It is challenging to control this disease in this environment, and it would be useful to identify clusters of infection and transmission, as well as their distributions during recent years. Therefore, this study aimed to analyze the spatial distribution of schistosomiasis in Hubei, in order to facilitate the effective control and elimination of this disease %K Spatial analysis %K Schistosoma japonicum %K Schistosomiasis %K Hubei province %U https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5050672/
