[Explanation] With the development of the new crown vaccination work, the reporter noticed that many people who were vaccinated have taken off their masks and relaxed their vigilance against the epidemic.

After being vaccinated, you already have a lot of data to know that the prevention and control of vaccines is not 100%.
Now that the global epidemic is spreading, we still have a huge risk of importing from abroad. At the same time, because the coverage of domestic vaccines (vaccinations) is not enough, we have not reached the level After entering, the risk of its spread is still relatively high. We need to clear it, and it will still spread if it is not cleared.
At this time, we require that not only vaccines, but even if the vaccine is not 100% protection, it will reach a protection rate of 70, and there is still 30%. We still hope to make up for it.
After the vaccine is given, it is necessary to (maintain) social distancing and wearing masks for a period of time until the global epidemic is completely controlled, and the coverage of vaccines in our country has reached a very high level. At this time, we will consider picking The mask thing.
[Explanation] Recently, the outbreak in Guangzhou has aroused public attention.
Zhang Wenhong believes that, for the time being, the epidemic has a wide spread, and it is a risk of irregular spread in multiple regions.
Therefore, it is extremely important to do a good job in prevention and control.

China’s recent epidemics so far have spread to varying degrees, including the outbreak in Guangzhou where some high-risk areas have appeared. However, these high-risk areas are still controllable and we must avoid them. break out.
At different points in time, we hope that everyone can speed up the vaccination and speed up the vaccination, not only to protect themselves, but also to protect their families and their (where) community.
There is still a wide spread (state) of (epidemic) at present, that is, the risk of irregular spread in multiple regions has always existed, and we must pay attention to it.
[Explanation] Zhang Wenhong said that because China has done a good job in early prevention and control, and has strong and abundant medical resources, great progress has been made in the treatment of new coronary pneumonia.
Zhang Wenhong called on the public to actively vaccinate the new crown vaccine and cooperate with the state in the treatment and prevention and control of the epidemic.

According to recent data from Taiwan, China, its case fatality rate has also increased. In the early days, Taiwan’s case fatality rate was very low, but recently its case fatality rate has risen to approximately 3%.
So the global case fatality rate is 2.14%, so what does this mean?
As the number of patients increases, a certain degree of running on medical resources will result.
The run on medical resources is now the main reason for the increase in mortality.
In China, we are now doing a good job of national policies and early prevention and control. No matter where we are in China, even if it is recently in Guangzhou, more than 100 patients including asymptomatic infections are very powerful for Guangzhou. The city of medical power, these are not a problem at all.
Therefore, if medical resources are abundant, the fatality rate of our disease is not high, but if there is a run on the medical resources, the fatality rate of this disease will rise sharply.
So in the end, we still need the invention of targeted drugs for this disease. However, the invention of drugs will take some time. What should we do now?
Now we must do a good job of prevention and control and vaccinate, so that we can ensure that our mortality rate is low.
