Why is there such a tense quarantine situation in this wave of epidemics?
In this regard, Zhang Wenhong said that the reason for taking such tight measures is that the current domestic medical resources are not so sufficient: "The main reason for the low mortality rate in mainland China is that the local medical resources are very sufficient."
He explained that, taking Shanghai as an example, even if one case occurred in Shanghai, all patients were quarantined for treatment. The centralized quarantine point gathered doctors from the 10 most powerful hospitals in Shanghai: "All critical care, respiratory medicine Doctors who were infected with medicine, help him see there together, where we gathered the best medical resources in Shanghai, but if these cases are properly liberalized and these cases are increased by 10 times, these resources will not be provided, and the mortality rate will rise significantly. ."
Zhang Wenhong said that in recent days, some local cases appeared in Shanghai, and medical staff spent 7 days to completely control them and prevent their spread.
But if such a "dynamic zero" strategy is not adopted, then after the epidemic spreads further, the disease control and medical forces may not be enough.
Therefore, under such circumstances, everyone needs to understand that the current isolation strategy adopted in China is relatively strict.
Zhang Wenhong also said that there is still no way to deal with the full range of imported cases in the country. After the cases appear, everyone will work day and night in order to control the early cases.
Therefore, before the global epidemic is well controlled, the strict isolation strategy may continue for some time.
Zhang Wenhong answered all the questions raised by overseas Chinese, taking Shanghai as an example to popularize protection knowledge for everyone.
Overseas Chinese and relatives in Shanghai have forwarded live links to relatives and friends overseas.
Everyone said that on the eve of the Spring Festival, this epidemic prevention video connection was really a charcoal in the snow. Interacting with Professor Zhang Wenhong’s live broadcast online gave overseas relatives and friends a reassurance, and let them know that the ancestral (home) country is constantly concerned about the distance. Behind.
Zhou Zhiping, President of the Songjiang Association of Melbourne, Australia, said: “Professor Zhang Wenhong’s hardcore appearance and answering questions are very helpful to our overseas Chinese and Chinese people, and relieved everyone’s psychological pressure. It warms and loves overseas Chinese and loves wanderers, and serves overseas Chinese. The Chinese have worked together to fight the epidemic, and we are confident that we can spend a peaceful and safe Chinese New Year holiday overseas." (End)
