Recently, the new crown pneumonia epidemic in neighboring countries has rebounded rapidly. The pressure on foreign defense input in China has continued to increase, and the epidemic situation in Hainan and other places has attracted much attention. At the press conference on the joint prevention and control mechanism of the State Council on the 10th, relevant departments and experts conducted an authoritative interpretation of issues such as the current epidemic situation and the characteristics of the new mutant strains of Omiko.

More than 10,000 medical and health personnel support Hainan

According to Mi Feng, a spokesman for the National Health and Health Commission, the Sanya epidemic in Hainan is still in a high progress period. Xinjiang, Inner Mongolia, Guangdong and other provinces are still in the stage of rapid development, and there is a certain risk of social communication. Lhasa, Shigatse, Ali and other places in Tibet have recently reported a new local epidemic, and the risk of spreading spread is high. The local clustering epidemic in Gansu, Guangxi, Shandong and other provinces has been effectively controlled.

In order to control the epidemic as soon as possible, the national level has increased its support for Hainan. Guo Yanhong, a supervisory commissioner of the Medical Political and Health Management Bureau of the National Health and Health Commission, said that the comprehensive group of the State Council ’s joint prevention and control mechanism sent a working group to drive to Hainan to guide and support the prevention and control of the epidemic.

"We have dispatched more than 10,000 medical and health personnel from 19 provinces to support Hainan, transferred nearly 8,000 testing personnel, sampling personnel, and related testing equipment to increase Hainan's nucleic acid detection capacity to 2.4 million single -pipes per day. "Guo Yanhong said.

According to reports, the working group also instructed Hainan to do a good job in high -risk areas, conducting single -player single -person and one -family tube testing. The medium -risk area was detected by 1: 5 mixed pipes to reduce the 1:10 mixed pipe detection as much as possible The ratio, so as to detect the infection as soon as possible in a short period of time; at the same time, guide the local epidemic treatment efficiency, so as to check the inspection, the intervals, the acceptance, and the treatment should be treated.

Regarding the recent local epidemic situation in Tibet, Guo Yanhong introduced that the Tibet Autonomous Region actively promoted the preparations for the treatment of the epidemic in accordance with the national unified deployment and requirements. State experts and other national experts go to Tibet to guide the epidemic prevention and control. Through all -round counterpart support, Tibet can also apply for medical and epidemic prevention and control support in relevant provinces. Therefore, Tibet has the ability to deal with the current epidemic.

New mutant strains bring challenges but can still be effective

Recently, Omikon BA.5 strains and their evolutionary branches have been detected in many places in my country. How to effectively prevent control?

Dong Xiaoping, chief expert of the China Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, introduced that research at home and abroad shows that compared with other Omir Rongju mutations, the popular characteristics and communication characteristics of Omikon BA.5 mutant strains have not changed. Enhancement. At present, in accordance with the requirements of the new version of the prevention and control plan, in accordance with the requirements of the new version of the prevention and control scheme, based on the rapid and precise risk control and actively cope, almost every epidemic can be effectively controlled in a short time, which also reflects the ninth version of the prevention and control scheme for Austria. Mik Rong's mutant strains are effective.

"The primary key element in the treatment of epidemic situation is 'early discovery'." Dong Xiaoping said that the ninth edition of the prevention and control plan requires the monitoring and early warning of 8 major channels such as people, things, and environment, and pays attention to the monitoring and traceability issues of new mutant plants. Essence This version of the scheme more prominently reflects the concepts and measures and measures of precision scientific prevention and control, adheres to the general policy of "dynamic clearance", and puts forward higher requirements for the implementation of various normal measures and the quality of work.

Wang Huaqing, chief expert of the China Centers for Immunization Planning, said that the current vaccine used in my country is significant and clear. At present, the epidemic is still more harmful to the elderly who have not yet vaccinated the elderly, especially the elderly who have not yet vaccinated. It is recommended that the eligible elderly people in vaccination will be vaccinated as soon as possible, and the needle is strengthened in accordance with the regulations.

Continue to optimize measures to facilitate the safe and orderly travel of the masses

New query inquiries of nucleic acid detection results in other provinces and cities are uploaded to health treasure, and online nucleic acid information association services are launched. The province and national nucleic acid test database can be switched at any time ... Recently, the comprehensive group of the State Council's joint prevention and control mechanism requires nucleic acid detection results to recognize national mutual recognition nationwide. , Quickly organize implementation.

"These methods are for the convenience of the masses, and the current progress is smooth." Mi Feng introduced that the next step will further improve information sharing, optimize and improve health code management, and more convenient for the masses to travel safely and orderly.

At the same time, the ninth version of the prevention and control scheme optimizes the control cycle of entry -person, close contact, and the mid -to -high risk zone. Will the risk of epidemic dissemination increase?

"On the basis of strictly doing the management and control of relevant community personnel and nucleic acid monitoring, shortening the period of control will not increase the risk of epidemic dissemination." Said Han Mengjie, director of the AIDS prevention and control center of China Disease Control Center.

Han Mengjie said that from April to May 2022, the State Council's joint prevention and control mechanism comprehensive group launched a pilot research on the optimization of new crown pneumonia epidemic prevention and control measures in some areas of the country. Studies have found that the average incubation period of Omikon variants is shortened, mostly 2 days to 4 days, and most of them can be detected within 7 days. Based on the results of the research and the domestic prevention and control practice, the optimization of the ninth edition of the prevention and control plan takes into account the minimum cost and cost to achieve the best prevention and control effect.
