Infectious disease is the most ancient and common human diseases. In China and BRI countries, there are a variety of infectious diseases. People and animals on the ancient Silk Road have been threatened and tortured by infectious diseases. With the development of the RBI, we are faced with the risk of the spread of various infectious diseases. According on the WHO report, the top 5 of the most serious infectious diseases were tuberculosis，pertussis，tetanus，leprosy and AIDS. Except the central and eastern Europe countries, the standardized disability adjusted life years(DALYs)of BRI counties is higher than China. In addition, mosquito is a vector of many infectious diseases.It is one of important public health problem for controlling mosquito. After the BRI, the risk of imported infectious diseases is increasing, some mosquito-borne diseases are more risky(eg. Malaria). It’s necessary to strengthen control of infectious diseases while improving international exchanges and co-operation with B&R countries. Of course, China’s formula for success in parasitic and neglected tropical disease control might translate to BRI countries.
