Features: The compilers of this book are all senior experts from Capital Medical University, Beijing Municipal Center for Disease Control and Prevention, and the Chinese Society of Health Law, who have long been engaged in epidemiology, infectious diseases, psychiatry, and related disciplines. They have all personally participated in the fight against "SARS" in 2003. In view of the problems exposed in the prevention and treatment of "SARS," the purpose of compiling this book is to make up for and improve the knowledge and ability of medical students and healthcare workers in dealing with acute and sudden infectious diseases. This book is divided into three parts: Part I is on epidemiology of infectious diseases; the second part is on the diagnosis and treatment of sudden infectious diseases; the third part is on policies, regulations, and related knowledge. This book highlights case-based teaching, closely integrating the teaching focus of each chapter, and uses concise text to narrate real events or medical cases carefully selected by the compilers. Some cases are analyzed to enhance students' independent learning and guide them to improve their ability to analyze and think critically. The target audience for this book includes undergraduate and postgraduate students from various disciplines of medical schools, seven-year program students, graduate students, and practicing healthcare workers. It can be used as a required course for clinical education in the later stage of medical student training and as a continuing education textbook for practicing healthcare workers.
