Abstract:
Plague is a typical natural epidemic disease. Health education is an important part of plague prevention and control strategy. Traditional health education strategy, shortened as "Three Nos, Three Reports" , focused on avoid communication with plague vectors and surveillance report, but lack of attention on teaching the people how to protect themselves to reach subjective prevention. Based on the experiences of plague prevention in the past decades, this study updated the current plague prevention strategy to "Three Nos, Three Reports, Three Cares, Three Uses" . In other words, by keeping current "Three Nos, Three Reports" strategy, adding "Three Cares" (care about flea bites, care about infectious from cats and dogs, and care about ecological irritations) and "Three Uses" (use repellents, use flea killing drugs, and use preventive drugs in case of dangerous exposure) to improve current health education strategies on plague prevention, in order to help people getting away from plague infection.
