Brucellosis is a neglected zoonosis, which not only endangers health of the people but also affects the development of animal husbandry, tourism and international trade as well as food safety. In the past two decades, great progress has been achieved in the prevention and control of both human and animal brucellosis, however, tremendous challenges still exists in the control and eradication of brucellosis, especially in the developing countries. In recent years, along with the increase of livestock breeding and animal or related product trade, human contacts with livestock has increased, resulting in the expansion of brucellosis endemic areas. In China, the brucellosis endemic areas are mainly distributed in Inner Mongolia and adjacent provinces, which might be explained by a lot of reasons, such as the development of animal husbandry, emerging and re-emerging of brucellosis endemic area and the movement of infection sources and degree of paid-attention. This paper summarizes the current status and progress in brucellosis prevention/control and surveillance in China and puts forward suggestions for the future improvement.
布鲁氏菌病是一种被忽视的人畜共患病，不仅危害人类健康，还影响畜牧业、旅游业和国际贸易的发展以及食品安全。在过去二十年中，人类和动物布鲁氏菌病的防控工作取得了巨大进展，然而，在布鲁氏菌病的控制和根除方面仍存在巨大挑战，特别是在发展中国家。近年来，随着牲畜养殖和动物或相关产品贸易的增加，人类与牲畜的接触增多，导致布鲁氏菌病流行地区扩大。在中国，布鲁氏菌病流行地区主要分布在内蒙古及周边省份，其原因可能是多方面的，如畜牧业的发展、布鲁氏菌病流行地区的出现和再现、传染源的移动以及重视程度等。本文总结了中国布鲁氏菌病防控和监测的现状与进展，并提出了未来改进的建议。
