Abstract

Andaman & Nicobar Islands (Indian Territory) are situated in the Bay of Bengal and endemic for malaria with perennial transmission. Anopheles sundaicus which prefers to breed in brackish water, is known as the main vector for malaria and maintains high endemicity of malaria. Tsunami waves entered the inhabited coastal areas, caused heavy devastation and left large areas inundated causing exceptionally high breeding sources for vector mosquitoes of malaria. The disaster created a new habitat suitable for the proliferation of malaria and other disease-carrying mosquitoes besides making thousands of people homeless. They were living in temporary open shelters, getting more exposed to mosquito bites. The population already had existing high parasite load. Hence, there was a real threat of malaria outbreak in the area. However, malaria was effectively controlled due to strategic planning and timely remedial measures. Malaria situation was monitored closely and epidemiological data of three subsequent years from 2005 to 2007 after tsunami were analysed and compared with pre-tsunami malaria data from 1986 to 2004. In this paper, effect of tsunami on malaria profile in these islands has been discussed along with action taken for its control.

摘要

安达曼和尼科巴群岛(印度领土)位于孟加拉湾,疟疾常年流行。偏好于在微咸水中繁殖的桑氏按蚊,被认为是疟疾的主要传播媒介,并维持着疟疾的高流行率。海啸波进入有人居住的沿海地区,造成了严重破坏,大片地区被淹没,为疟疾传播媒介蚊子创造了异常多的滋生地。这场灾难除了使数千人无家可归外,还创造了一个适合疟疾和其他携带疾病蚊子繁殖的新栖息地。他们住在临时的露天避难所里,更容易受到蚊子叮咬。当地人口已经有很高的寄生虫负荷。因此,该地区存在疟疾爆发的实际威胁。然而,由于战略规划和及时的补救措施,疟疾得到了有效控制。对海啸后2005年至2007年连续三年的疟疾情况进行了密切监测,并对相关流行病学数据进行了分析,并与1986年至2004年海啸前的疟疾数据进行了比较。本文讨论了海啸对这些岛屿疟疾情况的影响以及为控制疟疾所采取的行动。
