In Thanjavur district, the occurrence of Japanese encephalitis (JE) is very low and the district is free of epidemics. Among children aged 5-12 yr, the infection rates for JE in two consecutive transmission seasons of 1991-92 and 1992-93, were 1.8 and 5.1 per cent respectively. A high cattle to pigs ratio (400:1) could possibly be an important factor for the low JE infection rate in children in the district.
在坦贾武尔区,日本脑炎(JE)的发病率非常低,该地区没有疫情。在5至12岁的儿童中,1991 - 92年和1992 - 93年连续两个传播季节的JE感染率分别为1.8%和5.1%。高牛猪比例(400:1)可能是该地区儿童JE感染率低的一个重要因素。
