Abstract

Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is an international public health emergency that is of widespread concern around the world. Its global prevalence has had an impact on human society. After a period of active prevention and control, the spread of the epidemic has been effectively controlled in China. However, due to the continuous mutation of the virus, the task of epidemic prevention and control is still arduous. This paper considers how to effectively carry out epidemic prevention and control from the perspective of using statistical thinking, and gives some thoughts and suggestions on normalized observation of epidemic development, analysis of epidemic data, policy formulation and scientific research. It provides new inspiration for further improvement and strengthening of epidemic prevention and control.
