The article presents a method for assessing the risk of an unfavorable epidemic situation for a parasitic disease using the example of enterobiasis in the constituent entities of the Russian Federation and a forecast for 2020. The method is based on a point assessment of internal risks developed on the basis of the document «Rapid assessment of events posing an immediate threat to public health. WHO-2012». All constituent entities of the Russian Federation were assessed and divided into three categories: high, medium and low risk of an unfavorable epidemic situation for enterobiasis. According to the results of the assessment, the «risk areas» in 2020 are Moscow, St. Petersburg, Sevastopol, the Republic of Tatarstan, Sverdlovsk Oblast, Khanty-Mansi Autonomous Okrug, Arkhangelsk Oblast, Kemerovo Oblast, Moscow Oblast, Omsk Oblast, Chelyabinsk Oblast. In the Republic of Sakha (Yakutia) and the Republic of Altai, a high prevalence of the population was revealed with low indicators of other criteria, which may indicate an insufficient epidemiological surveillance of enterobiasis, or about unaccounted or unknown risk factors for the disease.
