What is already known about this topic?: According to the National Brucellosis Prevention and Control Plan (2016-2020) (NBPCP), the awareness rate of high-risk populations in brucellosis-endemic areas should reach 90% by 2020. But the updated results have not been reported.
What is added by this report?: This report determined the awareness rate of brucellosis (17.74%), utilization of personal protective equipment (PPE) (20.13%), and their relationship with seroprevalence, which provides evidence for the effectiveness of the implementation of NBPCP.
What are the implications for public health practice?: The results suggest that health education should be conducted for high-risk populations to improve their brucellosis and protection knowledge.
