[Analysis on epidemiological characteristics of typhoid and paratyphoid fever and patient medical treatment seeking flow in Guizhou Province, 2015-2024].
Abstract
From 2015 to 2024, the incidence of typhoid/paratyphoid fever decreased significantly to a historical low level in Guizhou. However, it was still high compared with others areas in China. The diagnosis of typhoid/paratyphoid fever needs to be improved. A notable proportion of cases seek medical care across regions, which increases the potential risks of transmission, endemic spread, and outbreaks. It is necessary to strengthen the performance of grassroots medical institutions and conduct joint prevention and control, integration of medical and prevention, surveillance and early warning, risk assessment, standardized diagnosis, and precise intervention.
