Sumario:As public health emergencies become increasingly complex and frequent worldwide, modernization of the public health emergency system is urgently required for improving the overall security level of a country; it is also crucial for the modernization of the national governance system. In this study, we summarize China’s response to public health emergencies from three aspects: epidemic surveillance and reporting system, sentinel surveillance and multipoint trigger mechanism, and mobile terminal application for individuals. Moreover, we explore the development paths for precise control and integrated management of public health emergencies and propose corresponding suggestions. Specifically, precision control can be realized by combining the following aspects: temporal and spatial modeling and calculation for the epidemic, epidemic data collection and information statistics, grassroots community prevention and control, and emergency resource supply. Integrated management should focus on: collection and perception of social governance information, data analysis and calculation platforms, rapid response and command at the grassroots level, epidemic monitoring/early warning/prediction, and continuous risk assessment. Furthermore, we suggest that China should strengthen information technology to enable epidemic prevention and control, improve its epidemic monitoring and reporting system, and build an integrated prevention and control system for public health governance.
