Doctors are a noble profession that protects lives and safeguards people's health. They stay at the forefront of disease prevention and treatment day and night, using their skillful hands and benevolent hearts to drive away diseases, using warmth and care to provide spiritual comfort to patients, and using great love and responsibility to protect people's health. August 19 is the seventh Chinese Doctors' Day. We pay tribute to the angels in white and wish medical workers a happy holiday!

The theme of this year's Doctors' Day is "Advocate the humanistic spirit and demonstrate the benevolence of doctors". Humanity is the essential attribute of medicine. To advocate the humanistic spirit of medicine is to firmly believe in "trusting life and never giving up", adhere to the people-oriented and morality-first principles, and fulfill the duties of "sometimes to heal, often to help, and always to comfort" with heart, emotion and strength, and constantly enrich and expand the connotation and value of the benevolence of doctors in the new era.

The humanistic spirit of medicine comes from the great love and responsibility, dedication and contribution of medical staff. From Academician Zhong Nanshan's determination to "go wherever there is danger", to Academician Zhang Boli's practice of great medicine to inherit the culture of traditional Chinese medicine; from Wu Mengchao, the "Father of Chinese Hepatobiliary Surgery" who has fought on the operating table for a lifetime and "regarded life as his mission", to ophthalmologist Tao Yong who stepped out of the shadow of "hand injury" and took "no blindness in the world" as his mission and continued his medical career... These outstanding representatives of the medical team insist on putting people and life first, and have "the great cause of the country" in mind. They loyally protect the health of the people, make extraordinary contributions in ordinary positions, and have won the affirmation and recognition of the Party and the people. The vast number of medical staff anchored the model coordinates, and did their best to bring peace and health to the general public, showing noble medical ethics and strong humanistic feelings.

Since the 18th CPC National Congress, a series of measures to strengthen the construction of the medical team have been steadily promoted, the personnel structure of the medical team has been significantly improved, the long-term mechanism for the construction of medical ethics and medical style has been increasingly improved, the professional quality and medical technology level of doctors have been continuously improved, and the sense of achievement and professional honor of the medical team has been continuously enhanced. At the same time, some places still have the phenomenon of excessive psychological pressure on doctors, overloaded work, and insufficient rest time. In this regard, all localities should attach great importance to it and take practical measures to solve it.

Reform is the driving force of development and the "golden key" to solve all problems. The "Decision of the CPC Central Committee on Further Deepening Reform and Promoting Chinese-style Modernization" reviewed and approved at the Third Plenary Session of the 20th CPC Central Committee proposed "deepening the reform of the medical and health system", "deepening the reform of public hospitals oriented towards public welfare, establishing a charging mechanism dominated by medical services, improving the salary system, and establishing a dynamic adjustment mechanism for establishment", etc. These important arrangements provide guidance and guarantee for strengthening the construction of the physician team and promoting the humanistic spirit of medicine.

To push forward the reform of the medical and health system in depth, it is necessary to vigorously promote social co-governance, medical and preventive coordination, and medical and preventive integration, accelerate the expansion of high-quality medical resources, and increase the supply of high-quality medical resources. Taking the deepening of the reform of the public hospital salary system as a starting point, we will establish and improve a salary system that reflects job functions and technical labor prices, and then work hard to improve the salary and benefits, development space, and practice environment of medical personnel, so as to solve their problems, reduce their burdens and empower them, further mobilize their enthusiasm and initiative in work, guide and encourage more outstanding talents to study medicine and practice medicine, and the majority of doctors will advocate humanistic spirit, practice benevolence and medical skills, and provide the people with better and more efficient health services.

In order to make the humanistic spirit of medicine become popular, it is necessary for the majority of doctors to stick to the original intention of being a doctor, bravely shoulder the mission of health, strive to be the advocates and practitioners of the humanistic spirit of medicine, study medical skills in depth, respect morality and integrity, strengthen humanistic care and health knowledge promotion, and continuously improve the quality of medical services.

To make the humanistic spirit of medicine popular, it is inseparable from the care and support of the society for medical staff. Each of us should fully understand the pressure faced by the medical community, sympathize with their hardships, carry forward the fine tradition of respecting doctors and health workers, put the voice of respect and the actions of praise into practice, create a good working environment for them to treat and save lives, and let the majority of medical staff feel at ease, assured, and comfortable in the sacred cause of saving lives and healing the wounded. Let us care and support doctors not only on Doctors' Day, but also permeate every day.
