The Standing Committee of the Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee held a meeting on April 8 to analyze the situation of domestic and foreign epidemic prevention and control and economic operation, study and deploy measures to implement normalized epidemic prevention and control measures, and comprehensively promote the resumption of work.

A number of interviewed experts said that under the background of “increasing pressure to prevent epidemic input in China, new difficulties and challenges in resuming production and economic and social development”, the convening of this meeting has focused on epidemic prevention and control and economic and social development. The latest situation is judged. Make it clear that "make ideological preparations and work preparations for a longer period of time to respond to changes in the external environment", and propose "to insist on accelerating the full recovery of production and living order in the normalization of epidemic prevention and control, and to solve the difficulties and problems faced by resumption of production The requirements, etc., set the focus for the next step of China's work, orientate the rudder, and implement precise strategies.

Time: "Unblock" does not "Unblock"

On April 8th, after 76 days and nights of "closing the city", Wuhan officially lifted the control of the Lihan Channel. What kind of signal will be released by the high-level meeting of the Central Committee at this time has attracted much attention from the outside world.

At the meeting on the same day, China ’s top leader Xi Jinping pointed out that “the current staged results of epidemic prevention and control in China are further consolidated.” At the same time, he emphasized that "foreign defense input and internal defense rebound prevention and control must not be relaxed."

In this regard, Chang Jian, a professor at the Zhou Enlai School of Government Management of Nankai University, said that the public is very encouraged by Wuhan ’s “unblocking”, but the awareness of prevention and control does not mean that it can be “relaxed”. He said that at the high-level meeting of the central government held on the day of the "unblocking" in Wuhan, the prevention and control work must not be relaxed, and a clear signal to the society that "unblocking" does not mean "unblocking".

Regarding the current prevention and control measures, Xi Jinping emphasized that it is necessary to pay close attention to changes in the international and domestic epidemic situation, fully implement external defense imports and internal defense rebounds, promptly adopt more targeted and effective prevention and control measures, and continue to pay close attention to each detail. Prevention and control work.

Observations believe that as the epidemic continues to spread in the international community, China's national defense strategy has shifted to "foreign defense imports, internal defense rebound". The high-level meeting of the Central Committee was held on the occasion of the “unblocking” in Wuhan, which further clarified the changes in the focus of epidemic prevention.

For example, the meeting requested that the prevention and control of the epidemic situation in border cities and materials should be strengthened, and the difficulties encountered in health and quarantine, epidemic prevention materials, medical care, and isolation conditions should be solved in a coordinated manner.

"At present, the risk of overseas imports is more severe, and the prevention and control of outbreaks in border cities needs more attention." Chang Jian analysis pointed out that "the relevant requirements are targeted measures to prevent the outbreak of the outbreak."

Long-term: normalization of epidemic prevention and control

According to data released by the World Health Organization on April 8, there are more than 1.35 million confirmed cases of new coronary pneumonia worldwide, affecting more than 200 countries and regions.

The international epidemic situation and the world economic situation are becoming more and more complicated. How does China face it? At this meeting, Xi Jinping pointed out that it is necessary to adhere to the bottom line thinking and make a good preparation for thinking and work in response to changes in the external environment for a long time.

Xue Lan, a professor at the School of Public Administration of Tsinghua University, said that the "external environment" includes the epidemic prevention and control environment and the economic development environment, and both may have a "new normal". He explained that from the perspective of the current spread of the global epidemic, it may be that for a long period of time, people need to learn to adapt to living together with the epidemic. On the other hand, when the international economic situation changes along with the epidemic situation, people need to make mental preparations to adapt to the new pattern including changes in the industrial chain and supply chain.

Regarding "bottom-line thinking", Professor Dai Yanjun of the Central Party School (National School of Administration) said that in the face of the uncertainties specific to the epidemic, it is necessary to think from the worst to the best. "Not only the mental preparation, but also the specific preparation for the work, so as not to be helpless when real difficulties come."

In the view of the interviewed scholars, relevant preparations include both epidemic prevention and control as well as resumption of production. On the same day, the meeting clearly pointed out that it is necessary to accelerate the full recovery of production and living order in the normalization of epidemic prevention and control, and put forward a number of requirements on specific issues such as difficult industries, small and medium-sized enterprises, and expansion of residents' consumption.

"Normalized epidemic prevention and control is to inject reasonable expectations into the society. Under this background, the full restoration of economic and social development is a new task for the party committees and governments at all levels." , To accurately identify dangers, will test the governance capabilities of various regions for a long time in the future. "

Accuracy: High requirements for anti-rebound

In the meeting of the day, "precision" became the key word again. Observation points out that the mention of "precision" now raises higher requirements for epidemic prevention and control and economic development.

Regarding the prevention and control measures in Hubei and Wuhan, Xi Jinping proposed to continue to concentrate on scientific and accurate treatment of severe cases, and follow-up and review of discharged patients in a timely manner.

For provinces around Hubei, Xi Jinping requires that information communication and sharing and coordination of prevention and control measures be strengthened, with unified policies and consistent standards in personnel control and mutual recognition of health codes.

Chang Jian believes that the "precision" at this time adheres to the requirements of "precise policy" in the early stage of the epidemic, and more emphasis is placed on precise adjustment. For the prevention and control measures in different regions, more scientific and meticulous decisions should be made according to the stage of development of the epidemic.

In the case of asymptomatic infections, Xi Jinping bluntly stated that "precise prevention and control" will make the epidemic prevention and control network tighter and stronger, blocking all loopholes that may cause the epidemic to rebound.

"The concern for asymptomatic infected persons is a timely response to external concerns. The transmission of asymptomatic infected persons is insidious, and precise prevention and control is aimed at avoiding the rebound of the immune situation." Chang Jian said.

Dai Yanjun said that for the restoration of economic and social development, the meeting also reflected the "precision" requirement. For example, the meeting emphasized measures to optimize and perfect epidemic prevention and control measures according to local conditions and timing, and to do everything possible to create conditions conducive to resumption of production and production, without losing the opportunity to unblock industrial circulation, market circulation, and economic and social circulation.

He pointed out that in the context of epidemic prevention and control, "precision" is required to restore the normal operation of the economy and society. For the industries and people most affected by the epidemic, macro-level attention is required. (Finish)
