A few days ago, the joint prevention and control mechanism of the State Council held a press conference, which made it clear that the current goal of epidemic prevention and control is to protect health and prevent severe cases, and the top priority is to ensure the medical treatment of the masses. All over the country, relevant measures have been introduced to do a solid job in medical and health services and drug production and supply, laying a solid foundation for the full treatment of COVID-19 patients. It is the key to ensure the people's medical needs and improve the medical service capacity. Medical institutions are the main body of treatment for COVID-19 patients. Only by improving the service capacity of medical institutions can we make overall plans for epidemic prevention and control, patient treatment and daily medical work, and fully guarantee the medical needs of the masses. In the face of a major epidemic, the service capacity of the medical system is mainly reflected in two aspects: first, do a good job in prevention, reduce the number of infected people as much as possible, and make a good start; The second is to provide timely and effective medical treatment for the infected. At the level of prevention, we will continue to promote vaccination and build a solid epidemic prevention barrier for all. It is more necessary and urgent to improve the vaccination rate in order to achieve full coverage of the appropriate vaccination population, especially for the elderly and other high-risk groups. All localities should further scientifically determine the vaccination taboos, standardize the implementation of vaccination, and enhance medical treatment security, so as to promote qualified people to actively take the initiative to vaccinate as soon as possible, and protect the health of the masses. At the rescue level, we will continue to optimize the medical service process and smooth the referral and docking channels. According to statistics, as of 12:00 on December 14, more than 14000 fever clinics were set up in hospitals above the second level nationwide, and more than 33000 fever clinics or clinics were set up in grass-roots medical and health institutions. For some time, by adding corresponding reception areas and consulting rooms, implementing hierarchical and classified diagnosis and treatment strategies, promoting Internet medical services and other measures, all regions have continued to expand and transform critical care resources, build a more reasonable and orderly medical order, and effectively improve the efficiency and continuity of medical services. The realization of up and down linkage and effective treatment will enable the masses to enjoy more timely, effective and convenient medical services. It is fundamental to ensure the demand of people for drugs and increase the supply of drugs in the market. Recently, the increase in the number of patients has brought about a surge in drug demand, posing a higher challenge to the production capacity of related drugs. Only by focusing on the key points and taking multiple measures, can we release the production capacity of related drugs, make every effort to ensure stable production and meet production requirements, and try to alleviate the problem of people's difficulty in buying drugs. In terms of policy, we should give full play to the "white list" management effect of relevant drug manufacturers and key supporting enterprises to ensure stable and orderly production and supply; In terms of technology, we will help enterprises formulate the "one drug, one policy" production increase and capacity expansion plan, guide enterprises to improve production technology and improve production quality and efficiency; In terms of supply, we adhere to the principle of patient priority and accurate delivery, and achieve efficient and reasonable allocation of drug resources by strengthening the construction of drug supply and online drug purchasing platforms in key places. At present, epidemic prevention and control is faced with new situations and tasks, and the focus of prevention and control has also changed. To ensure that the prevention and control measures are adjusted accurately and orderly, to effectively guarantee the demand of the people for medical treatment and drugs, and to truly solve the urgent problems of the people, will enable us to pass the epidemic peak more smoothly.
