At present, the temperature rises, and the number of people seeking treatment for diarrhoea in the park has increased correspondingly. Some middle-aged and elderly tourists are suffering from diarrhea due to the gastrointestinal tract being not suitable for direct drinking or ice drinks with low temperature. This causes a certain proportion of diarrhea, and reminds visitors to prevent heatstroke.

Physical fatigue can lead to trauma.

According to statistics, the number of trauma patients in the Expo site accounted for 16.5%. According to the analysis of the causes of trauma, the crowding and contention of people are one of the main causes of injuries such as rubbing, wrestling and extrusion. Secondly, tourists' distraction and physical fatigue are all likely to cause trauma. Some injuries are also related to improper wear of tourists when they visit the park. Women who wear high heels or slippers are prone to sprain, fall, and skin scrapes and bleed, resulting in difficulty in walking. Fracture patients mainly rush to the popular venues when they enter the park in the morning. They often fall or take part in physical fatigue during their early occupancy, and are distracted from the walking process. The city's health department suggests that tourists should queue up in civilized order and visit in an orderly way. When they visit, concentrate on energy, guard against falling injuries, pay attention to rest, keep physical strength, wear shoes properly and prevent foot injuries.

The incidence of heat stroke in women is higher than that in men.

According to the introduction, the number of patients with mild heatstroke in the Expo site accounted for 7.1%. Analysis of the causes of heat stroke is that heat stroke in the park is mainly related to hot and hot weather, intensity of crowd flow and queuing time. The high incidence time of sunstroke patients in the park is from 12 hours to 18 hours a day, and the incidence of heat stroke in women is much higher than that in men. The city's health department suggests that in the high temperature weather, you should bring sunshade and sunscreen products. You should pay attention to sunscreen and other protective products. Hot and hot weather, visitors should pay more attention to drinking water, the park should do what it takes, and distribute physical strength rationally. Pregnant women, children, and physically disabled persons should minimize walking and prepare small stools for venues with longer waiting time.

　　 Chilled Drinks Easy to cause diarrhea

With the increase of temperature, the number of diarrhoea visiting patients in the park has increased correspondingly. The analysis found that there are many factors that induce diarrhea. Some of the middle-aged and elderly tourists have a certain proportion of diarrhoea caused by gastrointestinal tract which is not suitable for direct drinking water or iced beverages which are directly consumed at lower temperature. The Municipal Health Department suggests that tourists should queue up behind the hot sun for a long time to enter the pavilion. The clothing should be appropriately increased according to the temperature difference inside and outside the stadium. Attention should be paid to drinking more water. It is advisable to drink mineral water, direct drinking water, salt containing soft drinks and sports drinks provided by the park. Do not bring perishable food into the garden in high temperature to prevent foodborne diseases. It is suggested that travel agents visit the Expo teams to inform health tips about food hygiene and safety.

Strengthening Garden Health Tips

Li Zhongyang said that in view of the continuous hot weather, the large passenger flow and the gradual increase in the number of children in summer, the Municipal Health Bureau issued a series of warm health tips to the public through the news media to visit the Expo "healthy gardens and safe parks". 9 health tips were sent to the Expo visitors to remind the visitors to prevent heatstroke, remind children to visit the garden, pay attention to safety protection, remind the patients of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, You Shibo's protective measures, and visit the Expo during the rainy season. The Municipal Health Bureau regularly releases public infectious disease prevention tips in the first ten days of each month. Health tips and disease prevention tips are also posted on the Shanghai health information network and broadcast on the more than 32000 Oriental Pearl TV mobile TV stations in the city.

Strengthening on-site diagnosis and treatment for children and visitors

In order to do a good job in medical services, the Municipal Health Bureau has been providing medicines for high temperature heat stroke at various medical stations. In view of the large increase in children's tourists in summer parks, the experts of children's Medical Center organized the "on-site treatment process for common diseases in pediatrics" and sent them to all medical stations in the park. The ambulance on duty will be increased again. It has now increased to 13 vehicles and has increased to 15 vehicles. The Municipal Health Bureau will further reserve the medical support force. In the weekends, holidays, large passenger flow and extreme weather, medical personnel and ambulances outside the park can be transferred to the park to reinforce medical support.

The Municipal Health Bureau and the City Meteorological Bureau jointly carried out a study on the correlation between meteorological factors and the occurrence of heat stroke, diarrhea and trauma in the Expo site. Based on the case data collected in the two months before the operation, meteorological factors with relatively good correlation were selected to establish a prediction model. On the basis of the prediction model, the Municipal Health Bureau and the Municipal Meteorological Bureau began to carry out the pre test operation of the second days in the Expo area from the middle of July, according to the weather forecast, and provided the park visitor service center and the various area management departments to implement preventive measures.

Safeguard measures

Strict prevention of infectious disease input

In order to implement the public health security measures, aiming at the seasonal disease incidence and the risk of disease brought by personnel movement in World Expo, the municipal health department took three key steps: prevention, early warning and disposal, and adopted targeted measures.

First, strengthen the online monitoring of direct drinking water in the Expo site.

30 direct drinking water on-line monitoring points were set up in the park, and the relevant health indicators were monitored online for 24 hours. Health monitoring personnel in the park carry out full coverage of the direct drinking water points in the park every day.

Two is to strengthen disease surveillance and early warning.

We should strengthen the inspection and quarantine measures for personnel, commodities, animals and plants at entry ports, and strictly control the importation of infectious diseases outside the territory. On the basis of strengthening the prevention and control of pests and diseases in the whole city, we focus on the monitoring of vector density, drug resistance monitoring and pathogen monitoring and control in the Expo site and surrounding environment. We should build a joint prevention and control system for infectious diseases in World Expo provinces and municipalities to ensure public health and safety in the Yangtze River Delta, and strengthen information communication and technical cooperation.

Three, we should deal with public health emergencies scientifically.

Various contingency plans for public health incidents such as infectious diseases and chemical poisoning have been established. The laboratories of the Centers for Disease Control and prevention have the ability to carry out 387 pathogen detection items and 1159 health inspection items. With the support of WHO, the epidemic situation of infectious diseases in participating countries in World Expo was collected and analyzed, the diagnosis methods and control measures were established, knowledge base for rare infectious diseases and toxicants was established, and personnel, medicines and technology reserves were carried out.

Do a good job in pest control

In the middle of July, the City Ai Wei office launched the anti mosquito and fly control activities in the World Expo in the middle of July, and continued to carry out pest killing activities around the Expo site.

The city will strengthen the tracing, sorting and tracing of influenza like cases and diarrhoea cases in summer in the park, analyze and judge scientifically, identify the epidemic seedlings early, and deal with them quickly and effectively. We should constantly improve monitoring sensitivity and do a good job in social prevention and control of key infectious diseases such as hand, foot and mouth disease. We will continue to carry out surveillance of diarrhoea cases in key hospitals in the Expo area and surrounding key areas, and continue to work closely with health, education and other relevant departments in the prevention and control of key infectious diseases such as vector borne diseases, environmental sanitation and nurseries, foot and mouth disease in kindergartens. The Municipal Health Bureau will further strengthen regular video communication with the Ministry of health and the health administrative departments of two provinces in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, and strengthen the analysis of the situation of infectious diseases prevention and control in the World Expo, and study and deploy corresponding countermeasures.
