Abstract
In the era of holistic health, the concept of health is accelerating its shift from a disease-centered to a health-centered orientation, and the relationship between individual health and population health is likewise facing new changes. From the perspective of holistic health humanities, individual health and population health are not isolated from each other; instead, they present threefold relationships of mutual embedding including the coexistence of the body, humanistic shaping and practical symbiosis. This has constructed a health responsibility ethics system wherein the responsibilities of different subjects—both individual and collective—are mutually inter-embedded and hierarchically progressive, ultimately oriented toward the construction of a global community of health for all and the free and comprehensive development of human beings. This provides important intellectual support for promoting the formation of a healthy synergy between individuals and population, as well as accelerating the construction of a Healthy China and advancing global health governance.
