Malaria is one of the important public health problems concerned by the world, and it is widely prevalent all over the world. According to the statistics of the World Health Organization, there are still 92 countries and regions with high and moderate epidemics, with an annual incidence of 654.38+0.5 billion, and more than 2 million people have died of malaria. Before the liberation of China, malaria was prevalent year after year, especially in the south, which caused a large number of labor losses due to the rampant epidemic; Because there was no effective drug treatment at that time, the mortality rate of malaria was also high. After liberation, malaria prevention and control institutions have been established all over the country, and malaria prevention and control and scientific research have been carried out extensively, and the incidence of malaria has dropped significantly. In recent years, affected by natural and human factors, the incidence of malaria in some areas is especially on the rise. It is of great significance to strengthen malaria prevention and control and prevent its resurgence. 20 15 in may, the 60th world health assembly passed a resolution, and decided that from 20 15, April 25th of each year or one or more days decided by individual member countries will be designated as World Malaria Day. According to the actual situation, China decided to designate April 26th as National Malaria Day.
April 25th is World Malaria Control Day.
In May 2007, the 60th session of the World Health Assembly established World Malaria Day to promote global malaria control. April 25th, 2008 is the first World Malaria Day. According to the report of the World Health Organization, about 40% of the global population is threatened by masochism. Every year, 350-500 million people are infected with malaria,1.654,380,000 people die of malaria. 3000 children die of malaria every day. The incidence is mainly concentrated in the old, small, marginal and poor areas with relatively backward economy and inconvenient transportation. Malaria is still one of the most serious threats to public health for about half the people in the world.
The slogan of malaria eradication:
Eliminate malaria and enjoy health.
Use mosquito nets to stay away from malaria.
Prevent malaria and ensure health.
Take medicine throughout the course to eradicate malaria.
Eliminate malaria and build harmony.
Eliminating the Harm of Malaria and Promoting Harmonious Development
A mosquito net, a care, stay away from malaria.
What is the theme of World Malaria Day in 2022? The theme of World Malaria Day in 2022 is "
Using innovation to reduce malaria burden and save lives
"。 WHO calls for investment and innovation in order to find new vector control methods, diagnostic reagents, antimalarial drugs and other tools, thus accelerating the progress of malaria control.
From 2000 to 20 15, steady progress has been made in reducing the global malaria burden, but in recent years, the progress has slowed down or stagnated, especially in high-burden countries in sub-Saharan Africa. Urgent and concerted action is needed to put the world back on track and achieve the 2030 goal of the WHO Global Malaria Strategy.
Purpose of World Malaria Control Day
In May 2007, the 60th session of the World Health Assembly established World Malaria Day to promote global malaria control. April 25th, 2008 is the first World Malaria Day. According to the report of the World Health Organization, about 40% of the global population is threatened by masochism. Every year, 350-500 million people are infected with malaria,1.654,380,000 people die of malaria. 3000 children die of malaria every day. The incidence is mainly concentrated in the old, small, marginal and poor areas with relatively backward economy and inconvenient transportation. Malaria is still one of the most serious threats to public health for about half the people in the world.
What are the symptoms of malaria?
People infected with malaria usually have fever, chills and flu-like symptoms at first. If left untreated, malaria can lead to serious complications and even fatal in some cases. Symptoms of malaria appear 7 days or more after infection, usually 10- 15 days after being bitten by infected mosquitoes.
What should I do if I get sick?
Early diagnosis and correct treatment can save lives. It is very important to start treatment as soon as possible after malaria infection. If you have been to malaria endemic areas, please inform your health care provider that you should be tested for malaria infection. Suspected cases of clinical malaria should be detected by microscope or rapid diagnostic reagent in a reliable diagnostic center.
National Malaria Day is called Malaria Publicity Day, that is, April 26th every year. Malaria is one of the most serious and common infectious diseases in the world, and China is one of the countries where malaria is prevalent. Malaria refers to the disease of periodic chills, fever and sweating after being bitten by Anopheles with plasmodium. If the diagnosis and treatment is delayed, the condition will get worse. Therefore, it is very important to publicize malaria.
The slogan of malaria eradication:
Eliminate malaria and enjoy health.
Use mosquito nets to stay away from malaria.
Prevent malaria and ensure health.
Take medicine throughout the course to eradicate malaria.
Eliminate malaria and build harmony.
Eliminating the Harm of Malaria and Promoting Harmonious Development
A mosquito net, a care, stay away from malaria.
What was promoted on Malaria Awareness Day?
First, the main clinical manifestations of malaria patients:
Periodic chills, fever, sweating and other symptoms, such as once every other day or once every three days, can cause splenomegaly and anemia if the onset time is long. If infected with falciparum malaria and treated in time, high fever and coma may occur, and severe cases may die of brain edema and respiratory failure.
Second, the life history of plasmodium:
Plasmodium takes human as the intermediate host and female Anopheles as the final host, which breeds in the stomach cavity of mosquitoes. Then, when female Anopheles with sporozoites (a form of plasmodium) sucks human blood, it enters the human body with saliva and invades liver cells with blood. If plasmodium exists in the form of trophozoite when it breeds in human body, it has strong resistance to the outside world, which is also the reason why it may recur after being infected by plasmodium.
Third, how to prevent malaria?
1. Control the source of infection: report the epidemic situation in time and eliminate malaria patients and plasmodium patients.
2. Cut off the route of transmission: mainly to eliminate Anopheles mosquitoes and prevent them from being bitten by Anopheles mosquitoes. Clear the breeding ground of Anopheles larvae and use insecticidal drugs. Personal protection can use mosquito repellent or mosquito nets, screen doors, screens and other anti-mosquito measures to avoid being bitten by mosquitoes.
3. At present, due to the diversity of plasmodium antigens, no malaria vaccine has been developed. At present, the common preventive measure is to use chemical drugs.
Fourth, the treatment of malaria:
Basic treatment includes:
① Bed rest;
② Supplementing water and its application, giving liquid or semi-liquid food due to poor appetite;
3 pay attention to keep warm; Dry the sweat with a towel in time and replace sweaty clothes and quilts; Physical cooling is used for high fever, and drug cooling can be used for patients with high fever who are unbearable because of high fever; People with dangerous fever should closely observe the condition, observe the changes of vital signs and do basic nursing;
(4) isolation. The syringes used by patients should be cleaned and disinfected.
Therapeutic drugs include chloroquine, artemisinin, aminophenol quinoline hydrochloride, piperaquine, piperaquine phosphate, quinine sulfate and primary aminoquinoline phosphate. Different malaria has different treatments. Consult a doctor for specific methods.
Malaria publicity day, including the infection route, symptoms, self-protection and treatment of malaria. If you are infected with malaria, please go to health centers, county hospitals or centers for disease control and prevention for treatment in time. Through the above publicity, learn the basic knowledge of self-protection and publicize it to people around you to make yourself healthy.
