The virus in the body has been removed, and it is not harmful to others. Experts said that--

Normal life of patients with new crown pneumonia rehabilitation is no problem

According to the latest data from the National Health Commission on March 10, of the more than 80,000 cases of newly diagnosed pneumonia, more than 58,000 were cured. However, there have been media reports recently that some rehabilitated patients have finally been discharged from the virus, but have suffered from abnormal eyes and even unfair treatment, such as being exposed to privacy and being fired by the unit.

"Rehabilitated patients with new crown pneumonia will not cause harm to others." Huang Bo, a professor in the Department of Immunology of the Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences and Peking Union Medical College, and vice chairman of the Chinese Immunological Society, told reporters in Science and Technology Daily that rehabilitation means that the body's immune system has turned the virus Clear, people do not need to evade, let alone discriminate patients discharged, but should help and care for them.

Wang Jing, chief physician of the Department of Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine, Beijing Chaoyang Hospital, also said in an interview that patients with new coronary pneumonia will be re-examined in professional medical institutions after discharge. During this period, strict closed home isolation or isolation at designated isolation points will be implemented. . After several visits and follow-up inspections by medical institutions, and showed that the discharged patients with normal indicators, the virus in the body has basically been killed, the virus has stopped replicating, and it will not spread, and it can return to normal life. There is no need to panic. .

There is no virus replication and transmission in the body, and the recovered people are not infectious

"Light patients and normal patients recover very well after being discharged because their symptoms are light and they get better quickly. There will be no sequelae in the lungs after recovery, and the healing effect is basically complete recovery." Wang Jing said.

Some severe and critically ill patients may have symptoms such as increased inflammation or respiratory failure due to the disease, which affects multiple organs such as the lungs, liver, kidneys, and heart. Therefore, the treatment process is more complicated and recovery will be relatively slow. . After such patients recover, some will have the sequelae of pulmonary interstitial fibrosis, which affects the patient's lung function or occasionally causes a dry cough, but there will be no excretion, replication and transmission of the virus, so it is not infectious. Wang Jing said that after the improvement of ordinary patients with severe A and B streams, residual pulmonary interstitial fibrosis is also common. "It's like there is inflammation on the skin, and a scar will be left in the future."

Huang Bo said that the cure and recovery of patients with new coronary pneumonia means that the body's immune system has eliminated the virus. The immune system not only generates neutralizing antibodies to bind the virus, preventing the virus from entering the cells, but also activates virus-specific T cells. By attacking the virus-infected cells, the virus that has entered the cells is eliminated, thereby eradicating the virus.

Isolation and review after discharge, complete recovery and return to society

Wang Jing introduced that it meets the 4 discharge standards proposed by the country ’s latest 7th edition of the new coronary pneumonia diagnosis and treatment plan, that is, the body temperature is normal for more than 3 days, the respiratory symptoms are significantly improved, the pulmonary imaging is significantly improved, and the nucleic acid test is negative for two consecutive times. Only cured patients can be discharged from the designated treatment hospital.

The doctor of respiratory department at the designated hospital responsible for the review of patients with new coronary pneumonia told reporters that the recovered patients will be kept at home or isolated in isolation after being discharged, and will be followed up closely and reviewed closely. "Patients are required to go to designated hospitals to review lung CT, nucleic acids, and blood routines in the second and fourth weeks after discharge. Patients who have shown complete recovery can return to normal work and life without any impact on others . "

Regarding the phenomenon of "rejuvenation" of some patients after being discharged for a period of time, Wang Jing believes that it may actually be that the patient has not fully recovered, and false negatives of nucleic acid test results exist, but this is very rare. "This type of patient does not need to be too nervous. The doctor will closely monitor the patient after he is discharged. When the patient's inflammation completely disappears and the results of multiple nucleic acid tests are negative, the doctor will carefully return him to work. Close supervision of such patients. "

Wang Jing said that due to the high contagion of new crown pneumonia, the public ’s panic is understandable. Now the overall epidemic situation is improving. Work resumed and resumed in all parts of the country. The rehabilitation patients are in good health. This is very convincing. I believe Everyone's panic will gradually subside.

She suggested that the rehabilitated person continue to be isolated at home, pay attention to diet, take good care of the body, maintain a positive attitude, and prepare for normal work and life. For the public, although the epidemic situation is terrible, during this period, everyone has developed the habit of washing hands and wearing face masks, realizing that dinners must be intimate and intimate, and that wild animals should not be eaten. It has also improved the concept of public health, which is beneficial Prevention and control of infectious diseases in the future.
