title: [The current status of the Turgai focus of opisthorchiasis].
abstract: Complex investigations in the Turgai opisthorchiasis focus stated that it is characterized by weak intensity of the epidemic process, as evidenced by stable low morbidity index (5.5%) and invasion intensity of population, the average number being 4.968). The fact is mainly due to the natives' daily habit to use fish that is heat-treated. Meanwhile, the risk infection in the focus is rather great, for there is considerable fish invasion in the Turgai River with Opisthorchis larvae and 40% of cats are infected with Opisthorchis.
