ABSTRACT

In the early years of the founding of New China, the patriotic health movement was launched nationwide to consolidate the new regime, improve national health, improve medical and health care, and respond to American germ warfare. The patriotic health movement achieved the purpose of universal participation in the patriotic health movement by realizing the political identity, national and ethnic identity, master identity, and new moral identity of the people. The Organization's leadership, effective mobilization and propaganda, the central position of the people, and the popularization of scientific health knowledge were fully reflected in this process. The patriotic health movement in the early days of the founding of the nation has brought profound inspiration to the contemporary patriotic health movement and the popular identity of a healthy China, namely, the need to take national emotions as an opportunity, combine national and popular interests, scientific guidance and the power of exemplary role models to achieve popular identity, to internalize it in the heart and externalize it in practice.
