- Abstract: Abstract：The infection rate and incidence of diphtheria have been controlled effectively under the large⁃scale immunization projects. However，in recent years，cases of diphtheria have occurred frequently at home and abroad. Except for common infection in children，the number of middle⁃aged and elderly patients also increased，indicating that the prevention and control of diphtheria still should not be ignored. This paper reviewed the etiological characteristics，pathogenic mechanism as well as the epidemic and immunization status at home and abroad of diphtheria and looked forward to the above problems.
