  "It is necessary to deploy anti-epidemic research experts and clinical and disease control experts to jointly establish several national epidemic prevention teams, cultivate an echelon of epidemic prevention scientific research talents, and apply the results of scientific research as soon as possible to the protection of people's health." Chen Haijia, member of the China Association for Science and Technology and chairman of Guangzhou Celera Stem Cell Technology Co., Ltd., said in an exclusive interview with China News Service on May 21.

  Chen Haijia further stated that on the one hand, it is necessary to deploy anti-epidemic research experts and clinical and disease control experts to form several national epidemic prevention teams, actively participate in the actual combat exercises of major epidemic situations at home and abroad, compete on the same stage, and accumulate actual combat experience; The scientific research team trains in the frontline, strengthens the daily drills of joint epidemic prevention research, clinical and disease control, and prepares for early break-in in the event of an outbreak to enhance coordination and cooperation.

  The latest statistical data of the new crown epidemic situation released by Johns Hopkins University in the United States on the 21st shows that there are more than 5 million confirmed cases worldwide. Prior to this, the number of confirmed cases of the new crown worldwide reached 4 million at 16:32 on the 9th, Eastern Time (4:32 on the 10th, Beijing time). The number of confirmed cases of new crowns in the world increased from 4 million to 5 million, which took only about 11 days.

  As one of the earliest entrepreneurs to join the stem cell industry in China, Chen Haijia prepared the proposal early in Beijing to attend the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference. Most of his proposals revolved around fighting the epidemic. Chen Haijia has been committed to promoting stem cell technology innovation and industrialization. In the past two years, he submitted proposals to the General Assembly for building a national stem cell bank, advancing stem cell new drug research and development, and creating a global ecosystem of stem cells in the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area.

  Since the outbreak, high-level experts of the National Health and Safety Commission, the Ministry of Science and Technology, and the National Health and Health Commission have actively promoted the research and exploration of the clinical efficacy of stem cells in the treatment of new coronavirus pneumonia. Stem cell technology has also played an important role in the fight against the new coronary pneumonia epidemic. Power, this makes Chen Haijia feel relieved.

  In order to fight the epidemic, Chen Haijia led Celera stem cells and Guangzhou Respiratory Disease Research Institute led by Academician Zhong Nanshan, Guangdong Provincial People's Hospital, urgently organized a scientific research team, raced against the virus, and worked hard to tackle the new coronary pneumonia program.

  In-depth into the public health and emergency practice of anti-epidemic, Chen Haijia exchanged research with front-line medical workers and scientific research personnel. In his repeated thinking about the status of China's national defense epidemic research system, The "Proposal" is finalized.

  Strengthen the party's leadership in epidemic prevention scientific research, build an emergency scientific research cooperation information platform, cultivate a team of cutting-edge epidemic scientific research talents, transform the epidemic prevention scientific research management and evaluation mechanism, launch a biosecurity law to build a biosecurity legal system, strengthen practice drills, strengthen epidemic prevention research and clinical prevention Combining practice, Chen Haijia made plans for improving the modernization of scientific research management of national defense epidemic from six directions.

  Chen Haijia believes that epidemic prevention research is related to people's lives and health, social and economic development, and even the future security of the country, and scientific and technological research capabilities are not a day's work. Therefore, in promoting the modernization of the national governance system and governance capabilities At the moment, we must pay attention to the strategic research of epidemic prevention from a strategic perspective, and plan for the long term, and step up the promotion of the modernization capabilities and level of scientific research management of epidemic prevention in China.
