Abstract
[Objective]To understand the epidemic features of measles in Fengtai so as to provide scientific evidences for measles control.[Methods]Used the descriptive epidemiology to analyze the data of the measles cases in Fengtai.[Results]During the 5 years,2 106 cases of measles were reported in the entire region.The average annual rate was 26.48/100 000.The incidence in 0 year group was 585.95/100 000,which was 25.42 times for other age groups;incidence in 20-30 years group was 48.34/100 000,which was 2.10 times for other age groups;incidence in scattered children was 33.19%,which was 10.78% of total incidence.[Conclusion]The incidence of measles has a downward trend in Fengtai in the latest 5 years.However,incidence in population with foreign census register increase,the highest is in scattered children,which suggests strengthen measles immunization in the population.Otherwise,it should strengthen measles immunization,reduce the incidence of measles,and suggest recovering measles immunization in students on the senior three grade to reduce the incidence peak of measles in 20-30 years group.
