RESUMEN
Objective To analyze the results of malaria focus investigation and disposal in Tengchong City,Yunnan Prov-ince between 2015 and 2016,so as to provide evidences for interrupting potential malaria transmission. Methods The malaria foci were investigated and disposed according to the malaria cases reported from"China Information System for Disease Control and Prevention"in Tengchong City between 2015 and 2016. The mosquitoes were captured by mosquito-lured lamp overnight to investigate the malaria vector in local. The peripheral blood samples were collected from the local residents with a febrile history in the foci within two weeks and the accompanists of the cases,and then the rapid malaria diagnosis tests were used to screen the malaria carriers. Results Totally 145 imported malaria cases were reported in Tengchong City between 2015 and 2016,and the focus investigation and disposal rate within 7 d was 100%(145/145). A total of 16186 mosquitoes of 12 species of Anopheles were captured,among which An. sinensis was the predominant,accounting for 64.31%(10410/16186),followed by An. kun-mingensis and An. minimus,with the constituent ratios of 14.15%(2291/16186)and 11.66%(1887/16186),respectively. One person(1.96%,1/51)in the 51 accompanists of the cases was positive in the malaria rapid diagnosis test. Conclusions The malaria transmission vectors such as An. sinensis,An. kunmingensis,An. minimus etc. are still distributed in Tengchong City,and An. sinensis is the predominant species. Therefore,the relevant authorities should continue to strengthen the focus in-vestigation and disposal to interrupt the potential introduced malaria transmission by imported cases in the future.
