Since 2016, the Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention has continued to conduct project to assist Sierra Leone in improving its public health capacity and building a laboratory for bacteriological and parasitic diseases. Firstly, we can understand the epidemiological characteristics, etiological characteristics and drug resistance of important infectious diseases in Africa through this project, and provide services and guarantees for the construction of the Belt and Road Initiative. Secondly, the project is to carry out scientific research cooperation on the monitoring and detection capacity of major infectious diseases, biosecurity, and prevention and control technologies for important infectious diseases. Thirdly, in order to implement the concept of "building a community with a shared future for mankind", it is important to improve the capacity of Sierra Leone and West Africa to prevent and control infectious diseases, maintain global health security, and participate in global health governance. This article reviews the implementation of the project, and summarizes the experience and shortcomings, in order to help readers achieve better results in future project practice.
自2016年以来,中国疾病预防控制中心持续开展项目,协助塞拉利昂提升其公共卫生能力,并建设一座细菌学和寄生虫病实验室。首先,通过该项目我们能够了解非洲重要传染病的流行病学特征、病原学特征及耐药情况,为“一带一路”倡议的建设提供服务与保障。其次,该项目旨在就重大传染病监测检测能力、生物安全以及重要传染病防控技术开展科研合作。第三,为践行“人类命运共同体”理念,提升塞拉利昂及西非地区传染病防控能力、维护全球卫生安全并参与全球卫生治理具有重要意义。本文回顾该项目的实施情况,总结经验与不足,以期帮助读者在未来项目实践中取得更好成效。
