RESUMO

Introducción: Las enfermedades importadas constituyen un problema de salud para el individuo y para la población general. Debido al peligro sanitario que conlleva los viajes internacionales y el riesgo de introducción de enfermedades en la provincia. Objetivo: Caracterizar los viajeros notificados a la COVID-19 con fuente de infección en el extranjero según número reproductivo básico en la provincia Camagüey. Métodos: Se realizó un estudio observacional, descriptivo, transversal. El universo de estudio estuvo constituido por todos los viajeros notificados con la COVID-19 en la provincia que cumplieron con los criterios de inclusión y exclusión. Resultados: El escenario de intervención del 70 % de los notificados fue los centros de aislamiento para viajeros, predominaron los procedentes de Venezuela y el mes de marzo fue el de mayor incidencia, el 100 % procedían de áreas de transmisión de la enfermedad, el 55 % se encontraban asintomáticos en el momento del diagnóstico y el número reproductivo básico fue menor que uno en los municipios de destino y a nivel provincial. Conclusiones: Los centros de aislamientos para viajeros disminuyó el riesgo de dispersión de la enfermedad en los municipios de destino, los viajeros notificados tenían alta probabilidad de enfermar por proceder de países con transmisión de la enfermedad y los asintomáticos complejizaron el escenario de actuación.


Introduction: The cared illnesses constitute an important problem of health for the individual and for the general population. Due to the sanitary danger that bears the international trips and the risk of introduction of illnesses cared in the county, an investigation was carried out. Objective: To characterize the travelers notified to the COVID-19 with infection source abroad according to basic reproductive number in Camagüey's province. Methods: A observational, descriptive, traverse study was carried out. The study universe was constituted by all the travelers notified with the COVID-19 in the county that fulfilled the inclusion approaches and exclusion. Results: The scenario of intervention of 70% of those notified was the isolation centers for travelers, prevailing those coming from Venezuela and the month of March was that of more incidence, 100% came from areas of transmission of the illness, 55% was asymptomatic in the moment of the diagnosis and the basic reproductive number was smaller than one in the destination municipalities and at provincial level. Conclusions: The centers of isolations for travelers diminished the risk of dispersion of the illness in the destination municipalities, the notified travelers had high probability of making sick to come from countries with transmission of the illness and the asymptomatic ones worsen the performance scenario.

RESUMO

Background: There is always a risk of importing infectious diseases when travelling abroad. Aim: To estimate the effective risk of a Chilean of acquiring measles during a travel by countries where measles outbreaks have been reported, considering the present level of immunity in the country. Material and Methods: Previously established mathematical models using differential equations were applied to calculate the risk of acquiring measles of people traveling to endemic areas. Results: The probability of acquiring measles of a voyager is 8.11 x 10-8. Conclusions: These estimations help decision making about preventive measures for travelers to endemic measles areas.

RESUMO

International travel is growing despite economic and geographical challenges. Travellers should seek pretravel advice 4 to 6 weeks before departure. Required immunisations include yellow fever and meningococcal vaccines. The common recommended immunisations are based on risk assessment. These include typhoid, cholera, hepatitis A, Japanese encephalitis and rabies vaccine. Common illnesses in returned travellers are mainly due to gastrointestinal diseases, febrile diseases and dermatologic diseases. Evaluation of the travel-related illness requires an understanding of geographical distribution of infections, risk factors for transmission of infection, incubation periods of common infections, clinical presentation and appropriate laboratory investigations. Syndromic approach to the evaluation of illness in a returned traveller is important for post-travel diagnosis.
