ABSTRACT
Hydrological disasters are associated with infectious disease outbreaks and epidemics. Hydrological disasters will lead to water pollution, increased vulnerability to diseases, and increased density of vectors. These factors will facilitate the outbreaks of water-borne/food-borne diseases, vector-borne diseases, and air-borne/contagious diseases. Pre-event preparedness for disasters and post-event reconstruction of both disease surveillance system and water-supply system are key measures to prevent infectious disease outbreaks caused by hydrological disasters. This study reviews the domestic and overseas experiences of controlling infectious diseases after hydrologic disasters, outlines the spectrum of post-disaster infectious disease as well as their epidemiological characteristics, and provides practicable suggestions accordingly.
