description | What is already known about this topic? Soil-transmitted helminthiasis (STH) is distributed widely in China and a large number of the population is afflicted. However, trends of STH infections are decreasing. What is added by this report? The most recent data indicates that the overall prevalence of STH was 1.29% in 2018 in China, which was based on the national sentinel surveillance and demonstrates a continuous decline pattern. What are the implications for public health practice? Considering the current prevalence in China and various endemic statuses in different regions, precision control measures should be implemented for the control and elimination of STH in China. |
