Abstract

Abstract

Objective To understand the epidemic situation and epidemic characteristics of plague among animals in the focus of Meriones unguiculatus in Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region, so as to provide scientific basis for the prevention and control of plague in Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region. Methods The monitoring data of plague in Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region from 2006 to 2020 were collected and sorted out. Using Excel 2010 software, data on hosts, vectors, pathogens, and serology were entered separately, and descriptive epidemiological methods were used for statistical analysis based on different age and species composition. Results The 15 years included in the analysis was divided into three time periods with a 5-year interval. The mice density and the positive rate of plague among animals showed a trend of increasing first and then decreasing in each time period, showing a certain periodicity. The average mice density was 2.91 rats/hm², the total capture rate of nocturnal rodents was 3.16%, the flea-infected rate was 27.61%, and the average flea index was 0.83 in the focus of Meriones unguiculatus. Plague bacilli was isolated in 13 years of the 15 years included in the study; the average positive rate for 15 years was 0.33%, and the positive rate of indirect hemagglutination test was 0.49%. Conclusions The results of this study show that the plague among animals in epidemic focus of Meriones unguiculatus is continuously active, so it is necessary to do good jobs in monitoring and early warning of mice density and epidemic situation among animals, reducing the occurrence and epidemic risk of plague of animals.
