Hemorrhagic Fever with Renal Syndrome in Tatarstan – Epidemiological Zoning

The aim of the work was to assess the epidemic situation on hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome (HFRS) in the Republic of Tatarstan and to divide the republic’s territory into zones according to the degree of potential risk of infection of the population. Materials and methods. The analysis used archival data on HFRS incidence in the Republic of Tatarstan since the onset of HFRS registration in 1959 until 2024, state statistical reporting form No. 2 “Information on infectious and parasitic diseases” for each year of the period 2015–2024, and the results of epizootiological (for 2014–2024) and serological (for 2012–2024) monitoring. Results and discussion. The work presents the results of the epidemiological analysis of the epidemic situation on HFRS in the Republic of Tatarstan for the purpose of epidemiological zoning of municipal districts according to the degree of potential risk of HFRS infection. The obtained results of the analysis allow for compiling a cartogram of the republic, identifying regions with different levels of epidemic risk of infection of the population. The obtained materials can be used to predict the epidemic situation and to carry out early preventive measures aimed at reducing the incidence among the population.
