The Key Laboratory of Infection and Clinical Microbiology of the Laboratory Department of the Second People’s Hospital of Weifang City is one of the laboratories in Weifang City that can detect samples and issue reports.
Reagent preparation, sample arrangement, nucleic acid extraction, information entry, verification, nucleic acid amplification… In the face of piles of nucleic acid samples, 24-hour nucleic acid detection runs non-stop, 24-hour screening and analysis, in Nucleic acid testing laboratories work day and night, which has become the norm for laboratory staff.
Party members take the lead in sticking to their posts, and nearly 30 people work in shifts to ensure that the testing is not stopped 24 hours a day. It is such a group of “desperate Saburos” behind the scenes to ensure the efficient and accurate issuance of nucleic acid testing reports.
More than 1,000 samples were tested overnight without closing their eyes, and they were turned on 24 hours a day to accept emergency tasks at any time
Cheng Juan, the inspector in charge
“Ding bell bell…” “I have an urgent task, go back to the hospital quickly!”
“Okay, go back immediately !”
At 8:00 am on March 17, Cheng Juan hurried back to the laboratory after receiving a call from the hospital. And just after 1 a.m. that day, she had just returned home from a night shift of more than 5 hours.
Since the outbreak of the epidemic in Weifang on March 11, Cheng Juan has basically been in this working state.
“On March 11, citizens who came for nucleic acid testing were already lined up outside the hospital.” At around 5 pm that day, she and 8 colleagues began to receive test samples, and they received the test samples on 12 pm. point more. She stayed up all night, and by the time she got off work at around 6 a.m. the next morning, she and her colleagues had tested more than 1,000 samples.
After the start of the Weifang epidemic prevention and control battle, the number of test samples increased suddenly, and the hospital laboratory adjusted the work process. Nearly 30 test personnel were divided into 4 shifts to work in turn to ensure that the nucleic acid test runs 24 hours a day. For 24 hours Cheng Juan, who turned on the phone and was always ready to go to work, said that she had “lost insomnia for a long time”.
Cheng Juan said that now is an unprecedented pressure, and every colleague is not relieved. At this time, as a party member and a medical worker, in order to win this battle, we must stick to the post of epidemic prevention and control to ensure the quality and speed of testing.
“Young people must go to the top”,
He volunteered to become the inspector with the most night shifts
< p class="imgDesc">Chen Lei Inspector
“Everyone is tired, but they are persevering.” When he said this, Chen Lei had not returned to his hometown in Zhucheng for more than two months and hugged himself 1 Older children.
Chen Lei has undergone professional training and is mainly responsible for nucleic acid amplification and result interpretation in the laboratory. After the outbreak of the epidemic in the province, his work has entered a busy state. “On March 7th, Lacey’s samples began to be sent to Weifang, and they were busy from 4:00 pm to about 11:30 pm.”
Among the laboratory personnel of the hospital’s laboratory department, more than 40 people were over 40 years old. Half of them, Chen Lei, who was born in “90 years”, is regarded as a young member. Under high-load working conditions, youthful physical strength and good physical conditions have become an important guarantee for working conditions. “Young people have to stand up.” Chen Lei asked himself that he should stick to his post at this time.
As a result, Chen Lei became the one who worked the most night shifts in the department. As of March 17, he had been on night shifts for 3 nights. Worked the night shift again and didn’t leave for 24 hours,” he said.
Although he can’t take care of his family, his family is very supportive of Chen Lei’s work. Recently, his wife sends Chen Lei some videos of children every day, which has also become one of the motivations for Chen Lei to work hard. “The child can already be called Dad.” Chen Lei said that he used to go back to Zhucheng every two weeks to see his wife and children. He was busy with work and didn’t go home a while ago, and then caught up with the epidemic. It has been more than two months.
“My biggest wish now is that the epidemic can pass earlier, go back to be reunited with my family, and be able to take my children out of the house without restraint and enjoy the vitality of spring,” he said.
The “old scalper” who still sticks to his post after retiring:
“If I do more, young people can relax”
Retired and rehired staff from Mu Guangyu’s Laboratory Department
Mu Guangyu has been doing the inspection work in the hospital for more than 40 years. At 60 years old this year, he is a veritable “old senior” and “old scalper” in the laboratory department of the hospital.
Lao Mu, who retired in February this year, should not have appeared in the Key Laboratory of Infection and Clinical Microbiology, but as of March 17, he had already worked three night shifts.
“I started work at 7 o’clock in the evening and ended at 12 o’clock in the morning.” Mu Guangyu said that this time, he took the initiative to ask Ying to participate in the epidemic prevention and control work. “As an old ‘inspector’, with many years of work experience, I may be more familiar with the inspection work. I think I can use my spare heat to do some work, so that I can share more for the young children in the department. Pressure. Everyone is working overtime for the epidemic, and I will count as a share!”
“I have been engaged in inspection work for decades, and I have never had such a large workload.” He said, feeling this The pressure at one time was greater than when the 2020 outbreak emerged. As an old party member with 23 years of party experience, he should take the lead in demonstrating and make the greatest possible contribution to the epidemic prevention and control work in Weifang.
Do a good job in the prevention and control of respiratory diseases, and
make a contribution to the prevention and control of the epidemic in Weifang
Director of Qu Meihua Medical Research Center
2In October 019, Qu Meihua was introduced to the Second People’s Hospital of Weifang City as a special talent. More than two months later, the new crown pneumonia epidemic began to appear. Qu Meihua secretly spent 40,000 yuan to buy a temperature detection device and donated it to the hospital for epidemic prevention work.
The work of the Translational Medicine Research Center where Qu Meihua works is closely related to the clinical treatment of respiratory diseases. Her research is to better respond to the diagnosis and treatment of emerging respiratory infectious diseases like new coronary pneumonia.
“I didn’t expect the new crown pneumonia epidemic to break out again in the spring of 2022. In the face of the epidemic, the medical staff in the hospital are very responsible and very hard.” Qu Meihua said that she came to the Second People’s Hospital, I have a lot of dealings with colleagues in the laboratory. Their enthusiasm for work also inspired her to do her job better. Qu Meihua said that the current topic her team is working on is related to epidemic prevention and control. By investigating the work of epidemic prevention and control in grass-roots hospitals, through research and training, a systematic management system was established to solve the problem of how to quickly report cases and how to deal with the epidemic as quickly as possible.
Qu Meihua said that if it weren’t for the epidemic, the research center’s second-generation sequencing laboratory for accurate diagnosis would have been built. She hopes that the epidemic will pass sooner, and her research will be accelerated to make more contributions to the prevention and treatment of respiratory diseases.
“Everything is for the health of the people”, the laboratory team has more than ten party members, and everyone is conscientious in their posts. The Second People’s Hospital of Weifang City, as a demonstration site of party building in the Weifang City health system, has a large number of such party members and cadres who silently contribute to the health of the people and forge ahead for the prevention and control of the epidemic.
