China News Service, Beijing, March 17th: After restarting Xiaotangshan Hospital, how can Beijing relieve the pressure of overseas input?
China News Agency reporter Du Yan
After a lapse of 17 years, Beijing Xiaotangshan Hospital, which used to treat SARS patients, opened again. At the time of the global spread of the new crown pneumonia epidemic, Beijing faces pressure from abroad and needs to maintain its strength and endurance to fight the epidemic together.
What kind of challenges does Beijing face?
Since the first report of newly diagnosed cases of new coronary pneumonia on January 20, Beijing has begun a "war on epidemic" with other provinces and "internal defense and internal proliferation", and it has continued to increase its prevention and control measures in order to cut off Source of infection.
If we say that the current global epidemic of war is divided into the first half and the second half, then China has achieved important results in the first half of the war.
Since February 12 when Tibet was the first to "clear" in China, so far, more than a dozen confirmed cases in China have been "cleared."
In Beijing, as of 12:00 on March 17, a total of 415 locally confirmed cases were reported, of which 366 were cured and 8 were discharged.
The number of local hospitalized cases is decreasing day by day, but the risks and pressure of epidemic import from outside of Beijing have further increased. From February 29, the first overseas imported confirmed case was reported. As of 12:00 on March 17, Beijing had reported a total of 41 overseas imported confirmed cases.
At present, Beijing has formed a tight and seamless closed-loop of responsibility, closed-loop control, and closed-loop work to strengthen the management of immigrants. For example, to strengthen the management of international flights to Beijing, boarding of passengers with symptoms is not allowed; all people entering Beijing must be quarantined for 14 days.
At the same time, Beijing's communities (villages) are still under closed management, requiring people stranded in Hubei not to return to Beijing.
The staff have resumed work and production, and the students have not resumed. In the second half of the "epidemic" of the war, Beijing still needs to maintain its determination and unswervingly answer the new examination questions for the epidemic, and gradually restore the order of production and life while strictly guarding the country.
What role can Xiaotangshan Hospital play?
In Beijing's closed-loop management of immigrants, the restart of Beijing Xiaotangshan Hospital is an important part.
As early as January 23, when the new crown epidemic was spreading in China, Beijing had started the repair and reconstruction of Xiaotangshan to ensure that it was prepared.
With the increase in the number of immigrants, the screening and treatment pressure of Beijing medical institutions has increased. Beijing Ditan Hospital, which is about 10 kilometers from Beijing Capital International Airport, bears the brunt.
Data show that from February 29 to March 14 at 24:00, in addition to treating locally diagnosed and suspected cases, the hospital has received a total of 973 screeners transferred from the airport, and only 207 screened on March 14 .
As the epidemic continues to spread globally, the number of people in Beijing who need to be screened and treated will inevitably increase. This requires Beijing to reasonably allocate "physical strength" and maintain endurance.
The opening of Xiaotangshan Hospital in Beijing this time is mainly used for the treatment of screened personnel, suspected cases, and light and ordinary diagnosed patients from overseas (return) to Beijing.
The hospital, which played an important role during the SASR epidemic, will face the test in the second half of the war.
How does Beijing fight the global epidemic?
The epidemic is a global pandemic. China has sent a team of experts and donated epidemic prevention materials to a number of countries to assist in epidemic prevention and control. Among them, Beijing actively provided technical and product support.
In order to curb the spread of the epidemic, Beijing's strict prevention and control measures are sympathetic. In the community, staff and volunteers sent knowledge of prevention and control of the epidemic situation to Chinese and foreigners, and purchased food for Chinese and foreign staff during the quarantine period. Foreign language volunteers, foreign language epidemiological investigation teams and other detailed registration of immigration personnel, and answer their questions about how to solve life and religious habits during the quarantine, and deal with the impact of travel ... People distributed in every corner of the city, with careful management Service conveys the urban temperature of this cosmopolitan city.
But Beijing has no mercy on "offenders." At present, there are immigrants who "bring illness into Beijing", and more opportunistic concealers taking antipyretics, etc. to conceal their illness. Beijing made it clear that those who misreported or concealed their illness must be punished by law and incorporated into the credit system.
Currently, more than 86,000 cases of new coronary pneumonia have been diagnosed outside China. There is no luck, cities and countries need joint prevention and control to work together to cope with the common enemy of mankind: the new crown pneumonia virus. Especially for the virus and the diseases it causes, there are still many unsolved mysteries that need to be solved by all human beings. Beijing and China are not bystanders and actively fight for the "epidemic". (Finish)
