Cruise tourism is increasingly popular, with an estimated 30 millionpassengers transported on cruise ships worldwide each year. Safeguarding the health of cruise travelers duringthe entire travel is of ultimate importance for both the industry and global public health.Objective: This study aimed to explore the challenges and opportunities in travel health from the perspective ofglobal health governance.Methods: The global governance framework including problems, values, tools or regulations, and actors relatedto travel health were used to analyze the issues involved.Results: Up to April 2020, nearly thirty cruise ship voyages reported COVID-19 cases. The Diamond Princess,Grand Princess and Ruby Princess cruise ship had over 1,400 total reported COVID-19 cases, and more than 30deaths. A community with a common future in travel health is the core value of global health governance fortravel health. The travel-related international regulations, including the International Health Regulation (IHR[2005]), United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS) and the International Maritime Organization(IMO) conventions should be further updated to deal with the travel health problems. The roles andresponsibilities and the cooperation mechanisms of different actors are not clear in relation to the public healthemergencies during the travel.Conclusion: Travel health transcends national borders and involves multilevel actors, thus needs globalcooperation and governance. Regulations and legislation at global and country level are required to preventlarge-scale humanitarian crisis on travel health. Multilateral coordination, cooperation and collaborationmechanisms between governments, intergovernmental organizations, non-governmental organizations andindustry are needed to build a better community of common destiny for travel health.展开更多

In-fact, owing to its quick spread across international boundaries and the resulting caseload, the disease has been declared as a Public Health Emergency of International Concern on 30 January 2020. It is worth noting that out of the 395 cases detected in other nations, 165 (41.8%) have a positive history of travel to China. As of now, the World Health Organization has not recommended for any restrictions on the travel or trade aspects, but has clearly specified that implementation of International Health Regulations should be strictly done at the airports and seaports. In conclusion, the COVID-19 outbreak has created an alarm across the globe as the causative virus is novel in nature. However, strengthening of standard infection control practices and adoption of preventive measures for travelers can significantly minimize the threat of further transmission of the disease.展开更多

They can receive assistance from the assistance organizations in the countries that are intrusted by the insurance companies when they have difficulties, if they join the assistance insurance. According to the record of China International Travel Assistance (CITA), foreign travellers from 23 countries and regions had received assistance from CITA in 25 provinces, cities and autonomous regions in China between January 1993 and August 1995. There were 217 people at 162 cases being helped. The average number of the travellers gaving received assistance was 13.65 per million. Among which 185 people at 137 cases (85%, 137/162) received medical or medical related assistance. The most common cases had been cardiac, encephalic and vascular diseases, respiratory and digestive system diseases, and trauma had taken 18% (25/137). There were six cases of deaths being recorded (one AIDS, one unknown, one sudden cardiac death, one plane crush, one pulmonary cancer, and one traffic accident). These observations support the initiation of programs to develop travel assistance and set up traveller hospitals or clinics for travellers, as well as the emergency medical service and supply articles for health or medical advisement for international travellers.展开更多
