Abstract
Objective. To analyze the incidence of Lyme disease (LD) in the region of Caucasian Mineralnye Vody (CMV), Stavropol Territory, in 2015-2019. Materials and methods. The authors used information from 105 schedules for epidemiological survey of the focus of an infectious disease (Form No. 357/y), provided by the Directorate for the Stavropol Territory, Russian Federal Service for Supervision of Consumer Rights Protection and Human Well-Being. Results. LD cases were registered in all CMV areas, but most patients were detected in Kislovodsk. The peak incidence occurred in May-July. Registration of patients in autumn-winter may be associated with the possible awakening of ticks during thaw periods. The study risk group is persons who spend a lot of time on nature biotopes and homestead lands. Most patients’ late access to medical care indicates a lack of knowledge about tick-borne diseases and their prevention methods. Conclusion. The epidemic situation of LD remained tense in CMV in 2015-2019. The activity of natural foci of LD creates a constant risk for the disease both among the local population and persons who come for spa treatment. In this connection, it is necessary to pay special attention to the evidence-based planning of preventive measures using modern information (including GlS) technologies and timely implementation of acaricide measures.
