On the morning of March 29, Auntie Sun, who lives in Lane 1378, Dock Road, Southeastern Pudong, reported to “Xinmin Helping the Nong” , During the lockdown period, she was unable to get back the traditional Chinese medicine she received at Yueyang Hospital, and she had been discontinued for 10 days. Since March 28, Shanghai has launched a new round of nucleic acid screening. After the east of the Huangpu River is unblocked, the west of the Huangpu River will also be closed and controlled.
Aunt Sun is 66 years old this year. Because of colorectal cancer, she sees a doctor in Yueyang Hospital on Qinghai Road all the year round and takes traditional Chinese medicine. On March 18, she finished the traditional Chinese medicine prescribed in the hospital. According to the original plan, the next dispensing of traditional Chinese medicine will be on March 19. But before she could go to the hospital, the community was closed in the early morning of March 19.
Aunt Sun’s husband, Mr. Xia, told reporters that the specialist doctor that his wife sees only has one consultation a week. He couldn’t make the trip on March 19, so he helped his wife make an appointment for the specialist outpatient clinic of Yueyang Hospital on March 26. On the same day, under the coordination of the neighborhood committee and the disease control department, Mr. Xia rushed to Yueyang Hospital with certificates such as nucleic acid testing. This time, the doctor gave his wife a one-month dose of traditional Chinese medicine, and Mr. Xia chose the express delivery service.
As usual, traditional Chinese medicine should have been delivered the next day. However, Daijian called him, saying that Daijian Dian was located in Minhang, and the express service was suspended due to the closure of the epidemic. Aunt Sun’s medicine could not be delivered directly, so it could only be delivered to Yueyang Hospital on Qinghai Road.
Mr. Xia considered making another trip to Puxi to pick it up, but on the evening of March 27, Shanghai issued a notice that, with the Huangpu River as the boundary, the closure and control of the general public will be implemented in two stages. Screening, Pudong New Area will be closed from 5:00 on March 28 to 5:00 on April 1. Due to the traffic control, Xia Xian could not rush to the hospital at all. “Wait until the early morning of April 1 when Pudong was released, and Puxi was closed again.” He was very worried. His wife had stopped traditional Chinese medicine for 10 days. How long will it take? “Cancer patients can’t afford it!”
This afternoon, the reporter called the Qiba Neighborhood Committee where the old man was. The caller, Mr. Yang, responded and immediately contacted the CDC for coordination. Feedback at 14:18: After coordinating with the public security department, the police opened a green channel to “send” Old Man Xia across the river to get medicine. At about 16 o’clock, Mr. Xia told the reporter: the Chinese medicine has been obtained.
