Abstract

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.<br />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.<br />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.<br />Competing Interests: Conflicts of interest: The authors who have taken part in this study declared that they did not have any other potential conflicts of interest.<br /> (Copyright and License information: Editorial Office of CCDCW, Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention 2021.)
