across Asia. As DOMINO spans 2026–2028, real-time monitoring of Mycoplasma pneumoniae activity is essential for enrollment planning.
This page provides weekly updates on Mycoplasma pneumoniae surveillance data from the KDCA Infectious Disease Portal.
