On November 28, the reporter learned from the Guangzhou City Epidemic Prevention and Control Conference that 5,351 people were discharged from the city's shelter hospitals on the 27th, and a total of 23,398 people were discharged from the cabin in this round of epidemic.
How is life in the shelter?
How about medical insurance conditions?
Recently, a reporter from Nanfang Daily interviewed Cheng Suiming, deputy captain and deputy chief physician of the medical treatment team of the Second Affiliated Hospital of Guangzhou Medical University, to answer questions that many citizens are concerned about.
The hospital has taken over Hall 2 of Pazhou Fangcai Hospital in Guangzhou. There are currently 1,530 medical isolation observers in the cabin, and a total of 1,339 patients have left the cabin.
What should I bring into the cabin?
Many residents are concerned, if they want to transfer to the shelter, what should they bring?
Cheng Suiming said that when entering the cabin, you need to prepare your ID card, mobile phone, clothing, charging cable and power bank, etc. You can also bring some books and other supplies according to your personal hobbies.
He said that everyone will receive a "love gift bag" distributed by the government when they enter the cabin, which contains all the basic daily necessities, including toothpaste, toothbrush, towel, shower gel, shampoo, hand sanitizer, clothes hanger and washbasin, etc. There are razors for the men and care products for the women.
During the centralized isolation period in the shelter hospital, the infected person needs to wear a mask, take good protection, and maintain good personal hygiene.
Cheng Suiming said that the medical staff and volunteers in the cabin will appeal to guide everyone to maintain good hygiene habits and a safe distance, do not gather in crowds, do not chat, clean up garbage in time, and keep the beds clean and tidy.
How long after entering the cabin can I leave the cabin?
Cheng Suiming introduced that due to individual differences in resistance and underlying diseases, the time required for each person to leave the cabin is different.
According to experience, the average hospital stay in the shelter is about one week.
"We will collect nasopharyngeal swabs on the 6th and 7th day, and carry out a nucleic acid test for the infected person (at least 24 hours apart from sampling), if the two nucleic acid test results are negative, and the nucleic acid Ct value is greater than 35, The centralized isolation medical observation in the shelter hospital can be lifted." Cheng Suiming said.
what to do if body is unwell?
Cheng Suiming introduced that Fangcai Hospital mainly treats asymptomatic infections and mild cases, and does not have acute-onset underlying diseases or mental illness patients, so generally no special treatment is required.
If the patient develops symptoms such as fever and headache, the medical staff will give symptomatic treatment with drugs.
"If the condition worsens, we will give necessary treatment and transfer to a designated hospital for further treatment," Cheng Suiming said.
Cheng Suiming also mentioned that the hospital has arranged for psychiatrists to be stationed in the shelter hospital.
If you experience negative emotions such as depression in the cabin, you can talk to your family and friends in time, or you can communicate with the psychiatrist in the cabin to seek professional advice.
