The Weekly publishes authoritative professional information on national population health, disease and risk factor monitoring, investigation data, and important public health event investigation reports. China CDC will use the Weekly to share views, action plans, and suggestions regarding Chinese and global public health issues and to report relevant research and surveillance data, reviews, and opinions, etc. The Weekly will help guide public health and clinical practices to contribute to China CDC’s professional influence.

The Weekly is managed by the National Health Commission of the People’s Republic of China, prepared by China CDC, and published by the editorial department of the Weekly set up by the China CDC. The Weekly is funded institutionally, and no advertisements are permitted nor considered.
