Abstract

Leprosy is an ancient disease that is uncommon in many developed countries now but a century ago it was a common disease. In India, leprosy is mentioned in old Pali and Sanskrit literature. However, due to the development of scientific methods and technologies, leprosy remains a problem in a few countries including India. The government is committed to its eradication and therefore, has developed the National Strategic Plan (NSP) and Roadmap for zero transmission of leprosy. The country has a huge machinery of human resource development which is recognised by the Central Leprosy Division to be involved in various activities of the plan. This article presents the roles that public health and community medicine institutions can play in NSP to achieve zero leprosy transmission. How to cite this article:Kishore J, Paul B, Roy R.

医学院参与实施2023-27年国家消灭麻风病战略计划:路线图
麻风病是一种古老的疾病,现在在许多发达国家并不常见,但一个世纪前它是一种常见病。在印度,古巴利文和梵文文献中提到了麻风病。然而,由于科学方法和技术的发展,麻风病在包括印度在内的少数国家仍然是一个问题。政府致力于消灭麻风病,因此制定了麻风病零传播的国家战略计划和路线图。该国拥有庞大的人力资源开发机构,中央麻风病司承认该机构参与了该计划的各项活动。本文介绍了公共卫生和社区医疗机构在NSP中可以发挥的作用,以实现麻风零传播。Kishore J, Paul B, Roy R.医学院参与实施2023-27年国家消灭麻风病战略计划:路线图。流行病学杂志,2009;8(2):4-6。DOI: https://doi.org/10.24321/2455.7048.202307
