Today (March 15) afternoon, the State Council Joint Prevention and Control Mechanism held a press conference. At the meeting, Jiao Yahui, director of the Medical Administration and Hospital Administration Bureau of the National Health and Health Commission, introduced that the applicable objects of antigen testing also include residents who are willing to test. If these residents want to buy testing reagents and need antigen testing, on the one hand, they can go to the nearest grass-roots medical and health institutions for antigen testing. Because our country has implemented medical reform for so many years, a 15-minute medical circle has generally formed, which is very convenient. a channel. If you want to perform antigen testing at home, you can buy it at retail pharmacies, or you can buy antigen testing reagents through online channels. There will be more and more sales through online sales channels. Before attending this conference, I found that antigen detection reagents are now available on some e-commerce platforms.
Residents will self-test antigens at home. If they are positive, they must report to the community in their jurisdiction. The community will notify the emergency center to call 120 special ambulances, and transfer the patients with positive antigen detection to a medical institution with nucleic acid detection conditions in a closed loop for nucleic acid testing. Test, if the nucleic acid test is positive, then enter the process of infected person management. The most important thing is the link from the antigen positive to the nucleic acid detection. Here is a reminder to residents who do home antigen testing. The most important point is that if the antigen test is positive, all used swabs, test tubes, and test cards must be placed in sealed plastic bags, and staff must bring this when they come to the door. Hand it over to a medical institution and dispose of it as medical waste. (CCTV reporter Liu Jie Liu Tingyu)
