Since the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic, the Chinese Society of Food Science and Technology (CSFST) has been at the forefront of the fight against the virus. In response to the China Association for Science and Technology (CAST) call, the CSFST has leveraged its organizational strengths and expert resources to unite and lead the majority of scientific and technological workers in combating the pandemic. Their efforts have played a crucial role in epidemic prevention, control, and the resumption of work and production nationwide.
On the occasion of the fourth National Science and Technology Workers Day, and amid ongoing reforms within CAST, the CSFST is launching a new column titled “The Society’s Fight Against the Epidemic.” This initiative aims to highlight the exemplary deeds of the National Society, its leaders, staff, and members during this challenging time. We invite you to stay tuned for these inspiring stories.
The Party Committee of the Chinese Society of Food Science and Technology has emphasized this initiative significantly. They swiftly communicated the Notice of the CPC Central Committee on strengthening the Party’s leadership and providing a strong political guarantee for winning the battle against the pandemic. By conscientiously implementing the directives of General Secretary Xi Jinping and adhering to the unified deployment of the Central Committee, the CSFST has made the fight against the pandemic its top priority. This dedication underscores the organization’s commitment to ensuring food safety and supply during these critical times, aligning with the specific requirements set forth by the China Association for Science and Technology.
