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 July 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 the number of public health emergencies reported in July 2022 may decrease slightly from June, and infectious disease events will still be the main event. The COVID-19 epidemic across the country shows a trend of low-level fluctuations. There are still small fluctuations in some regions and new provinces with new epidemics. At present, the situation of epidemic prevention and control is still severe and complex, and it is still facing the risk of local transmission caused by the spread and import of local epidemic. It is necessary to efficiently coordinate epidemic prevention and control and economic and social development in accordance with the overall national requirements. At present, cholera is easy to spread, and the probability of cholera infection is expected to increase in July. The recent level of influenza activity in southern China has far exceeded the level of the same period since 2019. With subtype A (H3N2) as the dominant epidemic strain, the influenza pandemic may gradually decline after the first ten days of July. The high incidence period of heat stroke and death is from July to August every year, and it is expected to maintain a high level in July.
Conclusion Special attention should be paid to COVID-19. General attentions should be paid to Cholera, flu and heat stroke.
