Public health emergencies are not individual accidental phenomena, because of the different social environment, different influence scope and different severity. Critical linguistics and critical discourse analysis aim to analyze the relationship between language, rights and ideology, and the role of language in social and cultural evolution. Media discourse of public health emergencies not only has the same communication effect and influence as traditional news discourse, but also has the characteristics of intensiveness, intertextuality and evaluation. From the perspective of critical discourse analysis, this paper deeply analyzes the verbal communication strategies and discourse features of public health emergencies, so as to deepen the linguistic understanding of this new discourse.
