Author:


Xinhua News Agency, Beijing, July 16. A person's health is the foundation of one's life, and the people's health is the foundation of a country.
The State Council recently issued the "Opinions of the State Council on Implementing the Healthy China Action", and issued the "Healthy China Action (2019-2030)" at the national level, planning a new "construction plan" for further promoting the construction of a healthy China. This medium- and long-term action focuses on the current major health problems and influencing factors. Centering on the two cores of disease prevention and health promotion, 15 major special actions will be carried out, and efforts will be made to prevent the masses from getting sick and less likely to get sick.

Start from the front end and comprehensively intervene in the influencing factors of health - the special action puts the concept of "prevention first" into practice
Starting from the front end of the factors affecting health is a highlight of the Healthy China initiative. Relevant experts from the National Health Commission pointed out that the whole of the Healthy China Action Document starts from the front end, starts with the main health influencing factors, and realizes the improvement of health level through health promotion methods.
Everyone is the first responsible person for their own health, and a healthy body comes from a healthy lifestyle. According to the 2014 National Fitness Activity Survey conducted by the State Sports General Administration, 33.9% of urban and rural residents in my country regularly participate in physical exercise. Lack of exercise has become an important reason for the occurrence of various chronic diseases.
It is urgent to promote scientific physical activity and maintain various indicators of the body. The Healthy China Action Document proposes that by 2022 and 2030, the proportion of urban and rural residents who have passed the "National Physical Fitness Measurement Standard" is expected to be no less than 90.86% and 92.17%, respectively.
How to achieve this goal? The Healthy China Initiative encourages moderate-intensity exercise for more than 30 minutes each time, or a total of 150 minutes of moderate-intensity or 75 minutes of high-intensity physical activity. In daily life, try to move as much as possible to achieve a physical activity of 6,000 to 10,000 steps per day.
How to ensure a positive and healthy mental state is also a topic of concern in today's society.
The Healthy China Action put forward the goal that by 2022 and 2030, the level of residents' mental health literacy is expected to increase to 20% and 30%; the prevalence of anxiety disorders and depression will slow down.
The Healthy China Action proposed that government departments should pay attention to and carry out psychological crisis intervention and psychological assistance. Health, political and legal, civil affairs and other units establish and improve mental health education, psychological hotline service, psychological assessment, psychological counseling, psychological treatment, psychiatric treatment and other linked and cooperative psychological crisis intervention and psychological assistance service models.
From the popularization of health knowledge and reasonable diet, to national fitness and tobacco control, to the promotion of mental health and healthy environment, one indicator after another is being refined, and one after another people's livelihood dividend is about to be implemented. The level of health literacy has been greatly improved, and health science has become more standardized and scientific.
Wang Longde, president of the Chinese Preventive Medicine Association, pointed out that these arrangements and suggestions are an organic combination of science and popularization, and are very systematic and detailed, so that ordinary people can understand, remember and do it.

One can not be missing, and the whole life cycle health coverage - implement "grid-based" protection for four key groups including "one old and one small"
"Small glasses" is estimated to exceed 100 million people, and the myopia rate of primary and secondary school students is as high as 71.6% and 36%... The severe situation has made many experts sigh: the prevention and control of myopia among primary and secondary school students will fight a "people's war".
This Healthy China Action takes primary and middle school students as one of the key groups, and mobilizes families, schools, society and the government to jointly protect their physical and mental health and form a "grid-like" protection. The document proposes to guide students to develop healthy living habits from an early age, exercise a healthy body, and prevent diseases such as myopia and obesity.
This health promotion action for primary and secondary schools clearly puts forward the measures that individuals and families should take. For example, primary and secondary school students should be exposed to natural light outside the school for more than 1 hour every day, and the use of electronic screen products for non-learning purposes should not exceed 15 minutes at a time. Experts point out that this will greatly implement individual health responsibilities and form a strong synergy for health promotion.
The relevant person in charge of the National Health and Health Commission pointed out that special actions are carried out especially for four key groups of women, infants and young children, primary and secondary school students, workers, and the elderly, and to actively respond to the special problems faced by these groups and carry out all-round interventions. One of the highlights of the Healthy China Action.
At the same time, in the special actions for the four key groups, relevant measures have been put forward for disability prevention and rehabilitation services, and health promotion for key groups in poverty-stricken areas, reflecting the firm commitment to "no less than one" health coverage throughout the life cycle.
Under the goal of significantly improving the health of key populations, the medium and long-term goals for 2022 and 2030 show determination and confidence:
——The infant mortality rate shall be controlled at 7.5‰ and below and 5‰ and below respectively, and the maternal mortality rate shall be reduced to 18/100,000 and below and 12/100,000 or below respectively;
——The national student physique and health standards have reached 50% and above and 60% and above, respectively. The overall myopia rate of children and adolescents in the country will be reduced by more than 0.5 percentage points every year, and the new-onset myopia rate has dropped significantly;
——The proportion of newly reported cases of pneumoconiosis among workers with less than 5 years of experience in dust exposure to the total number of annual reports has been significantly reduced and continues to decline;
——The incidence of disability in the elderly aged 65 to 74 has decreased, and the growth rate of the prevalence of Alzheimer's disease in people aged 65 and over has decreased.
...
Fu Wei, director of the Health Development Research Center of the National Health and Medical Commission, pointed out that the whole-life-cycle health promotion actions around the four key groups reflect the concept of general health and general health centered on people's health. The specific practice of co-construction and sharing”.

Decisive battle against "health killers", prevention and control of major diseases - key interventions around the prevention and treatment of four major chronic diseases
Speaking of "health killers", cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases and cancer should arouse people's vigilance most.
Data shows that cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases are currently the first cause of death among Chinese residents, and one person dies of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases about every 10 seconds.
As one of the most dangerous diseases in cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, stroke is an important cause of death and disability among adults in my country. It has the characteristics of high morbidity, high disability rate, high mortality rate and high recurrence rate. It is particularly important to carry out first aid during the rescue time window.
The Healthy China Action pointed out that learning and mastering the correct self-help measures and emergency medical advice in the early stage of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases will help reduce the fatality rate and disability rate.
"The number of deaths caused by cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases is relatively high. This document specifically emphasizes first aid. In response to the general lack of first aid knowledge and insufficient first aid facilities, this Healthy China Action emphasizes first aid knowledge training for citizens and first aid facilities in densely populated places. Equipping is a manifestation of social progress." Experts said.
Cancer is one of the most serious diseases that people talk about. At present, there are about 3.8 million new cancer cases and 2.29 million deaths in my country every year, and the morbidity and mortality are increasing year by year.
Zero tariffs on anti-cancer drugs, medical insurance negotiation, accelerated approval of new drugs, inclusion in the essential drug list... In recent years, in order to make anti-cancer drugs affordable for patients, the relevant state departments have made a combination of price cuts for "high-priced drugs" and continuously increased their efforts to fight cancer. Drug-related policy reform efforts.
"Pay close attention to the danger signs of cancer" and "generally carry out opportunistic cancer screening"... This Healthy China Action provides recommendations on cancer prevention, early screening, early diagnosis and early treatment, standardized treatment, rehabilitation and dietary guidance.
With the continuous changes in the disease spectrum of Chinese residents, the Healthy China Initiative has clearly stated that it will implement prevention and control actions for four major chronic diseases, including cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, cancer, chronic respiratory diseases, and diabetes, and focus on key interventions on prominent problems in the prevention and control of major diseases. It also provides guidance and suggestions for the public in terms of self-health management, diet, exercise and other lifestyle aspects.
If the "Healthy China 2030" Planning Outline proposes the implementation path of co-construction and sharing, then this Healthy China Action has put it into practice. Kong Lingzhi, vice president of the Chinese Preventive Medicine Association, pointed out that every action is carried out from three aspects: the individual, the society, and the government, involving individuals, families, communities, schools, enterprises and institutions, medical and health institutions, and the government. The multi-party co-governance structure. (Xinhua News Agency reporters Chen Cong, Qu Ting, Wang Bingyang, and Wen Jinghua)
