Abstract:
Objective To understand the schistosomiasis endemic situation of surveillance sites in order to offer the scientific evidence for schistosomiasis control in Yunnan Province.Methods According to the protocol of national surveillance of schistosomiasis,four national sites in Yunnan Province were surveyed and the results were analyzed.Results In the four surveillance sites in Yunnan Province,the average infection rate of schistosomiasis of residents was 1.92%,and the infection rates of cattle and water buffaloes were 3.65% and 6.59% respectively.The snail area was 99.44 hm2,and the average density of the snails was 0.37 snail/0.1 m2,and the snail infection rate was 0.08%.There was the feature of higher infection rate and lower infection intensity in residents in Yunnan.Conclusions The endemic situation of schistosomiasis falls obviously after the control.However,the domestic animals still play an important role in the transmission of schistosomiasis,and the snails are not well controlled in some sites.So the surveillance and control to cattle and the snail should be continuously strengthened.
