Abstract
Over the past three years, China has implemented rapid, vigorous, and coordinated control measures to limit the spread of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) effectively. These measures include active containment, graded management, rational resource allocation, rapid contact tracing and disposal, and targeted vaccination of key populations. These efforts have contributed to the prompt and effective control of outbreaks, protecting the health and well-being of older adults. This review provides a comprehensive summary of the changes in China's COVID-19 prevention and control experiences and other public health measures since the outbreak of the pandemic, and assesses their impact on older adults. It may serve as a valuable reference for future epidemic prevention and control efforts.
