China CDC Weekly (CCDC Weekly) serves as a platform for the China CDC. CCDC 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 CCDC Weekly to express views, countermeasures, and suggestions regarding Chinese and global health issues and to report relevant research and surveillance data, reviews, and opinions, etc. CCDC Weekly will help guide public health and clinical practices to cement the China CDC’s professional influence.

CCDC Weekly is managed by the National Health Commission of the People’s Republic of China, prepared by the Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention (China CDC) and published by the editorial department of CCDC Weekly set up by the China CDC.

CCDC Weekly publishes weekly reports regularly and serial reports intermittently.

CCDC Weekly readership predominantly consists of public health practitioners, physicians, researchers, educators, students and news media. It is the China CDC’s primary method for publication of timely, reliable, authoritative, accurate, objective, and useful public health information and recommendations.
