Abstract:
Global public health is currently undergoing unprecedented and complex changes. The COVID-19 pandemic has exposed vulnerabilities and weaknesses of the global health system, urging nations globally to prioritize pandemic prevention and response strategies. Simultaneously, emerging infectious diseases such as mpox and avian influenza, as well as re-emerging infectious diseases including tuberculosis, AIDS, and viral hepatitis, continue to pose threats to global public health security. Moreover, the prevalence of chronic diseases remains significant, while concerns pertaining to environmental health and the well-being of children and adolescents are growing increasingly prominent. Addressing these challenges requires the formulation of effective public health policies, strengthened international cooperation, enhanced health education, improved public health literacy, and the establishment of a more resilient global public health system.
