Chinanews.com, December 11th. The State Council’s Joint Prevention and Control Mechanism held a press conference on the 11th. Liang Wannian, head of the expert group of the Leading Group for Epidemic Response and Disposal Work of the National Health Commission, pointed out that “dynamic zeroing” is not “zero infection”.

The so-called dynamic reset is the current general policy for the prevention and control of the new crown pneumonia epidemic in my country. It refers to an integration of the comprehensive prevention and control measures we have taken when there are local cases under the current circumstances to quickly eradicate the epidemic. It is actually a summary and refinement of China’s experience in epidemic prevention and control, and it is also the best choice and general policy for epidemic prevention and control at this stage.

  Liang Wannian said that from a professional and scientific perspective, the connotation of "dynamic zeroing" can be understood from the following aspects.

  First, how to proactively discover the source of infection in time.

This source of infection includes patients, asymptomatic infections, and even other animals that may carry pathogens. The source of infection is found mainly by monitoring the early warning of fever clinics and some detection and active screening methods.

  Second, once a case is detected, public health and social intervention measures must be quickly adopted. These measures mainly include control of epidemic spots, management of close contacts, epidemiological investigations, and control and control such as reducing crowd gathering. measure.

  Third, effective treatment.

Mainly use methods such as integrated Chinese and Western medicine to effectively treat patients, and prevent the progress of the epidemic as soon as possible, that is, prevent the severity of the disease and reduce the occurrence of serious illnesses and deaths.

There are a few points to be emphasized here: 1. "Dynamic reset" is a general policy. We must pursue speed and precision. If there is no speed and accuracy, it will be difficult to achieve "Dynamic reset".

2. "Dynamic clearing" is not "zero infection". We currently have no ability to prevent a local case from appearing, but we have the ability and confidence to quickly extinguish the epidemic when a local case is found, so this is what we want Special emphasis is not on the pursuit of "zero infection," but the pursuit of extinguishing the epidemic as soon as possible.

3. "Dynamic resetting" is not about lying flat, not allowing the epidemic to develop, but controlling it and cutting it off.

Fourth, the general policy of "Dynamic Zeroing" is to seek to maximize social and economic development and epidemic prevention and control.
