Title: Analysis on Immunization Coverage Rate of Measles Vaccine and Measles Incidence in Gaozhou
Abstract: Objective To probe into the relationship between immunization coverage rate of measles vaccine and the measles incidence,to provide scientific evidence for measles control further. Methods We got the measles coverage rate and measles incidence by routine coverage rate reporting system and notifiable disease reporting system,and analized them statisticaly. Results After the measles vaccination had been introduced into EPI,the measles incidence of Gaozhou come down from 300per100000 to 50per100000,the dropping down range is 83.3 percent.And with the coverage rate of measles vaccine going up the measles incidence appeared downtrend increasingly.The measles incidence dropping off range is much greater than the going up range of the coverage rate,since the greatest dropping off range is 90.29percent,the going up range is only about 2 percent.Measles incidence was negatively correlated with the coverage rate of measles vaccine and there was statistic significance. (r=0.9010,p0.01) Conclusion As the coverage rate of measles vaccine promoting ,the measles incidence decreased year by year,and because of the effect of immunity protective screen it can achieve the goal of measles control completely or elinmination of measles without have 100 percent of coverage rate of measles vaccine.
