hygiene

Before liberation, traditional Chinese medicine was the main source of health care. Wu Kanghou, Geng Zongxian and others are famous doctors with certain attainments. Dr. Wu is not only devoted to traditional Chinese medicine, but also to western medicine. Before and after liberation in 1949, the combination of Chinese and Western medicine was used to treat diseases, which was very popular among the masses. As of the eve of liberation, there were 10 traditional Chinese medicine practitioners, 1 herbalist physician, and a small number of foreign "doctors" visiting the countryside to see and treat the local people. There were no medical, health, and health care institutions. There was a general lack of medicine, and it was very difficult for the masses to get sick. The environmental sanitation is even worse. The streets are filled with garbage, and the open-air cesspits are scattered around, which are dirty and can not be seen. In summer and autumn, mosquitoes and flies are rampant, and people's health is not guaranteed. After the founding of new China, the people's government attached great importance to medical and health services, concerned about people's health, organized individual doctors, and developed from joint clinics to health centers. Environmental sanitation develops synchronously with the construction of new market towns. The patriotic public health movement of renovating the environment and eliminating diseases has brought about great changes in the health outlook, which is basically close to the level of Hupu Town, an advanced health unit in China.

On November 19, 1993, it was named "advanced town for killing cockroaches". rural clinics: in 1969, cooperative medical stations of production teams (villages) were established one after another, later renamed as clinics, and now they are called cooperative medical stations.
