In 2009-2011 anti-IgM antibodies against PV B19 among 12,5% of patients with exanthematous disease was detected in 9 (from 11) administrative territories of N-W region. Prevalence of anti-IgG antibodies in pregnant females (risk group) vary from 37,5 to 83,3%% in various age groups. Sufficient that most reproductively active females age group (18–35 yo) belongs to the group of risk: 49,2% (in St-Petersburg) and 40,5% (in Vologda) were anti-IgG PV B19 negative. Rational clinical laboratory diagnostics and modern surveilliance of PV B19 and other exanthematous diseases were discussed.
