[Measures and effect of malaria prevention and control in Libo County]
Objective:
To understand the implementation status and effect of prevention and control of malaria in Libo County, so as to provide the evidence for improving the malaria elimination working.
Methods:
The data about malaria from the county CDC and county hospital were collected and 16 villages from 8 townships were randomly sampled and 10 villagers of each village were investigated. Other information about the prevention and control of malaria was also investigated.
Results:
The incidence of malaria was decreasing annually, from 5.75 per 10,000 in 2008 to zero in 2012. The malaria monitoring could be well conducted in the county and township levels. The infection source could be controlled in time. The utilization rate of anti-mosquito facilities in the residents was 93.25% and the awareness rate of knowledge about malaria prevention and control was 40.13%.
Conclusions:
The implementation and effect of prevention and control of malaria are satisfactory in Libo County, but the medium control is limited and the active protection consciousness of the residents is not strong. Therefore, the task of malaria elimination is still very arduous.
