In February 2003, a Chinese physician crossed the border between mainland China and Hong Kong, spreading Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS)—a novel flu-like virus—to over a dozen international hotel guests. SARS went on to kill about 800 people and sicken 8,000 worldwide. By July 2003 the disease had disappeared, but it left an indelible change on public health in China. The Chinese public health system, once famous for its grassroots, low-technology approach, was transformed into a globally-oriented, research-based, scientific endeavor.
In Infectious Change, Katherine A. Mason investigates local Chinese public health institutions in Southeastern China, examining how the outbreak of SARS re-imagined public health as a professionalized, biomedicalized, and technological machine—one that frequently failed to serve the Chinese people. Mason recounts the rapid transformation as young, highly trained biomedical scientists flooded into local public health institutions, replacing bureaucratic government inspectors who had dominated the field for decades. Infectious Change grapples with how public health in China was reinvented into a prestigious profession in which global impact and recognition were paramount—and service to vulnerable local communities was secondary.
Katherine A. Mason is Assistant Professor of Anthropology at Brown University.

评分第四章惊人,理解的基石之一
评分大概兩個半月前,大家都說要看這本書,非常符合當時國內的疫情管理情況。彼時大家大約都在質疑quarantine,本書第四章講當年深圳有關H1N1的應對非常精彩,大約也切合兩個半月前大家的理解。我當時實在沒有心情讀,現在找出來讀了一遍,似乎感觸有些不同,但有趣的是,同樣也能在書中找到很多與現在疫情控制的映照與切合之處。歷史不會重複,但多多少少會押韻,誠哉斯言,大概也說明了本書寫得確實很有價值。頁8,“prevention first”是「預防為主」(yufang weizhu), 這裡寫成了 (yufang weizhi),後面的glossary倒是寫對了;頁157等處的 “huoluan”也許是“hunluan”(混亂)?
评分现在看来这本书的结论完全错误啊,一个高度职业化的公共卫生系统并没有建立起来
