Sumario:WHAT IS ALREADY KNOWN ABOUT THIS TOPIC? According to the National Brucellosis Prevention and Control Plan (2016–2020) (NBPCP), the awareness rate of high-risk populations in brucellosis-endemic areas should reach 90% by 2020. But the updated results have not been reported. WHAT IS ADDED BY THIS REPORT? This report determined the awareness rate of brucellosis (17.74%), utilization of personal protective equipment (PPE) (20.13%), and their relationship with seroprevalence, which provides evidence for the effectiveness of the implementation of NBPCP. WHAT ARE THE IMPLICATIONS FOR PUBLIC HEALTH PRACTICE? The results suggest that health education should be conducted for high-risk populations to improve their brucellosis and protection knowledge.
