  In October 2019, the World Health Organization released the "Global Strategy for Digital Health (2020-2024)" (draft), which determined the priority of the digital health strategy.

In 2020, the sudden new crown pneumonia epidemic has pushed digital healthcare to an unprecedentedly important position, directly promoting the digital revolution in China and the global healthcare.

  "Since the beginning of this year, the outbreak of the new crown pneumonia epidemic has profoundly affected the development of the global economy. Zhejiang has insisted on'two hands, win two battles', and coordinated epidemic prevention and control and economic and social development." Su Changcong said in his speech that the digital economy has played a role. It plays an important role. Digital technologies represented by artificial intelligence, big data, and 5G have opened up the “second battlefield” in the fight against the epidemic, real-time dynamic correlation of “human and material monitoring”, medical treatment, epidemiological investigation, laboratory testing and Information such as the trajectory of actions can achieve precise early warning and effective control.

  Gao Li, the representative of the World Health Organization in China, pointed out in an online speech that today, telemedicine is changing the way people receive medical and health services, and artificial intelligence has improved the ability to diagnose complex diseases and identify new diseases.

The correct use of digital technology is critical to achieving sustainable development goals.

  "Digital health is no longer a luxury, but a necessity. The essence of digital technology and data applications lies in rapid development. Countries need to ensure that digital health governance is flexible and robust, adapting to the latest technology and ensuring the interests of the general public. And carry out strategic dialogues with digital technology partners to meet challenges together," Gao Li said.

  It is reported that from the height of global health, the guests at the summit talked freely about the strategic position and practical application of big data technology in the global fight against the new crown pneumonia epidemic, and the prospects of the digital health industry in the development of global health.

  Faced with the rising trend of overseas epidemics, the new crown pneumonia vaccine has become a hot spot of concern from all walks of life.

According to Wu Guizhen, as of October 19, 2020, there are 198 candidate new crown vaccines registered by the WHO in various countries: 44 have entered the clinical trial stage, 13 of which are from China.

  For the post-epidemic era, Wu Guizhen suggested that the citizens' civic quality and scientific literacy need to be continuously improved; and the intensity of key core technologies should be increased.

  Li Lanjuan delivered a keynote speech online, saying that digital technologies such as artificial intelligence and cloud computing have played an extremely important supporting role in the monitoring, analysis, and virus traceability of the new crown pneumonia epidemic. At the same time, it supports scientific and technological epidemic prevention, early warning, prevention and control. It also has a lot to do.

  "For example, after the outbreak of a new outbreak in Beijing, we adopted big data'cloud flow adjustment', especially for high-risk groups through time and space, to find out their close contacts, so that the outbreak in Beijing was controlled in a timely and effective manner. The department uses big data and artificial intelligence to build a comprehensive dispatch management platform, which provides scientific support for timely adjustment of prevention and control strategies." Li Lanjuan said that China and other countries in the world are the distance that an aircraft can reach, and now China's new crown pneumonia epidemic has received a lot of attention. Good control, but the global epidemic is still spreading. In the future, artificial intelligence will develop rapidly in the medical and health field. We should focus on the basic guarantee of intelligent medical care, such as intelligent medical supervision, human-machine hybrid intelligent medical care, and intelligent decision-making for medical groups. The field should also achieve major breakthroughs.

  Cai Jiangnan, the founder and executive chairman of Shanghai Chuangqi Health Development Research Institute, focused on "ten trends in the development of the health industry in the post-epidemic era", including "online and offline", "combination of hospital and hospital", "combination of diagnosis and treatment" "etc.

It believes that disruptive innovation in the medical and health field is to provide consumers with simpler and cheaper products and services, and to provide consumers with higher-value choices.

The epidemic has forced the development of new technologies. The development of new technologies such as information technology, the Internet, the Internet of Things, big data, and artificial intelligence is conducive to disruptive innovation in the medical and health field.

  According to Zhu Yaochuan, chairman of the Zhejiang Provincial Health Service Industry Promotion Association, China has the world's largest application scenario for digital health, and digital health will become the broadest track in the industrial Internet era, with a market space of trillions.

  "Digital health is bound to become a key part of the new infrastructure construction of the future medical system. Due to the catalysis of the epidemic, digital health will usher in the first year in 2020 and become an important part of the'new infrastructure'. China's digital health market has a bright future. ." Zhu Yao legend.

  It is reported that the forum is hosted by Zhejiang Provincial Health Commission, Zhejiang Provincial Development and Reform Commission, Zhejiang Provincial Department of Economy and Information Technology, and organized by Zhejiang Provincial Health Service Industry Promotion Association and Hangzhou Future Science and Technology City (Haichuang Park) Management Committee.
