Health and epidemic prevention stations are institutions for food hygiene and disease prevention. Since the founding of New China, China has always adhered to the construction of health and epidemic prevention, and has made great achievements, especially in the control and monitoring of various infectious diseases, and gradually eliminated the development and prevalence of various infectious diseases.
In order to be in line with international standards, at the same time, China has implemented the reform of disease control and health supervision system. Due to the change of functions, since 2002, health and epidemic prevention stations at all levels have been divided into health supervision stations (bureaus) and renamed as centers for disease control and prevention (CDC). By 2004, the basic name change was completed. Health and epidemic prevention stations are basically no longer used except for a few industry systems that still retain their names.
