Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the vector control and prevention capability construction in county-level disease prevention and control institutions (CDCs) of Chongqing Municipality, so as to provide insights into the enhancement of vector control and prevention capability.
Methods:Data on the establishment of vector control and prevention departments, staffing, laboratory construction, and self-evaluation of performance capability of 39 county-level CDCs in Chongqing Municipality were collected through questionnaire surveys in 2020 and 2023. The capability and changes of vector control and prevention in these CDCs were analyzed using descriptive methods.
Results:Compare to 2020, the proportion of specialized vector control and prevention departments in county-level CDCs of Chongqing Municipality in 2023 increased from 10.26% to 17.95%. The number of staff engaged in vector control and prevention increased from 147 to 178. The proportions of full-time staff, permanent staff, and staff with relevant majors increased from 8.84%, 87.76% and 58.50% to 14.61%, 90.45% and 60.67%, respectively. The average laboratory areas increased from 14.49 m2 to 49.32 m2. The coverage rates of the laboratories for classification, identification and specimen storage and the laboratories for resistance determination increased from 20.51% to 61.54% and 43.59%. The coverage rates of the laboratories for the efficacy test of hygienic insecticides, the laboratories for the efficacy test of rodenticides in rooms, and the laboratories for etiology increased from 0 to 15.38%, 15.38% and 20.51%, respectively (all P<0.05). All county-level CDCs had the capabilities of population survey and density monitoring. The proportions of those with the capabilities of organizing prevention and control training, evaluating the effectiveness of vector control and prevention, and detecting pathogens carried by vectors increased from 46.15%, 30.77% and 0 to 69.23%, 53.85% and 38.46%, respectively (all P<0.05).
Conclusions:The set up of professional departments for vector control and prevention, the number of staff, the laboratory coverage rate, and the proportion of those with the performance capabilty in county-level CDCs in Chongqing Municipality were improved. However, it is necessary to strengthen the construction of the professional teams for vector control and prevention, and fully realize the laboratory function.
