Abstract
Public health emergencies severely affect people’s lives and health, national security, social stability, and economic development. Against the background of coronavirus disease 2019 pandemic, this study analyzes the current status of China’s public health emergency prevention and control system from the aspects of its six major systems: monitoring, early warning, and evaluation; diagnosis and treatment; basic scientific research; personnel training; material, equipment, and industry support; and social mobilization and coordinated action. We conclude that strengthening system construction is a realistic demand of China in the new development stage. China’s public health system still faces challenges regarding institutional positioning, capacity building, hardware investment, and management system. Therefore, we propose that China should establish a national overall coordination and emergency command mechanism, strengthen clinical, science, education, and industrial support capacity, and further promote international cooperation.
