Abstract

Objective: At present, COVID-19 has already spread rapidly as a global pandemic, just like SARS in 2003 and H1N1 swine influenza in 2009. This study analyzes surveillance and emergency responses to these three epidemics to identify gaps in public health emergency management.

Methods: This case-comparative study uses 6 critical time points to evaluate and compare the responses.

Results: Results indicate that China has demonstrated improvements in pathogen identification and governmental coordination since the SARS outbreak, though its overall responsiveness during COVID-19 remained slower than that of the U.S. during the H1N1 pandemic. Specifically, the total response time for COVID-19 was 47 days-64 days faster than during SARS, but still 19 days slower than the U.S. response to H1N1.

Conclusions: Big data technology is crucial for China's epidemic prevention and control, and has a significant influence on future detection and prevention.

SARS、H1N1和COVID-19的早期监测和公共卫生应急措施：病例比较研究

目的：目前，COVID-19已经像2003年的SARS和2009年的H1N1猪流感一样，作为全球大流行迅速传播。本研究分析了对这三种流行病的监测和应急反应，以确定公共卫生应急管理方面的差距。方法：采用6个关键时间点对患者的反应进行评价和比较。结果：结果表明，自SARS爆发以来，中国在病原体识别和政府协调方面取得了进展，尽管其在COVID-19期间的总体反应速度仍低于美国在H1N1大流行期间的反应速度。具体而言，COVID-19的总反应时间为47天，比SARS期间快64天，但仍比美国对H1N1的反应慢19天。结论：大数据技术对中国疫情防控至关重要，对未来的检测和预防具有重要影响。

期刊介绍： Disaster Medicine and Public Health Preparedness is the first comprehensive and authoritative journal emphasizing public health preparedness and disaster response for all health care and public health professionals globally. The journal seeks to translate science into practice and integrate medical and public health perspectives. With the events of September 11, the subsequent anthrax attacks, the tsunami in Indonesia, hurricane Katrina, SARS and the H1N1 Influenza Pandemic, all health care and public health professionals must be prepared to respond to emergency situations. In support of these pressing public health needs, Disaster Medicine and Public Health Preparedness is committed to the medical and public health communities who are the stewards of the health and security of citizens worldwide.
