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 July 2021.
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 Generally speaking, it is predicted that the incidence of public health emergencies would be lower in July than June. The risk of imported cases and secondary infections of COVID-19 would continue to exist, but would be controllable. It is the high incidence season of cholera. Sporadic cases of cholera might still occur and the possibility of cluster and outbreak cannot be ruled out. Heat stroke at high temperature would be at high-incidence season. The potential flood-stricken areas predicted by the meteorological department need to pay attention to the risks of water-borne, food-borne and vector-borne diseases that may increase after the disaster.
Conclusion Special attention should be paid to COVID-19, and general attention should be paid to cholera, heat stroke at high temperature and natural disaster.
