East Route of South-to-North Water Diversion Project in China: Impact of Water Diversion Project on Schistosomiasis Transmission

摘要

The water flow and constructions are un-valuable for spread of Oncomelania snails from the south to north in the water diversion of the eastern route project. Therefore, the risk of schistosomiasis transmission is not increased following the project construction. The potential risk of transmission of Oncomelania snails may exist in southern part of 33?5' north latitude in Jiangsu Province, such as Lixia River basin, Jinbao River and Hongze Lake.
