Pneumococcal disease is known as the "silent killer" around children, because of its high morbidity, high mortality and difficult treatment, it seriously threatens children's health and is one of the major health threats that cannot be ignored.
Hu Guoliang, president of Jiangxi Preventive Medicine Association, said in his speech that life and health is the eternal pursuit of the people, and vaccination is one of the most effective and influential work in China's health undertakings, and is an effective means to prevent, control and even eliminate preventable infectious diseases.
Hu Guoliang said that vaccination is a systematic project that requires the attention and support of the whole society. In the face of the threat of pneumococcal disease to children, it is necessary for personnel of disease control and vaccination units to inform them out of responsibility and love. "Let us work together to prevent and control childhood pneumonia and protect the healthy growth of children."
Liu Jie, deputy director of the Institute of Immunization Planning of Jiangxi Provincial Center for Disease Control and Prevention, said that with the development of science and technology and the improvement of people's awareness of disease prevention, more and more non-immunization program vaccines have been put on the market, and the increase in the types of children's vaccines has also brought problems or challenges to vaccination. In order to obtain more timely and comprehensive protection for children and improve the efficiency of immunization, domestic and foreign organizations and institutions have optimized immunization strategies, reduced the workload of vaccination, and improved the efficiency of vaccination.
Yang Hongwei, director of the domestic marketing medical marketing department of Watson Biotechnology, said that China is one of the countries with a high incidence of pneumococcal diseases, and pneumococcal diseases seriously threaten the health of children under 5 years old, and all ages under 5 years old need to carry out pneumococcal disease prevention and control.
