Mi Feng, spokesperson of the National Health and Wellness Commission and deputy director of the Propaganda Department, said that at present, China is still facing the dual risks of importing overseas epidemics and spreading local epidemics, and the situation of prevention and control is still severe and complicated.
It is necessary to adhere to the principle of "people-oriented, life first", the general strategy of "external defense investment, internal defense rebound" and the general policy of "dynamic clearing", coordinate the prevention and control of epidemic situation and economic and social development, resolutely implement the "four early", and achieve early detection, rapid disposal and prevention of spillover.
It is necessary to strictly implement the ninth edition of the prevention and control plan and the requirements of "nine prohibitions", improve the level of scientific and precise prevention and control, effectively protect the normal production and living order of the masses, prevent simplification and "one size fits all", and resolutely rectify "layers of overweight". For typical cases, the joint prevention and control mechanism of the State Council will intensify the notification and exposure.
CCTV reporter: Recently, some places have adjusted their prevention and control measures. For example, some railway sections no longer check passenger nucleic acid certificates, and some provinces can pass through the province as long as they have green codes. It has been made clear in some places that nucleic acid testing should be done at one's own expense. Does this mean that China's prevention and control policies will be adjusted in the near future?
Hu Xiang, the second-level inspector of the Department of Communication Prevention of the National CDC: Since the outbreak of the COVID-19 epidemic, we have always adhered to the concept of people-oriented and life-first, fully implemented the general strategy of "external defense investment and internal defense rebound" and the general policy of "dynamic removal", and in accordance with the work requirements of "timely detection, rapid disposal, precise control and effective treatment", according to the characteristics of virus variation and the situation of epidemic prevention and control, we have continuously and dynamically optimized and adjusted prevention and control strategies and measures, effectively protecting people's lives. Practice has proved that our epidemic prevention and control strategy and a series of strategic measures are completely correct and the most economical and effective.
At present, the international epidemic situation has ushered in a new winter epidemic season, and the epidemic situation in some parts of China has an obvious rebound trend. Overlapping with the risks of other respiratory diseases such as influenza, the epidemic situation is more severe and complicated. We unswervingly adhere to the general policy of "dynamic zero clearing", organize experts to continuously optimize and improve epidemic prevention and control measures according to the changes in virus incubation period, transmission power and pathogenicity, improve the level of scientific and accurate prevention and control, and further coordinate epidemic prevention and control with economic and social development.
Xinhua News Agency reporter: Previously, the official website National Health and Wellness Commission opened a public message board on "Nine Prohibitions" for epidemic prevention and control. What are the problems that the masses have reflected more? How are these problems rectified and solved?
Tong Jia, the second-level inspector of the Supervision Department of the National Bureau of Disease Control and Prevention: We have sorted out some recent reactions from the masses, mainly focusing on the following three aspects: First, restrictive measures such as compulsory persuasion and isolation have been taken for people from low-risk areas. There are many such complaints in Daqing City, Heilongjiang Province and Taiyuan City, Shanxi Province. The second is to expand the scope of travel restrictions from medium and high-risk areas to other areas at will. There are many such complaints in Yuncheng City, Shanxi Province and Zhengzhou City, Henan Province. The third is to expand the scope of risk groups taking isolation control measures at will, and there are many such complaints in Shenzhen, Guangdong.
The National Health and Wellness Commission and the National Bureau for Disease Control and Prevention attach great importance to complaints from the masses, and promptly turn over the problems reflected by the masses every day and urge local authorities to check and handle them. In addition, we also found that in addition to violating the "nine prohibitions", some new forms of handling the epidemic have emerged in some places, such as simplification, across the board, and "layer by layer overweight". The first is to charge for isolated places. Such as Bijie City in Guizhou Province and Nanchong City in Sichuan Province. The second is to be silent at will and close the city instead of controlling it. Such as Zhengzhou City, Henan Province. In addition, public opinion monitoring found that in some areas, people were restricted to travel in the form of coded pop-ups. We attach great importance to the above problems and carry out rectification at the same time.
Simplicity, across-the-board application and "layer by layer overweight" in prevention and control seriously violate the requirements of scientific and accurate prevention and control, efficient coordination of epidemic prevention and control and economic development, and are serious formalism and bureaucracy. We must resolutely, scientifically and accurately do a good job in the prevention and control of the current epidemic situation, and resolutely clean up and stop all forms of simplification, one-size-fits-all and "layer-by-layer overweight" behavior. Relevant departments will promptly notify and urge the rectification. If the rectification is not in place and is not implemented, it will be seriously accountable according to the law.
People's Daily reporter: Recently, there are more newly infected people in Inner Mongolia and Xinjiang, and the epidemic situation in Guangdong and Henan has also attracted much attention from the society. What is the development trend of the epidemic from a national perspective?
Hu Xiang, second-level inspector of the Department of Communication and Prevention of the National Center for Disease Control and Prevention: Recently, the number of newly reported positive infections in China has fluctuated and increased, and the epidemic situation continues to show the characteristics of multiple points, wide areas and multiple occurrences. The situation is grim and complicated. Influenced by the powerful spreading ability and covert spreading of Omicron evolutionary branch, the cross-provincial epidemic situation increased, and the old and new epidemic situations overlapped in many places. Aggregation epidemic occurred in capital cities such as Urumqi, Hohhot, Guangzhou, Zhengzhou, Fuzhou and Lanzhou, and the epidemic rebounded in some areas.
At present, Xinjiang and Inner Mongolia have achieved initial results in responding to the epidemic. The local epidemic situation in Guangdong, Fujian, Heilongjiang, Hebei and Henan is gradually stabilizing, and the epidemic situation in other provinces is distributed in many places, and the national epidemic situation is generally controllable. However, it should be pointed out that due to the multiple pressures of imported COVID-19 epidemic, the spread of local epidemic and the high incidence of seasonal diseases such as influenza in autumn and winter, the risk of clustering epidemic in COVID-19 still exists, and there is the possibility of superposition of COVID-19 epidemic and influenza epidemic.
The National Health and Wellness Commission and the National Bureau for Disease Control and Prevention will continue to guide all localities, adhere to the general strategy of "external defense investment, internal defense rebound" and the general policy of "dynamic clearing", strictly implement various measures for epidemic prevention and control scientifically and accurately, and rapidly and continuously strengthen the handling of local clustered epidemics.
China Education TV reporter: At present, there are many epidemic situations in China. At the same time, we are concerned that some students reported on the Internet that the school was "closed" due to the epidemic. How to guide colleges and universities to prevent and control the epidemic scientifically and accurately, and to ensure the normal study and life of teachers and students to the maximum extent?
Liu, deputy director of the Department of Physical Education, Health and Arts of the Ministry of Education and first-class inspector: Since the fall semester this year, the education system has conscientiously implemented the national major policies and new requirements for epidemic prevention and control, and adjusted and optimized various measures for epidemic prevention and control in colleges and universities according to the dynamic situation. Epidemic prevention and control and education work have developed in harmony. At present, the epidemic situation in colleges and universities is generally stable and controllable, and the campus environment is generally safe and orderly.
165438+1October 3, the Ministry of Education just held a video dispatching meeting on epidemic prevention and control in the national education system again, which clarified the general requirements for scientific and accurate prevention and control of campus epidemic: to prevent ineffective prevention and control and relax the importation of campus epidemic; It is also necessary to prevent excessive epidemic prevention and "layers of overweight" from affecting the life, study and work of teachers and students. On the basis of comprehensive, scientific and accurate prevention and control, we will adjust and optimize the prevention and control measures of campus epidemic situation from five aspects:
The first is to scientifically implement normal prevention and control. Continue to implement the ninth edition of the National Epidemic Prevention and Control Program and the sixth edition of the COVID-19 Epidemic Prevention and Control Technical Program in colleges and universities, adhere to the three defenses of people, things and environment, prevent the epidemic from entering the campus, prevent the epidemic from spreading on the campus, earnestly safeguard the health and safety of teachers and students, and continuously improve the scientific, accurate and humanized level of epidemic prevention and control. Campus management can neither be "trusted" nor "released".
Second, dynamically adjust education and teaching. Precise arrangement of education and teaching, dynamic and orderly transition between offline teaching and online teaching. When there is no epidemic, try to ensure offline teaching; When an epidemic really needs online teaching, we should ensure the quality of education and reduce the impact of the epidemic on the normal education and teaching order.
Third, constantly optimize campus services. Coordinate the implementation of epidemic prevention and control and campus service guarantee. Effectively guarantee the supply of campus living materials, epidemic prevention materials and teaching materials; Focusing on improving the quality of catering services and standardizing the prices of campus commodities, we will comprehensively optimize various campus management services such as teaching, scientific research, sports, accommodation, medical care and express delivery, and create a good and comfortable living, learning and working environment.
Fourth, respond to students' concerns in a timely manner. Smooth the channels for teachers and students to reflect their demands and improve the feedback mechanism for solving problems. Encourage schools to "handle complaints immediately", attach great importance to it, respond in time, and properly solve the "urgent problems" between teachers and students. At the same time, guide teachers and students to be firm in the spirit of resistance, understand, cooperate and support the school to implement various measures for epidemic prevention and control, and Qi Xin will work together to overcome the difficulties.
Fifth, the system has improved the emergency response capability. Adhere to prevention and implement the requirements of "four early". The school has continuously improved the emergency plan and strengthened the construction of emergency guarantee mechanism, improved the ability of monitoring, early warning and disposal of epidemic situation in the school, adhered to joint prevention and control, and implemented the responsibilities of the four parties. The school continues to strive for priority protection and inclined support from the relevant departments of the territory in terms of materials, policies and professional services. In the event of a campus epidemic, with the support of the relevant departments of the territory, the school will quickly control the epidemic, accurately judge, quickly seal up, quickly solve, and orderly transfer to the normal campus.
Hong Kong Economic Herald reporter: Flu mostly occurs in autumn and winter. How to distinguish COVID-19, common cold and influenza? What if you have a fever?
Wang Guiqiang, Director of Infectious Diseases Department of Peking University First Hospital: Infection, cold and flu in COVID-19 are all viral diseases of respiratory tract, but they still have many differences, some commonalities and some differences.
First, pathogens. The common cold is caused by some viruses, such as rhinovirus; Influenza is caused by influenza virus; COVID-19 is COVID-19. Second, from the perspective of infectivity. A cold is not contagious. When the resistance drops, some viruses that settle in the upper respiratory tract will replicate and cause symptoms. Both influenza and COVID-19 are contagious, and COVID-19 is obviously more contagious than influenza. Third, from the infection site, the common cold is generally in the upper respiratory tract and generally does not cause pneumonia. Most influenza also occurs in the upper respiratory tract. Very few elderly people with basic diseases may involve the lungs. However, COVID-19 can cause pneumonia, and COVID-19 infection can aggravate a series of basic diseases. This is a very important feature of COVID-19, so we can't ignore it. Fourth, from the perspective of the occurrence season. Colds have no seasonality and can occur all year round, because local virus reproduction will lead to decreased resistance and symptoms. Influenza mainly occurs in autumn and winter, and can occur all year round in COVID-19, but autumn and winter will be the season of high incidence, because there are more indoor activities and the air is not circulated. Furthermore, from the clinical manifestations, the cold is relatively mild, generally there will be some symptoms of the upper respiratory tract, such as runny nose, stuffy nose, etc., and some individuals will have some low fever and few high fever. Influenza often has systemic symptoms, such as headache, fever, sore throat, muscle and joint pain. COVID-19 may have fever, muscle and joint pain, cough, decreased sense of smell and taste after infection, and may also induce the aggravation of basic diseases, especially for the elderly. Fifth, in terms of treatment, if the common cold is not treated, it is its own limitation. It usually takes 1-3 days, and the time when the resistance is good will pass. We often tell patients to drink more water and pay attention to rest. Influenza is a specific drug, and antiviral treatment can relieve symptoms and reduce the occurrence of further complications. At present, there are antiviral drugs in COVID-19. It is more important to actively treat COVID-19, especially the elderly with basic diseases, and intervene as early as possible to avoid the deterioration of the disease, including antiviral therapy, oxygen therapy, traditional Chinese medicine and other comprehensive treatments.
In a word, under the epidemic situation in COVID-19, these three diseases have similarities, but they are quite different. Therefore, we emphasize that once you have a fever and other symptoms, you must go to the hospital to see a doctor to identify whether it is COVID-19 or the flu. If it is influenza, targeted treatment is a problem. COVID-19 is not only an early intervention of antiviral treatment, but also isolated to avoid the risk of further transmission. At the same time, we should closely monitor the changes of the disease to prevent it from developing into a serious disease, including the risk of aggravation of the basic disease.
