  There is still no specific antiviral drug for COVID-19 in the world.

Zhang Wenhong said that most of the measures taken by China to combat the new crown pneumonia epidemic are non-drug interventions.

However, it is extremely difficult to complete effective non-pharmacological interventions.

  "Everyone can gather today. China's anti-epidemic achievements are obvious to all." Zhang Wenhong took the third CIIE as an example. The huge venues, large crowds, and multiple entrances and exits can still be fast, accurate, and organized. Conduct temperature and safety testing.

  Zhang Wenhong believes that the fight against the epidemic is a whole "systematic project", and China has "achieved its position" in all aspects.

He specifically pointed out that in the entire system, the contribution of wisdom to fight the epidemic must not be ignored.

Including population management, information collection, etc., the role of wisdom in fighting the epidemic is obvious to all.

"Whether this experience can be extended to the prevention and control of infectious diseases in the future is actually extremely critical."

  In Zhang Wenhong's view, AIDS, hepatitis C, etc. should be tracked with smart medicine and the whole process should be managed.

"How to deliver social resources to each patient? How to effectively manage infectious disease resources?" Zhang Wenhong believes that smart medical care can help people solve these problems.
