Abstract

Since December 2019, there has been widespread concern over an unexplained pneumonia epidemic in Wuhan. Less than a month later, the expert team has identified the etiology, a novel coronavirus, which has won a "golden window" for effectively preventing the spread of the emerging infectious diseases. The prompt response of Chinese researchers to emerging infectious diseases has been recognized and appreciated by the World Health Organization, and reflects that the substantially improved ability to identify emerging infectious diseases. However, the strength of the current infectious disease discipline in China has yet to be further strengthened to meet the needs of China's public health development and the challenges of infectious diseases. Faced with urban aging and the spread of drug-resistant bacterial infections, as well as the increase in imported diseases and the uncontrollable risks of unknown infectious diseases, the future demand for infectious disease prevention and control systems in China is diverse, open, and flexible, including but It is not limited to the prevention and control of communicable diseases, diagnosis and treatment of bacterial and fungi infections, nosocomial infection control, and the use of antibiotic-resistant antibacterial drugs. Infectious disease professionals take on important tasks and responsibilities to protect the "Healthy China" strategy. Key words: SARS-CoV-2 infection; New infectious diseases; Identification of virus

新型冠状病毒鉴定与新发传染病防控形势

自2019年12月以来，武汉发生的不明原因肺炎疫情引起了广泛关注。不到一个月后，专家小组确定了新型冠状病毒的病因，为有效防止新发传染病的传播赢得了“黄金窗口”。中国研究人员对新发传染病的迅速反应得到了世界卫生组织的认可和赞赏，反映出识别新发传染疾病的能力大幅提高。然而，中国当前传染病学科的实力还有待进一步加强，以适应中国公共卫生发展的需要和传染病的挑战。面对城市老龄化和耐药细菌感染的传播，以及输入性疾病的增加和未知传染病的不可控风险，中国未来对传染病预防和控制系统的需求是多样、开放和灵活的，包括但不限于传染病的预防和控制，细菌和真菌感染的诊断和治疗，医院感染控制，以及抗生素耐药性抗菌药物的使用。传染病专业人员肩负着保护“健康中国”战略的重要任务和责任。关键词：严重急性呼吸系统综合征冠状病毒2型感染；新型传染病；病毒的鉴定

期刊介绍： The Chinese Journal of Infectious Diseases was founded in February 1983. It is an academic journal on infectious diseases supervised by the China Association for Science and Technology, sponsored by the Chinese Medical Association, and hosted by the Shanghai Medical Association. The journal targets infectious disease physicians as its main readers, taking into account physicians of other interdisciplinary disciplines, and timely reports on leading scientific research results and clinical diagnosis and treatment experience in the field of infectious diseases, as well as basic theoretical research that has a guiding role in the clinical practice of infectious diseases and is closely integrated with the actual clinical practice of infectious diseases. Columns include reviews (including editor-in-chief reviews), expert lectures, consensus and guidelines (including interpretations), monographs, short monographs, academic debates, epidemic news, international dynamics, case reports, reviews, lectures, meeting minutes, etc.
