Background: With characteristics of fast transmission and widespread, malaria was the most deadly parasite disease. In China, 13 ministries and commissions jointly issued the Action Plan For Malaria Eradication, which was aimed to reach malaria elimination by 2020. Scientific analysis of the epidemic situation and assessment of re-transmission risk of malaria in Changsha, an important city of central China, are of certain reference value for China to pass the World Health Organization malaria control assessment in 2020.Method: The epidemic situation and control process of malaria in Changsha from 1950 to 2019 have been illustrated, and an adjusted assessment method was used to analyze the transmission risk index (MRI) of imported malaria in different districts of Changsha in recent years. All data were from Changsha Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).Results: (1) From 1950 to 2019, there were 282,394 incidences and 39 deaths of malaria in Changsha, the incidence rate has been controlled below 10/1,000,000 after 1990; The fatality rate of malaria in Changsha has always been at a low level, but it reached 10.28/1000 after 2010; (2) Before the year 1978, tertian was the major type of malaria in Changsha, which accounted for 92.71%, but the proportion of pernicious malaria gradually increased after 2000, which accounted for 69.3% since 2010. (3) From 1950 to 2009, the percentage of imported malaria cases in Changsha was only 2.93%; In April 2010, the last local case of malaria was reported in Liuyang, Changsha; After 2011, all cases of malaria in Changsha were imported cases, which were mainly from Africa and Southeast Asia. (4) The re-transmission risk of imported malaria in Changsha from high to low were Liuyang City, Yuelu District, Tianxin District, Yuhua District, Ningxiang County, Furong district, Wangcheng District, Changsha County and Kaifu District. Conclusion: After 70 years, implemented three stages of prevention and control measures, Changsha has achieved the goal of malaria elimination. However, with the imported cases increased, the risk of re-transmission of malaria in Changsha still exists, especially in Liuyang and Yuelu district. Malaria control and prevention should still be taken seriously as an important preventive work in case of the secondary spread. |
