新型冠状病毒肺炎疫情(简称疫情)的暴发,给世界各国人民的生命安全和身体健康带来巨大威胁。在应对疫情的同时,不能忽视新型冠状病毒与寄生虫共感染对中低收入国家人群的威胁。被忽视的热带寄生虫病主要流行于包括“一带一路”沿线国家/地区和非洲大陆在内的热带和亚热带地区,因此人体寄生虫学课程与来华医学留学生日后的医疗卫生工作关系密切。本文分析了我国医学留学生人体寄生虫学课程教学的现状和教学中存在的问题,并提出了疫情下在人体寄生虫学教学中适当增加医学留学生生源国的重要寄生虫病、新型冠状病毒与疟原虫或蠕虫共感染及相互作用的教学内容,在医学留学生人体寄生虫学教学中融入“全健康”(One Health)的理念,加强医学留学生人体寄生虫学线上和线下教学资源建设等方面的思考和建议。
The outbreak of COVID-19 is a serious challenge to health of people all over the world and theco-infections of 2019-nCoV with parasites of people in low- and middle-income countries cannot be ignored. Since parasitic diseases are mainly prevalent in tropical and subtropical areas including countries/regions along the “Belt and Road” and African continent, human parasitology course is closely related to training of international medical students especially those from developing countries. This article analyzes the current situation and existed weakness of human parasitology teaching for international medical students in China and proposes specific strategy and suggestion. The attention is paid to teachingco-infectionsof parasites and other pathogens like 2019-nCoV where the graduates will provide healthcare service after returning back.The examples are the co-infections of 2019-nCoV and plasmodium parasites or helminthes. This strategy is aiming for to integrating the concept of “One Health” into human parasitology teaching for international medical students, and to expand resources for online and offline teaching resources of human parasitology for international medical students during the COVID-19 pandemic.
