How to lock positive cases as quickly as possible? What is the necessity of multiple rounds of nucleic acid testing? Why do nucleic acid tests need to be mixed and mixed? On February 24, the reporter interviewed Yang Yueqing, chief of the microbiological examination department of the Hohhot Center for Disease Control and Prevention, on issues of recent public concern.
According to Yang Yueqing, from the perspective of new crown epidemic prevention and control, in order to achieve early detection, early reporting, early isolation, and early treatment, and to prevent the spread of the epidemic, it is very important to conduct nucleic acid testing for all employees. At present, Hohhot has carried out 6 rounds of nucleic acid testing, and the seventh round of nucleic acid testing will be carried out on February 25. Through rounds of nucleic acid screening, positive cases can be identified from the screening population at the fastest speed, so as to achieve all the tests that should be tested; Do it as far as possible.
The purpose of adopting mixed collection and mixed inspection is to complete large-scale nucleic acid testing in a short period of time and to detect potential infected persons as early as possible. During mixed sampling, the staff will record the personal information of each sampled person and the information of the sampling tube. Once positive, the relevant department will immediately determine the information of the sampled person corresponding to the mixed sampling tube, and the epidemic prevention and control personnel will notify the person and the information. Take control measures, re-collect samples as soon as possible, and send them to the Hohhot Center for Disease Control and Prevention for review and testing. At present, the Hohhot Center for Disease Control and Prevention is mainly responsible for the nucleic acid detection of nucleic acid screening personnel who have mixed positive apheresis.
At the same time, Yang Yueqing called on the public to respond to the government’s call, actively cooperate, and conduct nucleic acid testing as soon as possible. (Reporter Ma Fang)
