  Zhang Boli said that the new crown epidemic has raged around the world, severely damaged the economic life and social development of people in various countries, and caused significant loss of life to the people.

Since May last year, multiple outbreaks and local outbreaks have occurred in Beijing, Dalian, Shijiazhuang, Yunnan, Guangzhou, Nanjing, and Yangzhou in China.

  In the face of the outbreak, he said that China has taken a very short time to control the progress of the epidemic, and China has become more and more experienced in the treatment of the epidemic, so the mortality rate is very low.

The incidence and severity of sequelae in China are less than those abroad, which also reflects China's advantages in the combination of Chinese and Western medicine and the combined use of Chinese and Western medicine.

  He also emphasized that as long as the epidemic in one country is not under control, the epidemic in the world cannot be called a victory, and there will be no peace.

Therefore, people all over the world must join hands, unite and fight the epidemic together to win this war.

  "Although the new coronavirus is mutating, we have become more and more aware of its laws, more and more treatment methods, and better and better treatment effects, but at present we cannot take it lightly." Zhang Boli said.

  He said that the coexistence of humans and viruses is a good wish, but it requires conditions. The time is not yet ripe. "We are currently in a stalemate in this protracted war with viruses, and we still need external protection against import and internal protection against proliferation. , And adhere to some proven methods and measures, actively promote vaccination, and strive to form social group immunity as soon as possible."

  He said that China is currently actively summing up experience, studying the mechanism of action of the virus, and is also developing drugs for the rehabilitation stage, and summing up its experience in this regard.

In the future, China is also willing to communicate and share these experiences with the world.
