COVID-19全球大流行背景下输入性疟疾防治的应对措施

Countermeasures on imported malaria prevention and treatment in the context of COVID-19 global pandemic

世界卫生组织(WHO)宣布新型冠状病毒肺炎(COVID-19)已具有全球大流行特征,截至2020年4月4日10:00欧洲中部时间COVID-19疫情已波及全球207个国家和地区,报告COVID-19病例1 051 635人,死亡56 985人。我国疟疾病例以境外输入性病例为主,每年均有超过2 000例输入疟疾病例,在当前COVID-19全球大流行背景下,疟疾流行区合并COVID-19疫情,若不采取及时有效的输入性疟疾应对措施,极可能发生输入继发病例,甚至出现输入疟疾死亡病例,影响消除疟疾成果,加重疾病负担。本文对COVID-19全球大流行背景下输入性疟疾防治工作进行分析,探讨疟疾病例诊疗和疟疾防控应对措施,以期为输入性疟疾防治工作提供参考。

WHO declared COVID-19 had been characterized as a pandemic. By the end of April 4 10:00(CET),2020,COVID-19 epidemic had spread to 207 countries and regions in the world,and 1 051 635 confirmed with 56 985 deaths were reported. Malaria cases in China were mainly imported from abroad,with more than 2 000 imported malaria cases every year. In the context of the current global pandemic of COVID-19,if the malaria epidemic was combined with COVID-19 epidemic,and no timely and effective measures were taken to deal with imported malaria,it could likely that secondary epidemic and even death cases resulted form the imported cases will occur,which could affect the results of eliminating malaria and aggravate the burden of disease. This paper summarized the countermeasures for imported malaria control and discussed the diagnosis and treatment methods for malaria cases during global pandemic of COVID-19.
