新冠肺炎疫情:重塑全球公共卫生安全

The COVID-19 Pandemic:Reshaping Global Health Security

2019年底发生的新冠肺炎疫情(COVID-19),将是21世纪编年史上的划时代事件。它在经历暴发初期和中国"举国抗疫"关键阶段之后,发展为大流行疫情,给世界带来颠覆性破坏与深远影响。这场特大公共卫生危机具有全新病毒肆虐、"信息疫情"深重和导致综合危机三大特点,暴露了全球公共卫生安全治理的一系列短板,体现了人类健康福祉同国际和平与安全议程重心的高度融合。中国向国际社会沟通情况、分享信息和提供援助展现了对全球公共卫生安全的大国担当。为进一步增强自身硬实力和软权力,对人类健康做出更大贡献,中国需用先进理念指导国家生物安全体系建设,大力弘扬人道主义精神,坚决捍卫以联合国为核心的全球卫生多边治理体制,发展与所有利益相关方的多元合作伙伴关系。这是实现2030年可持续发展议程的根本要求,也是构建人类命运共同体的必由之路。
