国内英语资讯:Xi Focus: Xi stresses strong public health system to safeguard peoples health

Party committees and governments at all levels were asked to put in place public health working mechanisms for the regular study and deployment of epidemic prevention and containment.

Following the principle that nothing matters more than the people's lives, China has uNPRecedentedly mobilized resources across the country to treat and rescue COVID-19 patients on a large scale, said Xi.

"From newborns to centenarians, we never leave out any infected person and never give up on any patient. We make sure that no one has to worry about treatment expenses," Xi pointed out.

Xi urged drawing on the experience accumulated in fighting COVID-19 and making innovations in carrying out public health campaigns, stressing the transformation from environmental sanitation to comprehensive society-wide health management.

Party committees and governments at all levels should put public health work on their priority list and explore more effective ways for mobilization, Xi said.

Noting that the combination of the traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) and Western medicine is one of the major characteristics of China's COVID-19 response, Xi urged improving the emergency response and treatment capabilities of TCM hospitals and strengthening the training of TCM professionals to build a national high-caliber TCM professional team for epidemic prevention and treatment.

Xi stressed the need to advance the revision of laws including the Law on the Prevention and Control of Infectious Diseases to improve the response measures against major emerging infectious diseases and sudden outbreaks.
