人口迁移在疾病传播中发挥着关键作用,因为它引发了急性疾病的暴发,改变了特定地区传染病的流行情况,并改变了因先前感染而导致的慢性病的面貌。这篇文章侧重于北美最近的人口变化,这些变化促进了新的微生物威胁的引入和传播,移民人口在改变特定传染病的人口结构方面所起的作用,以及临床医生和公共卫生官员在应对这些感染带来的挑战方面的潜在反应。这篇文章的重点是进入北美的移民和移民人口;本期的另一篇文章讨论了旅行者在新出现的传染病中的作用。
Population migration plays a critical role in the spread of disease by initiating outbreaks of acute diseases, changing the prevalence of infectious diseases at a given location, and changing the face of chronic disease resulting from previous infection. This article focuses on the recent demographic changes in North America that have facilitated the introduction and spread of new microbial threats, the role migrant populations play in changing the demographics of specific infectious diseases, and the potential responses of clinicians and public health officials in addressing the challenges posed by these infections. The emphasis of the article is on immigrant and migrant populations entering North America; the role of travelers in emerging infectious diseases is addressed in another article in this issue.
