Abstract:
Objective To analyze the epidemic situation of human brucellosis in Qinghai province,in order to provide a theoretical basis for prevention and treatment of brucellosis.Methods Five counties in Qinghai province(Ping'an county,Haiyan county,Tianjun county,Dari county and Henan county) were selected as monitoring counties in 2010,and three or four townships were selected as monitoring points in each county.People aged 7 to 60 close contacted with livestock were monitored.The methods of rose bengal plate agglutination test(RBPT) and standard tube agglutination test (SAT) were used for serological testing.Brucellosis diagnosis was based on Brucellosis Diagnostic Criteria(WS 269-2007).Results A total of 2021 high-risk subjects from 5 counties were examined for brucellosis,and 76(by RBPT) of them were serologically confirmed with a positive rate of 3.76％ (76/2021),SAT positive 15 persons,the average positive rate was 0.74％ (15/2021).The number of infections was 15 cases,average prevalence was 0.74％(15/2021 ),and 3 new eases were discovered.The seasonal peak of incidence was from February to June.Most of the eases were reported dealing with slaughtering and fur processing.Conclusions The main reasons for epidemic rise are that the source of infection is not completely clear and weak awareness of self-protection in employees.So we must strengthen the quarantine,do surveillance on occupational groups and epidemic reporting work,carry out vocational training,strengthen publicity and education,and enhance the protection awareness.Thus brucellosis epidemic will be effectively controlled.
