It stresses the need to improve health responses during extreme weather, ensuring medical facilities can handle patient surges, and maintaining essential services during natural disasters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Many regions across China have experienced extreme-weather events this year. In May, a climate-adaptation <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mee.gov.cn\/xxgk2018\/xxgk\/xxgk06\/202406\/W020240607336959617723.pdf\">progress report<\/a> underscored national vulnerability to climate impacts and the importance of adaptation. According to <a href=\"http:\/\/www.news.cn\/20240918\/693caab8fe284229be07b361b86ffe6f\/c.html\">Xinhua<\/a>, the new health plan is part of efforts to adapt, and also follows the <a

class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">China signed the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cop28.com\/en\/cop28-uae-declaration-on-climate-and-health\">COP28 UAE Declaration on Climate and Health<\/a> last year in Dubai, which calls for strengthening healthcare systems to withstand climate risks and integrating public health into national policies and climate-adaptation strategies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p
