The COVID-19 pandemic has caused an evolving public health crisis and challenged the medical system globally, especially in the rural-stricken regions. There is concern about the spread of coronavirus in regions with lower education level, weaker health systems and underdeveloped economy. The risk of viral transmission in HD center is elevated because of the densely-populated and high mobility in an enclosed environment.This paper demonstrated the main experiences and strategies of preventing secondary COVID-19 transmission in a HD center from a poverty-stricken rural region in China. Data of subjects including 17 medical workers and 249 patients were collected from the HD center in Huangchuan County Peoples Hospital from February to April 2020. It is the first paper to provide the experiences and strategies about preventing COVID-19 secondary transmission in HD center for poverty-stricken rural region.
