摘　　要：多年来人们就注意到贫穷与疾病有关,即在贫穷落后的国家或地区传染病发病率高。在移民、流动人口等弱势人群中患病率高,农村传染病发病率高于城区。寄生虫病、病毒性疾病、细菌性疾病也是贫穷病,主要流行于发展中国家,与发展中国家缺乏卫生设施、经济落后、住房简陋、收入和受教育程度低、环境卫生差等条件密切相关。贫病相连,因病致贫、返贫是发展中国家面临的严峻挑战。揭示贫穷与疾病的关系有助于职能部门采取有效对策来控制疾病和消除贫困。It has, for years, been noticed that poverty is associated with diseases, that is the incidence of intections diseases is high in poor and underdeveloped countries and regions. There are also the phenomena that the prevalence of infectious diseases is high in immigrants, mobile populations and other vulnerable groups, the incidence of disease is also high ill rural areas that of urban ones. Parasitic diseases, bacterial and viral diseases are also called poverty diseases as they are mainly prevalent in developing countries with insufficient health itffrastructure, backward cuhure, education, underdeveloped economy and health knowledge and perception of self protection as well. Poverty due to diseases is the severe challenge to developing countries. Thus to disclose the relationship between poverty and diseases would be helpful for the departments concerned to take effective countermeasures for eliminating poverty and controlling diseases.
