Promote vaccination and do a good job of personal protection
2022-12-20
With the weakening of the pathogenicity of Omicron, the popularization of vaccination and the accumulation of prevention and control experience, the epidemic prevention and control in China is facing new situations and tasks. At present, there are a large number of people infected with the variant strain of Omicron, and many people have achieved self-healing at home under the guidance of scientific methods. Due to the large population base in China, the risk of virus transmission cannot be underestimated. The pathogenicity of Omicron virus is greatly reduced, but it does not mean that "early yang" is good. Therefore, it is still of practical significance to encourage people to do a good job in personal protection and scientific prevention and control in the future. A few days ago, Zhong Nanshan, an academician of the CAE Member and a famous respiratory expert, made a professional judgment: "The idea that 'early is also positive, late is also positive, it is better to be positive together' is not advisable." Because a large area of infection in a short time will affect the normal social order, and easily lead to the emergence of new variants. In fact, due to the large number of people infected with the virus recently, the demand for medical treatment and medication has greatly increased. In order to meet the needs of the people, medical personnel in many places have shouldered the pressure to maintain the order of medical treatment. However, even so, there is still a gap in the supply of medical services, and the pressure of medical forces such as fever clinics, emergency services and 120 first aid is still high. In addition to the timely allocation of medical personnel from other departments and recruitment of retired medical personnel in the past five years, the general public can also make their own contributions to this. The increase in demand for medical treatment is directly related to the increase in the number of infected people. If people do a good job of protection to reduce the possibility of infection, they can gain more preparation time for the medical system. In addition, the general public, especially young and middle-aged people, should also keep calm after infection, and take medicine as needed at home calmly when there are no special symptoms. In this way, more fever outpatient and emergency treatment resources will be released to the elderly patients who need more, which is not only the care of the elderly, but also the care of medical personnel. Encourage and advocate people to do a good job in personal protection. In addition to wearing masks and hand disinfection in daily travel, the key is to continue to promote vaccination. A fact that cannot be ignored is that although the pathogenicity of the Omicron strain has been greatly weakened, its transmission capacity has been greatly enhanced. Based on China's huge population base, the extremely fast transmission speed may lead to a large number of infected people. Even though the severity rate and mortality rate are very low, the number of people at risk cannot be underestimated, and vaccination is still necessary to protect key populations. Especially for the elderly and vulnerable groups, promoting vaccination remains the top priority of epidemic prevention and control. Vaccination can effectively prevent severe diseases, and more than three doses of vaccine can strengthen the protection of these groups. Previously, the "New Ten Rules" for optimizing the implementation of epidemic prevention and control released by the Comprehensive Group of Joint Prevention and Control Mechanism of the State Council pointed out that it is necessary to speed up the promotion of COVID-19 vaccination for the elderly to protect people's life safety and health to the greatest extent. Vaccination is the most important choice for countries around the world to scientifically respond to the epidemic and protect the health of their own people. The Central Economic Work Conference just held put forward that we should better coordinate the prevention and control of the epidemic and economic and social development, optimize the prevention and control measures of the epidemic according to the time and situation, earnestly implement various measures for the prevention and control of the epidemic in the new stage, ensure the medical treatment of the masses, and focus on the prevention and control of the elderly and groups suffering from basic diseases,
