title: [Optimization of anthrax vaccination on the basis of rational classification of populated sites].
abstract: The improved epidemiological situation requires the proper revision of the tactics used in vaccinating the population against anthrax. The important task lies in the optimization of the immunoprophylaxis of the rural population in accordance with the epizootologic situation in a given locality. To ensure correct orientation in choosing the groups of population to be vaccinated a rational classification of inhabited localities is proposed: they are classified as anthrax-free and anthrax-affected, and the latter fall into manifest, conditionally manifest, nonmanifest and unclassified. The use of the cartographic method based on this classification is recommended. The proposed vaccination tactics will allow to reduce the number of persons covered by immunoprophylaxis by 70-75%, making this coverage more exact, and to improve the epidemiological effectiveness of vaccination.
