Clonorchiasis is one of the food-borne parasitic diseases. Adult parasites live in the human liver and gallbladder tube system, causing serious complications, such as gallstones, cholecystitis and cholangitis, and even bile duct cancer. The disease is very popular in our country, and the population infection rate is high. It is an important public health problem. Guangdong Province is the earliest province being found of clonorchiasis and with serious epidemic. In the second national human parasitic diseases distribution survey, the results showed that the average infection rate of in the epidemic areas in Guangdong was 16.42%. It is estimated that the population of infection is over 6 million. The prevention and control of clonorchiasis in China is still in the initial stage currently and we face many challenges such as unclear epidemic characteristics and transmission mode, and lack of long-term prevention and control mechanism. This article introduces the epidemic situation of clonorchiasis and prevention and control strategies and measures in Guangdong.
华支睾吸虫病是食源性寄生虫病之一。成虫寄生于人体肝脏和胆管系统，可引发严重并发症，如胆结石、胆囊炎和胆管炎，甚至胆管癌。该病在我国流行广泛，人群感染率高，是一个重要的公共卫生问题。广东省是我国最早发现华支睾吸虫病且流行严重的省份。在第二次全国人体寄生虫病分布调查中，结果显示广东省流行区平均感染率为16.42%。估计感染人群超过600万。目前我国华支睾吸虫病防控仍处于初期阶段，面临着流行特征和传播方式不明、缺乏长期防控机制等诸多挑战。本文介绍了广东省华支睾吸虫病的流行情况及防控策略与措施。
