Rapid air travel has increased the potential for international transmission of infectious diseases. Important aspects of this problem include the transmission of foodborne and waterborne illnesses, the translocation of insect vectors, the rapid transport of individuals with incubating illnesses, the direct transmission of diseases inside aircraft and the transmission of zoonoses through animal transport. Infectious outbreaks on aircraft and in the vicinity of airports have included influenza, staphylococcal gastroenteritis, salmonellosis, cholera and malaria.
便捷的航空旅行增加了传染病国际传播的可能性。这一问题的重要方面包括食源性和水源性疾病的传播、昆虫媒介的迁移、潜伏期患者的快速运输、飞机内疾病的直接传播以及通过动物运输传播人畜共患病。飞机上及机场附近发生的传染病爆发包括流感、葡萄球菌性肠胃炎、沙门氏菌病、霍乱和疟疾。
