Results From 2021 to 2023,a total of 3 595 cases of foodborne diseases were reported,with 1 555 cases of males and 2 040 cases of females,and the male-to-female ratio was 0.76 ∶ 1. In the distribution of age,the group of <10 years old had the highest proportion,with 27.93%. In the distribution of occupation,migrant workers had the highest proportion,accounting for 18.13%.
