Behind the good situation of the epidemic situation, these points need to be particularly vigilant!
The overall number of newly diagnosed cases nationwide has continued to decline. New cases outside Hubei have dropped to single digits, and more than 36,000 cases have been cured and discharged ...
After more than a month of fighting, the epidemic situation is getting more and more encouraging, however, we must remain vigilant behind it.

Watch out for bounces:
Resumption of work and resumption of production may lead to a clustered epidemic
The economy and society cannot be shut down for a long time, and resumption of work and production has become the key word of Chinese society now.
After the Spring Festival, the resumption rate of industrial enterprises above designated size has gradually increased. Among them, recent data released by provinces such as Shandong, Guangdong, and Zhejiang show that the resumption rate of industrial enterprises above designated size is over 90%, and some cities have reached 100%.
Employees return to work, machines restart, and economic "motors" roar again.
However, while rushing for time and speed, various places have to see that the resumption of work and production also brings another problem-the increase in personnel flow.
This is undoubtedly a huge challenge to the "war results" that have been achieved for more than a month.
An imported unit cluster epidemic occurred in a unit in Chaoyang District, Beijing. After a cleaning worker became infected, 10 people were diagnosed in the same unit, and 178 people were determined to be in close contact.
A confirmed case appeared in an office building in Guangzhou, leading to the isolation of all employees of the company ...
According to incomplete statistics, there have been more than 10 cases of cluster epidemics after the resumption of work, and hundreds of people have been isolated.
On the 27th, Ma Xiaowei, director of the National Health Commission, chaired a meeting of the National Health Commission's working group in Hubei Province.
Regarding the current situation of epidemic prevention and control, the meeting made the following judgement: With the return of personnel to resume work, resume school, and return, the risk of the rebound of the epidemic has increased, and the number of confirmed new cases of coronary pneumonia in relevant countries has increased rapidly. The control situation remains complex.
From a practical point of view, many enterprises and institutions have employees from all over the country, and the difficulty of preventing and controlling the epidemic situation after the resumption of work has increased. If strict prevention and control are not done well, the cost will be even greater if problems occur.

Beware of loopholes:
Local regulatory coordination is not tight enough
Recently, the incident of Wuhan's convicted criminals entering Beijing caused great concern. After the incident was exposed, multiple investigation teams were quickly set up at all levels.
The Secretary of the Hubei Provincial Party Committee, Yong Yong, gave instructions: In the most critical stage of epidemic prevention and control, such serious violations of the control of the Lihan and Lihe channels must not be allowed.
Against the background of the precise prevention and control of zoning and classification, how to maintain their positions in areas with different levels of risk, and at the same time strengthen management and control coordination, testing the ability to govern.
Recently, many regions have become "relaxed" after the "unbundling": the reopening of the scenic area has attracted a large number of tourists, the people have taken off masks and drank tea, and people crowded to rush to the market ... These "spreading" actions have undoubtedly provided the epidemic spread possibility.
After the above problems were exposed, they quickly raised doubts, and then rectified quickly in various places. Some responsible persons were held accountable.
In the critical period of prevention and control, any loophole may cause a series of serious consequences. Therefore, all localities must adhere to the "one game of chess" in order to ensure the consolidation of staged results and prevent the epidemic from rebounding.

Be wary of typing:
Overseas surges in cases, joint prevention and control is imperative!
At the same time as China is fighting the epidemic, the surge in the number of confirmed cases abroad is also disturbing.
According to the global epidemic data released by the WHO, as of 17:00 Beijing time on the 27th, 1185 new cases of new coronary pneumonia have been confirmed worldwide in the past 24 hours.
The cumulative number of confirmed cases outside China has reached 3,664. In addition, the number of newly diagnosed cases outside China has surpassed China for the second consecutive day.
Looking at neighboring countries such as South Korea and Japan, the speed of development of the epidemic is even more worrying. Movement of people between countries is likely to trigger the importation of cases abroad.
This issue also attracted the attention of Zhong Nanshan, who also issued a reminder at the latest press conference attended.
He emphasized that the epidemic situation has undergone some changes. Foreign countries are growing faster than domestic ones. The prominent countries are South Korea, Iran and Italy. It is very likely that foreign cases will flow back into the country.
"So we need to strengthen international exchanges, share experiences, and jointly defend and control." Zhong Nanshan said.

Watch out for mutation:
Viruses or long-term coexistence with humans?
The problem that cannot be ignored is the slyness of the "enemy", the virus.
At this stage, although progress has been made in the development or testing of clinical drugs, test kits, vaccines and other fields. However, there is still no effective medicine in the strict sense to treat the disease.
According to the recent information disclosed by the State Intellectual Property Office, the results of the previously favored "Redesivir" clinical trial will not be announced until April 27.
In terms of vaccines, Zeng Yixin, deputy director of the National Health Commission, previously introduced that, under the premise of ensuring safety and effectiveness, it is estimated that some vaccines can enter clinical trials as soon as April to May this year, or fight for emergency use under specific conditions. .
However, time is still urgent.
Although the Director-General of the World Health Organization Tandesser said in Geneva on the 26th, the virus has not changed significantly. But the longer the epidemic, the more likely the virus will mutate.
Wang Chen, vice president of the Chinese Academy of Engineering, once said that new crown pneumonia is different from SARS. SARS is highly transmissive and pathogenic. It quickly kills the host and the virus itself is not easy to survive. And new coronary pneumonia may turn into a chronic disease, coexisting with humans like the flu. In this regard, we must make corresponding preparations in terms of clinical diagnosis and treatment and production and life prevention.
Facing this series of uncertainties,
Don't take it lightly!
