The China CDC held a national conference themed on “Epidemic hemorrhagic fever prevention and control in key provinces” via video link on Dec 24, 2021 to prevent it from spreading further in winter.
 
Yan Jun, deputy Party secretary of the China CDC and secretary of its Commission for Discipline Inspection, pointed out that COVID-19 is still a severe threat, and as this is now also the high-incidence season for epidemic hemorrhagic fever, all departments at the China CDC must stay highly vigilant and get prepared for prevention and control. 
 
Yan also introduced the development trend and basic prevention and control strategies for epidemic hemorrhagic fever in China, and made arrangements for the next phase of related work.
