I. Division of functions
As the competent department of national disease prevention and control, the National Bureau of Disease Prevention and Control covers all aspects of disease prevention and control. Responsible for formulating and implementing national policies and plans for disease prevention and control, organizing disease prevention and control monitoring, early warning and risk assessment, coordinating and guiding the work of local disease control institutions, and conducting international cooperation and exchanges. The work of the National Bureau for Disease Control and Prevention focuses on preventing and controlling the spread and prevalence of diseases and protecting people's health.
The National Health and Wellness Committee is the comprehensive management department of national health work, and its responsibilities are more extensive. The National Health Commission is responsible for formulating and implementing national health policies, plans and standards, promoting the reform of the medical and health system, and strengthening the management and supervision of public health, medical services and health emergencies. At the same time, the National Health Committee is also responsible for coordinating the health work among various departments and promoting the all-round development of health undertakings.
Second, cooperation and collaboration.
Although the National Center for Disease Control and Prevention and National Health Commission have a division of functions, their cooperation is inseparable. In view of major public health incidents and sudden outbreaks, it is necessary for the National Center for Disease Control and Prevention and National Health Commission to work closely together to formulate coping strategies and measures, coordinate resources and strength, and ensure the smooth progress of prevention and control work. In addition, in their daily work, they need to strengthen communication and coordination to promote the development of medical and health undertakings.
To sum up:
The National Center for Disease Control and Prevention and the National Health Commission have a division of functions, but the cooperation between them is the key factor to ensure the smooth development of the national health cause. The National Bureau of Disease Control and Prevention is mainly responsible for the monitoring, early warning and risk assessment of disease prevention and control, and the National Health and Wellness Committee comprehensively manages the national health work. When dealing with major public health incidents and sudden outbreaks, the two need to work closely together to meet the challenges.
