China is taking a big stand against infectious diseases! The National Health Commission just dropped new protocols for measles, dengue fever, and human infections with the avian influenza virus. 📝✨
These guidelines cover everything from how these diseases spread, to symptoms, diagnosis, and treatment. They're like a superhero manual for doctors and health workers! 🦸♀️🦸♂️
Measles Matters
According to one of the protocols, everyone can catch the measles virus, and the infection rate is over 90% for those without immunity. 😷 So, it's super important to stay protected!
Defeating Dengue
The new rules for dengue fever highlight catching severe cases early and treating them ASAP. Plus, patients need to be kept away from mosquitoes 🦟 (sorry, mozzies!) until they're not contagious anymore.
Avoiding Avian Influenza
To dodge the avian flu, the protocol suggests steering clear of sick or dead animals and keeping up healthy eating habits. If you get symptoms like fever, see a doctor pronto and let them know if you've been around birds or poultry markets. 🐔👨⚕️
Boosting Public Health
China is leveling up its public health game. They're rolling out programs to get hospitals and disease control agencies working together better. They're also planning to have disease control supervisors in medical institutions and give more power to public health physicians. 💪🏥
