BEIJING, Aug. 12 (Xinhua) — China has released a set of (trial) rules on the management of early warning of infectious disease outbreaks, aiming to regulate and guide relevant work, prevent and defuse public health risks, and protect people's lives and health.
The document, published by the National Administration of Disease Control and Prevention, consists of four sections and 19 articles. It sets out the objectives of the work, the scope of application and terminology, the basic procedures and mechanisms of the work, and the measures and guarantees.
The rules require early warning of public health threats arising from notifiable diseases, emerging infectious diseases, diseases of unknown etiology and other high-risk infections.
Such risks require notification of potentially affected populations and relevant departments and institutions to take precautionary measures in advance in accordance with regulations.
The rules also require disease control agencies at all levels to collect surveillance data, conduct risk assessments, identify possible public health threats, and determine epidemic risk levels, which should be classified into four levels.
Detailed risk classification standards will be formulated separately by the above-mentioned country agency.-0-
