Methods An internet based expert counsel was conducted to analyze the incidence data of public health emergencies reported both at home and abroad and the surveillance data of priority communicable diseases in China reported through different channels, and the experts in all provincial centers for disease control and prevention attended this conference through video terminal.
Results Generally speaking, it is predicted that the incidence of public health emergencies would be higher in November than in October. At present, the global coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic is still ongoing out of control. The risk of imported or secondary COVID-19 would continue to exist in China, but it would be controllable. The activity of seasonal influenza would increase from late November. In November, the incidence of non-occupational carbon monoxide poisoning would increase due to coal-firing heating as the approaching of winter.
