In order to promote the healthy China strategy and the national strategy of actively responding to the aging population, and effectively improve the health literacy and health level of the elderly, the National Health Commission and the State Administration of traditional Chinese medicine jointly issued a notice a few days ago, which will focus on the nutrition and health of the elderly and organize the national elderly health promotion week in 2022 from July 25 to July 31, 2022. The theme of this year's activity is "improving nutrition and promoting health of the elderly". The circular points out that all localities should publicize the health policy for the elderly, the popular knowledge of health for the elderly, and the nutrition and health knowledge for the elderly. In combination with the characteristics of the elderly, we will publicize scientific knowledge such as epidemic prevention and control, vaccination, traditional Chinese medicine health care, sports and fitness, prevention and treatment of common and chronic diseases of the elderly, rehabilitation care, mental health, injury prevention and emergency rescue through various means such as health education and popular science videos for the elderly. Protecting the health of the elderly is related to the overall health of the whole people. The notice requires that health administrative departments and Chinese medicine departments at all levels focus on the theme of nutrition and health for the elderly and combine local conditions to carry out the national elderly health publicity week in 2022 in the form that the elderly like to see and hear. In combination with the situation of epidemic prevention and control in the region, we will highlight regional characteristics and promote online and offline publicity as a whole. Health knowledge competitions, expert interviews, posters, display boards and other ways were adopted to continuously publicize health policies and scientific knowledge for the elderly and families.
