Epidemic prevention and control tests the ability of grassroots governance modernization
"earth policy" isolation from Beijing staff prevention and control is difficult to achieve a national "one game"

"Integrating factors such as risk prevention and control, resumption of production and the demand for mass travel, on the basis of continuing to maintain strict control of personnel in high- and medium-risk areas, starting from 0:00 on July 4, personnel from low-risk areas of the city will leave Beijing. It is also required to hold a negative nucleic acid test certificate."
On July 3, Pan Xuhong, deputy director of the Beijing Municipal Public Security Bureau, announced at the 140th regular press conference for epidemic prevention and control that Yan Lin (pseudonym) was very excited. But soon, she was splashed with cold water.
Yan Lin lives in Xiangsong District, Green Land, Honggutan District, Nanchang City, Jiangxi Province. She came to Beijing last October in order to take care of her children in Beijing. Due to an outbreak of new pneumonia at the end of last year, she had to stay in Beijing so far. Hearing the news that people in low-risk areas no longer need to hold a negative nucleic acid test certificate when they leave Beijing, they have been staying in Yanlin, a low-risk area in Beijing’s Chaoyang District, and immediately gave outbreak prevention and control to the Hongjiaozhou Management Office where Ludi Xiangsong Community is located. The headquarters called to consult. The other party told her, "Even if Beijing requires that it does not need to hold a negative certificate, it still needs to perform nucleic acid testing when it arrives in Nanchang, and it is necessary to obey Nanchang's management policy when coming to Nanchang."
Yan Lin's experience is not unique. In fact, a reporter from the Legal Daily found that after Beijing issued the above notice, many other places in the country did not change their local prevention and control measures. Some places even require that, even if they hold a negative nucleic acid test within 7 days before leaving Beijing, they must be quarantined or isolated at home and monitored for health.
Experts interviewed by a reporter from Legal Daily believe that the epidemic prevention and control especially test the modernization of the local government's governance capabilities. Fighting the "epidemic" requires a "game of chess" across the country, and the implementation of the "local policy" in each local government will give public life and economic organizations resumption of work. Resumption of production brings great inconvenience, we should insist on the combination of legal control and scientific control, make full use of big data information technology, and implement precise control.
Disguised isolation
Two nucleic acid tests are required
On July 4, a reporter from Legal Daily combed the epidemic prevention and control measures in 30 other provinces (autonomous regions and municipalities directly under the Central Government) other than Beijing and found that the vast majority of localities have not released the "Beijing low-risk areas personnel can no longer hold out of Beijing There is a related notice of negative nucleic acid test.
Taking Nanchang City as an example, local epidemic prevention and control personnel told the "Legal System Daily" reporter: "No new notice has been issued yet, and it is still necessary to carry a nucleic acid test negative certificate according to the previous policy."
According to the previous policy, Nanchang City implements zoning and grading control, requiring a negative nucleic acid test within 7 days before leaving Beijing. After arriving in Nanchang, the nucleic acid test needs to be conducted again and reported to the districts and counties. There is no need for centralized isolation, but whether home monitoring needs to be consulted District. However, according to Lin, she called the Greenland Xiangsong community on June 25 and learned that in addition to the need for two nucleic acid tests, it also had to be quarantined for 14 days.
"The relevant person in charge of the community said that as long as they come back from Beijing, they must be segregated centrally, and cannot be segregated at home. Now they are all precisely controlled. Why do people who have always been in low-risk areas still want to be segregated?" The performance of the lazy government of the local government department, "Obviously, it can be accurately controlled, and it is necessary to implement a "one size fits all"".
On July 4, a reporter from the Legal Daily called the epidemic prevention and control headquarters of the Hongjiaozhou Management Office. The other party replied: "At present, there are changes in the policy. Previously it was two tests. To be isolated, now only nucleic acid tests are required. On the day of arrival Do the testing first, and try to avoid moving during the time period after the testing and other results are completed, and do not force isolation."
In this regard, Yan Lin, an expert in the field of biomedicine, believes that this move is actually a disguised isolation, and that the two nucleic acid tests are not scientific. If the results of the test in Beijing are obtained on the same day, they will go to Nanchang and arrive on the same day, and then do the nucleic acid test. It is impossible to detect different results from Beijing. "Even if the virus is infected during the trip, it cannot be detected on the same day, because the virus must be propagated to a certain concentration in the body to be detected."
Lin Hongchao, director of the Emergency Management Law and Policy Research Base of China University of Political Science and Law, also believes that the necessity of conducting two nucleic acid tests in a short period of time is really not necessary, and the test results will basically not change. "The second test is not the result on the spot. It may have to stay for a day or two. In fact, it is still a kind of isolation."
The reality is that there are many places that require two nucleic acid tests.
For example, Guizhou requires people in Beijing, Wuhan and other high-risk areas to provide a green health code and a negative nucleic acid test result within 7 days. After arriving in Guizhou, perform a nucleic acid test again. If the result is negative, it can be released without further isolation; To provide the green code and the nucleic acid test results within 7 days, you must quarantine for 14 days after entering Guizhou, during which you need to do two nucleic acid tests. For people from low-risk areas in Beijing, just provide the green code and the temperature is normal.
Shanghai requires that all persons who come to or return to Shanghai from or through high-risk areas of the domestic epidemic should conduct a 14-day centralized isolation health observation and conduct two new coronavirus nucleic acid tests; those who come from or pass through risk areas must be implemented 14 Strict community health management, two new crest virus nucleic acid tests, and a reporting system.
Overreaction
Cause the public to be at a loss
It is worth noting that on June 19, the Comprehensive Group of the Joint Defense and Joint Control Mechanism of the State Council issued the "Notice on Doing a Good Job in Health Management Services for New Coronary Pneumonia for Persons Leaving Beijing," requiring that they hold a negative nucleic acid test certificate or be able to present it within 7 days before leaving Beijing. Persons leaving Beijing who have a healthy peer code “green code” with negative nucleic acid test information can flow freely and orderly after arriving at their destinations under the premise of normal temperature measurement and personal protection. Localities and departments shall not set other restrictions condition.
However, a reporter from the Legal Daily learned that since the above-mentioned notice was issued, as of July 3, most areas still exercised varying degrees of control over personnel leaving Beijing with a negative nucleic acid test or "green code" within 7 days. , And even require centralized isolation or home isolation.
For example, the Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region requires all personnel from Beijing to comply with local staff arrangements for 14-day centralized isolation and nucleic acid testing. In Jinan City, Shandong Province and Zhengzhou City, Henan Province, in addition to 14-day home isolation and nucleic acid testing, personnel in high- and medium-risk streets (towns) must also be tested for serum antibodies.
Linying County, Henan Province, also previously required 14-day home control measures for people from other low-risk areas in Beijing. A reporter from the Legal Daily called the Linying County Epidemic Prevention and Control Headquarters on July 6 to learn that people coming from low-risk areas no longer need to be quarantined, but 14-day health monitoring is required.
However, Ruan Qiao (pseudonym), who lives in a low-risk area in Chaoyang District, Beijing, recently planned to go to Jinxiu Tiandi Community, Chengguan Town, Linying County. When he consulted with his community on July 7, he was still told to go home for 14 days. isolation.
Regarding this phenomenon, Deng Liqiang, director of the Legal Department of the Chinese Medical Doctors Association, believes that although the emphasis on epidemic prevention in various places is worthy of recognition, it is still too late. The Law on the Prevention and Control of Infectious Diseases stipulates that patients with Type A infectious diseases and suspected Type A infectious diseases should be treated in isolation, and those who have close contacts should be observed. The reality is that based on this rule, prevention and control measures are increased blindly. For example, in some places, regardless of whether or not people leaving Beijing hold a 7-day negative test result, they require isolation, and most of them cannot find a basis.
In Deng Liqiang's view, the implementation of the "one size fits all" approach in some places can be understood as overreaction by the local government and is also a manifestation of lazy politics. In some places, there are different situations of different community policies, which will cause the public to be at a loss and "don't know who to listen to".
Wang Cailiang, a consultant to the All-China Lawyers Association’s Constitutional and Administrative Law Professional Committee, believes that this phenomenon indicates that the country has not yet achieved a national “game of chess” in the prevention and control of epidemics, which has caused inconvenience to public life and economic organizations to resume work and resume production. "When you leave Beijing, you don’t need a negative nucleic acid test certificate, but you can’t get in because you don’t have a negative nucleic acid test certificate, or you need to test again even if you hold the certificate, or even isolate it. People cause serious inconvenience."
Prevention and control according to law
Strictly abide by the principle of proportionality
There is still another question that the public is concerned about: the current epidemic prevention is supported by big data, and it is clear whether there are risks. But why do some places do not believe in science, can big data really play a role in precise prevention and control?
In this regard, Wang Cailiang believes that big data is enough to find out whether the people leaving Beijing come from high-risk areas, whether they are close contacts or virus carriers, but some places do not pay attention to advanced technology, there may be two reasons behind it: One is disrespect The unified command of the national epidemic prevention and control coordination mechanism is innovative and increases citizens' obligations. Second, local decision makers do not understand the role of health codes and big data support and make wrong choices.
Wang Cailiang suggested that all localities should combine legal prevention and control with scientific prevention and control. When determining prevention and control measures, there must be a legal basis and abide by the principle of proportionality, that is, these measures will not arbitrarily expand or increase the obligations of citizens within the appropriate scope. At the same time, we must respect science and follow the advice of professionals.
Deng Liqiang suggested that the epidemic prevention and control should be based on the overall layout of the joint prevention and control mechanism of the State Council and the National Health and Health Commission; the epidemic prevention should not be excessive, the prevention and control of classification should be precise, and the "one size fits all" should not be implemented.
In Lin Hongchao's view, precise prevention and control actually include two aspects, namely, "find people quickly" and "select others quickly". The former can use communication to locate the activity trajectory, and the latter can improve the detection ability. At present, the prerequisites for implementing precise prevention and control are already in place, so all localities should make full use of informatization to prevent epidemic.
“This time Beijing’s epidemic prevention is more precise and sensitive. For example, middle and high-risk areas are divided by towns and streets to minimize negative impacts; after the middle and high-risk levels are assigned, they are quickly adjusted according to the development of the epidemic situation. However, the strength of the measures can be more flexible than that of Beijing, and the intensity of prevention and control can be lower. As a capital city, Beijing’s prevention and control measures are added, and there is no need to draw a gourd in other places.” Lin Hongchao said.
After Beijing issued the notice that “people in low-risk areas no longer require a negative nucleic acid test certificate”, the response was slower in various areas. Lin Hongchao believes that “it is understandable that response time is required in various places, but Beijing also needs to take the initiative Connect and communicate with the new policy. However, in order to adjust the policies across the country, the State Council’s joint defense and joint control mechanism may also be required to issue policies.”
And this long reaction time is a torment for Yan Lin. On the morning of July 7th, she called the community again to confirm that she could go home. Before returning home, she must report to the community and submit her Beijing address, Nanchang address, ID photo, Beijing health code, ticket, action track, etc. Information, and even provide photos of real estate certificates.
"I don't know if I need to add information later. Fortunately, I have a real estate certificate in hand. If I didn't bring it when I left Nanchang?" Yan Lin smiled bitterly.
