ALVEOCOCCUS MULTILOCULARIS (LEUCKART, 1858; ABULADSE, 1960) PREVALENCE, SOURCES AND FACTORS OF PATHOGEN TRANSMISSION IN THE ARCTIC ZONE OF YAKUTIA

This article presents data on the study of the ecological and epizootic situation of the helminth Alveococcus multilocularis, which is particularly dangerous for humans and animals. The main sources and factors of transmission of Alveococcus in susceptible animals and the regularity of the circulation of pathogens in natural foci in the Arctic are determined. According to the results of research, they have a rather dangerous epizootic potential and at any time it is possible to aggravate the epizootic situation. Therefore, the resumption of studies in natural foci of alveolar Echinococcosis is highly relevant, therefore, a study taking into account natural-climatic conditions and socio-economic change in Yakutia and features of distribution Alveococcus multilocularis, it is also necessary to reduce infection in domestic animals and humans.
