2022-06-13
"Only a few dozen people may benefit from our outpatient service, and the number of people who benefit from science popularization will increase significantly." On June 10, the National Health Commission held a series of press conferences on "everything is for people's health - our decade". Wang Quan, a member of the National Health Science Popularization expert pool and director of the emergency department of Beijing Children's Hospital, gave an example and called on medical personnel to actively participate in health science popularization education. Over the past decade, medical personnel have not only issued health education prescriptions in the clinical front line, but also conducted public science publicity and education to guide the masses to promote health by paying attention to themselves and changing their behavior, so that health education can become a good prescription to keep away from diseases. Mifeng, spokesman of the National Health Commission and deputy director of the publicity department, introduced that the health literacy level of the national residents has been steadily improved, from only 8.8 out of 100 people in the first 10 years to 25.4 in 2021, and the phased goal of healthy China action in 2022 has been achieved ahead of schedule. Health science popularization is regarded as routine diagnosis and treatment, which only helps people get less diseases "Health first, health education first. We have been promoting medical institutions to carry out health science popularization activities." Mi Feng explained that letting the people master health knowledge and skills and be able to "get sick less and get sick later" is an important embodiment of the implementation of the concept of great health and great health and the policy of prevention first. Local medical and health institutions have become the main front in the work of health science popularization, and medical personnel have become the main force. In Shanghai, more than 400 public medical institutions in the city have generally set up health promotion committees to actively carry out health science popularization; In Henan, the health science popularization competition was included in the skill competition series of Henan Federation of trade unions, and the medical staff who won the gold medal were awarded the May Day Labor Medal of Henan Province All localities encourage medical personnel to participate more in Health Science Popularization: some regard science popularization as daily diagnosis and treatment activities, some regard health tour lectures as grass-roots activities, and some include health education and science popularization ability in Professional Title Assessment... Driven by system innovation, the science popularization ability and level of medical workers have also been continuously improved. In addition to free clinics, tour clinics, health lectures, etc., many individuals have also participated in health talk shows Opened a new media account. Strengthen the construction of authoritative expert database and refute official rumors and false information In the era of new media, the threshold of communication has become lower. Some we media seize the characteristics of people's attention to health information, generate some fake health science popularization, and do some fake health communication, which brings great harm. "There are some false popular science, which need officials to constantly refute rumors and provide authoritative scientific information." Mi Feng frankly said that in order for more real health knowledge to reach the public, it is necessary to have an authoritative "producer" of health knowledge and a well matched "communication channel". In february2020, the health China action promotion office established the National Health Science Popularization expert pool, which was led and promoted by the Publicity Department of the National Health Commission. More than 1000 experts from more than 30 fields, such as health education, clinical medicine and public health, became the first members of the expert pool. Up to now, all provinces in China have established provincial health science popularization expert databases. At the same time, nine departments including the National Health Commission, the Propaganda Department of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China, and the central Internet Information Office jointly issued a document on the mechanism for the release and dissemination of health science popularization knowledge in all media, clarifying the subjects and corresponding responsibilities for the release, dissemination and supervision of health science popularization knowledge. "The expert database is the authoritative 'producer' of health science popularization knowledge, and the communication mechanism has opened up the 'communication channel' of health science popularization." According to MI Feng, the construction of expert base and mechanism is to provide more scientific, authoritative and professional health science popularization knowledge for the masses, create a clear and bright media Health Science Popularization Environment, increase the frequency and scope of health knowledge dissemination, so as to deliver more and better health knowledge to thousands of households.
