INFECTIOUS MORBIDITY IN CHILDREN AND ADOLESCENTS AND THE SANITARY-AND-EPIDEMIOLOGICAL WELLBEING OF EDuCATIONAL ESTABLISHMENTS
Children’s Health Research Center, Russian Academy of Medical Sciences, 2/62, Lomonosovsky Prosp., Moscow 119991 There are no great differences in infectious morbidity rates among children aged 0-14 years in the administrative boroughs of Moscow. In the past 5 years, Moscow has shown an increase in the share of first-level sanitary-and epidemiological well-being educational establishments from 41.8 to 51.0% and a reduction in the number of Group II establishments from 55.9 to 48.0% (p < 0.001). The number of third-level sanitary-and epidemiological well-being educational establishments also decreases slightly from 2.3 to 1.0%. The number of the institutions where group infectious diseases are detected is much more than that of third-level sanitary-and epidemiological well-being educational establishments. This is indicative of the inadequate use of the results of registration of childhood infectious morbidity when the levels of the sanitary-and epidemiological well-being of educational establishments are determined.
