Abstract:
Objective To analyze the monitoring results of severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome (SFTS) in Shiyan, Hubei province, and to provide a scientific basis for the prevention and control of SFTS. Methods Descriptive epidemiological analysis was conducted on the surveillance data of SFTS, and real-time PCR was performed for detecting SFTSV RNA. Results A total of 54 laboratory-confirmed cases of SFTS were reported in Shiyan from 2011 to 2022, including 5 deaths (9.26%). The cases mainly occurred in March to October, with a peak in April to August (85.18%). People over 50 years old were the high-risk group (94.44%), and farmers were the high-risk occupation (92.59%). The male to female sex ratio was 0.64:1. The three northern counties (Danjiangkou City, Yunyang District, and Yunxi County) were high-incidence areas (90.74%). There was no statistical difference in the positive rates of sampling between within 7 days and 8-11 days after onset (66.67% vs. 57.14%) (Fisher's precision probability test , P＝0.674 ). Conclusion The incidence of SFTS in Shiyan is mainly sporadic, dominated by middle-aged and elderly people and farmers, and shows obvious seasonal and regional characteristics . It is necessary to strengthen vector management, health education, SFTS case reporting and sample collection, and inspection management of high-risk groups, and increase prevention and control efforts in the three northern counties of Shiyan.
