This study looks into the impact of public health emergencies on young people's interest and awareness of e-health. A questionnaire assessing e-health literacy was administered to 300 university students in China, and the data was analysed by employing SPSS 25.0. The data show that the COVID-19 pandemic increased students' interest in e-health and assisted to boost literacy levels. Nevertheless, there are still gaps, particularly in their capacity to find and successfully use credible internet health information. Addressing privacy and security problems with e-health tools, as well as creating targeted health education initiatives, are key steps towards bridging these gaps. These measures will enable students to better interpret and apply health information, boosting their self-management abilities and general confidence in controlling their own health.
