Abstract

Objective Analyze the epidemiological characteristics of rabies in Jingxi City to provide a basis for formulating rabies control measures. Methods Descriptive epidemiological methods were used to analyze the surveillance data of rabies in Jingxi City from 2000 to 2020. Results A total of 73 rabies cases and 73 cases of rabies were reported in Jingxi City from 2000 to 2020, with an average annual incidence rate of 0.55/100,000, and a case fatality rate of 100%; cases were reported in 19 towns and townships; it occurred frequently in Summer and autumn, with 56.16% of cases from May to September. Mainly farmers, the incidence accounted for 84.93%; male incidence rate was 0.70/100,000, female incidence rate was 0.38/100,000, male and female incidence ratio was 2.04:1; the main wonding animals were dogs, accounting for 95.89%; humans No history of vaccination after exposure accounted for 97%. Conclusion The rural area Jingxi City is a key area for rabies Prevention and control. It is necessary to strengthen the propaganda of rabies prevention knowledge, standardize post-exposure treatment, and carry out large-scale dog immunization. Comprehensive prevention measures such as immunization and hunting to effectively curb the epidemic of rabies. Background: Jingxi, Guangxi is located on the border of China and Vietnam. The border with Vietnam to the south is 152.5km long. It has a subtropical monsoon climate. It has 19 villages and towns under its jurisdiction and has a total population of 670,000. Among them, ethnic minority imports account for 99.40%. The port was expanded to an international port with the approval of the state council, and the Yuexu port was also upgraded to a national first-level port. Border trade increased. Residents in rural areas have the habit of raising domestic dogs and eating dog meat. There are a large number of dogs, dog registration management, and immunization. The implementation of hunting and killing measures is not in place, the standardized disposal rate after exposure is low, and rabies epidemics occur from time to time.
