China to publicize sanitation standards (Xinhua) Updated: 2005-09-13 19:35 China has set up thousands of
sanitary standards for public life, to which people can get free access on
internet, an official with Ministry of Health (MOH) was quoted as saying by
Tuesday's Beijing News.
Huo Xiaojun, an official in charge of laws and regulations with the MOH, said
so far the MOH has drafted and issued more than 1,800 items of sanitary
standards covering food, environment, radiation, occupational diseases and
cosmetics.
Huo said by the end of this year, the standards will be publicized on the
official website of the MOH, namely, www.moh.gov.cn. People can look up the
standards free of charge.
Gu Jingyu, an MOH official in charge of standardization, revealed the MOH is
now revising diagnosis standards on 37 kinds of infectious diseases. In the
meantime, MOH is also participating in setting up a standard on cell phone
radiation.
At present, China has no cell phone radiation standard since consumption of
cell phones in China still heavily relies on imports from Europe and the United
States, whose products have different standards.
