(Fighting against New Coronary Pneumonia) Zhang Boli: China has the ability to achieve "dynamic clearing"
China News Agency, Shanghai, April 25 (Reporter Li Chun) "Looking back, if China does not implement the 'dynamic clearing' policy, what will happen?" Zhang Boli, academician of the Chinese Academy of Engineering and honorary president of Tianjin University of Traditional Chinese Medicine, said on the 24th. Shanghai pointed out that according to China's population density and population structure, once the epidemic control and control are relaxed, it will face the consequences of widespread virus spread, severe illness and a huge number of deaths.
On the same day, Zhang Boli was interviewed by the media in Shanghai.
He said that "dynamic clearing" and "absolute clearing" are two completely different concepts.
"Dynamic clearing" is to take active measures to find and eliminate the epidemic. "It does not mean that the epidemic will never happen, but the core connotation is to quickly detect the epidemic and take measures to stop the continuous community transmission of the epidemic."
Zhang Boli pointed out that the real realization of "dynamic clearing" requires conditions and foundations, unified leadership, unified will and the active cooperation of the general public, and a strong grassroots team to implement various prevention and control measures. There must be sufficient living and anti-epidemic material protection.
At present, in Shanghai, tens of thousands of medical personnel and experts from various fields have come to support, and more than 100 makeshift hospitals have been established.
Zhang Boli also said that in the epidemic in Shanghai, it was precisely because so many teams came to support that the run on medical resources was avoided.
He asked in return, if it is completely liberalized and a large number of critically ill patients appear, how many medical resources will be needed to deal with it?
If it really comes to that time, it is hard to imagine how economic development and social exchanges will proceed. Everyone is worried about whether they will be infected, and how can life be at ease?
"So, we must firmly follow our own path and take the road of 'dynamic clearing'." Zhang Boli said that the practice of handling dozens of local clustered epidemics in China after Wuhan has proved that China has the ability to achieve "dynamic clearing". A series of experiences have been formed and good results have been achieved, and good results have been achieved at a small cost, ensuring the health of the people and the steady growth of the social economy.
