Schistosomiasis Control Effect of the Water Conservancy and Schistosomiasis Prevention Project in the Hanbei River Basin of Hubei Province
Taking water conservancy and schistosomiasis prevention project in the Hanbei River Basin of Hubei province as the research object,we analyzed the changes of Oncomelania hupensis distribution and schistosomiasis situation before and after the implementation of two projects mainly focusing on embankment body reinforcement,and raising or lowering the beach.The results show that snail breeding area has effectively reduced after the implementation of the two projects,and the snail-infested area decreased by 100%and 89.8%in the two project areas,respectively.The infection rate of schistosomiasis among people in the two project areas significantly decreased by 100%,which indicates that water conservancy and schistosomiasis prevention project is highly effective in snail control and disease prevention,and brings remarkable social and economic benefits.The research results provide practical reference for further improving the governance level of rivers and lakes with Oncomelania hupensis habitats in the Yangtze River Basin,and is of great significance to support the implementation of the Healthy China strategy and the high-quality development of the Yangtze River Economic Belt.
