  Author Zhao Zhongzhi Zhang Tianfu

  Disinfection, epidemiological investigation, information reporting, nucleic acid testing... The end of April, when static management was once implemented in the ancient city of the plateau, the anti-epidemic of Qinghai Provincial Endemic Disease Prevention and Control Institute, which had participated in many tasks in the anti-epidemic front line "Veteran" Zhao Yuanbo can be described as "running" at full capacity.

  On April 1, Xunhua County, Haidong City, Qinghai Province added 2 new cases of people with positive nucleic acid tests for new coronary pneumonia, and then the number rose to 4.

  On April 3, when Qinghai Provincial Institute of Endemic Disease Control and Prevention recruited members from the nucleic acid detection emergency team to support Xunhua County in carrying out nucleic acid testing, Zhao Yuanbo took the initiative to sign up.

  "I am the first batch of inspectors in our institute to obtain nucleic acid testing certificates in 2020. In February this year, I participated in the second training on new coronavirus nucleic acid testing. On April 1, I just went to the provincial disease control department to do the whole institute. No one is more suitable than me for nucleic acid sampling and testing." Zhao Yuanbo was afraid that he would lose the election, so he told all his testing experience in one go.

  In this way, as a provincial-level emergency team supporting the nucleic acid detection of the new crown pneumonia epidemic in Xunhua County, he, along with professionals from the Qinghai Provincial Center for Disease Control and Prevention, accompanied the mobile PCR detection vehicle to Xunhua to participate in the nucleic acid detection of the new crown pneumonia virus in Xunhua County. The review and re-judgment work of testing and nucleic acid testing that was initially screened positive has further enriched the local testing force.

  Arriving in Xunhua County, the support team exerted the spirit of "quick words, and every second counts", and immediately invested in the support construction of the mobile laboratory and the installation and commissioning of instruments and equipment.

  After a simple pre-job training, the team members quickly entered the state and carried out an orderly nucleic acid detection work. They were divided into three groups, cooperated tacitly, and took turns taking turns 24 hours a day.

  Zhao Yuanbo, a biosafety officer in the department, came in handy this time.

He not only showed his skills in the laboratory, but also served as a guarantee for the safe operation of mobile PCR detection vehicles.

  Ventilation, exhaust, negative pressure, air conditioning operation, central control video call monitoring, laboratory disinfection effect evaluation... It involves the technical aspects of the safe operation of the mobile laboratory. Fault.

  After nine days and nights of hard work and selfless work, he assisted the Xunhua County CDC to efficiently and accurately complete five rounds of regional nucleic acid testing tasks and single-tube single-check tasks for quarantined personnel and key groups.

  But after that, Xining City, the capital of Qinghai Province, also broke out, and the number of positive cases exceeded 100.

  Zhao Yuanbo, who participated in the home sterilization work of the first case of the new crown pneumonia epidemic in Qinghai in 2020, returned to Xining from Xunhua County. A total of 22 technicians, disease control personnel from Haixi Prefecture and its affiliated counties supported the disinfecting team in Chengzhong District of Xining, and went to the front line to carry out all-round disinfecting work.

  As one of the leaders of this disinfecting team, he felt a great responsibility and did not dare to be slack and sloppy.

  "We must first conduct a thorough investigation and on-the-spot inspection of each epidemic-related site, and assist the district CDC to repeatedly analyze and judge according to the activity trajectory of the positive cases, formulate a technical plan for killing, and divide the light and heavy disinfecting areas. , organize and arrange killing personnel." Zhao Yuanbo said, only then can the division of labor be refined, the control and deployment of the killing site can be determined, and the free time can be used to conduct surprise training and simulated disinfecting of epidemic spots, so as to truly achieve "one point one plan, one point" A study."

  The members of the killing team introduced that in the process of killing, Zhao Yuanbo focused on "A" to guide and supervise on the spot, for fear that the team members would miss some inconspicuous corners and subtle links.

  And until the environmental samplers complete the sampling and complete the evaluation of the killing effect, Zhao Yuanbo can breathe a sigh of relief and start to "advance" the next disinfecting target.

  After each disinfecting, no matter how tired or late, he would gather the team members together to summarize and exchange the problems and good experiences found in the implementation of the disinfecting, brainstorming, discussing solutions, and accomplishing today’s work today.

  "The disinfecting work is a delicate job with a clear division of labor, mutual cooperation and full cooperation." Zhao Yuanbo, as one of the leaders, in order to complete the disinfecting task with high quality, he led the team members to wait until the end, under the long-term high-intensity work rhythm, still Maintain professional operation to ensure more thorough and detailed disinfecting of epidemic spots.

  Up to now, this disinfecting team has completed the disinfecting tasks of 5 epidemic spots in Xining City Central District. Among them, the volume of killing air is 110,000 cubic meters, and the surface area of ​​killing objects is 166,400 square meters.
