- This study analyzed data from 2016 to 2019 to understand the characteristics of imported infections and evaluate the effectiveness of health screenings at Fuzhou Changle International Airport in detecting these infections.
- A total of 559 travel-related infections were reported, with a high percentage (94.3%) being imported, mainly affecting males aged 20-49 and peaking during specific months.
- The findings highlight the limitations of airport health screening, which identified only 23.7% of infections, pointing to the need for improved public health measures such as surveillance, vaccination, and international cooperation to manage imported diseases effectively.
