Abstract:
Objective To assess the risk of public health emergencies, both the indigenous ones and the imported ones, which might occur in the mainland of China in January 2022.
Methods An internet based expert counsel was conducted to analyze the surveillance data of public health emergencies and priority communicable diseases in China reported through different channels, and the experts in all provincial centers for disease control and prevention attended this video conference.
Results It is expected that public health emergency events in January 2022 would be slightly lower than in December 2021. The high risk of COVID-19 indigenous transmission caused by foreign importation maintains, and the pressure of epidemic prevention and control will be even greater during Spring Festival rush and Winter Olympic Games. Local governments need to strengthen epidemic prevention and control in accordance with national requirements. Sporadic human cases of avian influenza may continue to be detected. The recent peak of influenza activity in northern and southern provinces will continue, and it is expected to decrease by the end of January. Hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome has entered its peak period in winter. According to the trend of non-occupational carbon monoxide poisoning reports in previous years, the high incidence is expected to continue in January.
Conclusion Special attention should be paid to COVID-19. General attentions should be paid to human infection with avian influenza, seasonal influenza, hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome and non-occupational carbon monoxide poisoning.
