Today (April 4) is called the “Shanghai Anti-epidemic Battle”!

Right now is the “most severe” time for Shanghai to fight the epidemic. Since March, a total of about 60,000 local new crown infections have been reported, and the momentum of the epidemic has not yet been contained. Thousands of new infections were added.

On April 3, Vice Premier Sun Chunlan visited Shanghai to guide the fight against the epidemic, emphasizing the need to adhere to the general policy of “dynamic clearing” without hesitation, and made it clear that “strong support for Shanghai’s prevention and control work, Let’s work together to win this big battle as soon as possible.”

At the same time, tens of thousands of medical workers from many places across the country rushed to Shanghai urgently… According to the latest news, Shanghai has basically completed a new round of nucleic acid testing. In addition to medical treatment due to illness, the city will continue to implement lockdown management and strictly implement “staying at home”.

The First Day of “Armageddon”:Shanghai’s First “All Staff Nucleic Acid”

This is the first nucleic acid test for all employees in Shanghai since the outbreak of the epidemic, covering more than 25 million people in 16 districts under the jurisdiction of Shanghai.

This afternoon, Jiao Yahui, director of the National Health and Medical Commission’s Medical Administration and Hospital Administration Bureau, said in an interview with “CCTV News” that more than 38,000 medical personnel have been dispatched from 15 provinces across the country to conduct nucleic acid tests. Force 2.38 million tubes to support Shanghai. Among them, 4 provinces sent more than 23,200 medical personnel for nucleic acid sampling, and another 12 provinces sent nearly 4,000 laboratory nucleic acid testing teams.

“Clustered infection” is the biggest risk of nucleic acid testing for all staff. At the press conference on the city’s epidemic prevention and control work held this morning (April 4), Wu Ganyu, a first-level inspector of the Municipal Health and Health Commission, pointed out that nucleic acid testing needs to follow the guidelines of the staff, and wear masks in batches, orderly, and standardized. Go to the sampling point, keep a distance of 2 meters, avoid gathering and talking, and prevent cross-infection.

“The Paper” reported that in a residential area in Pudong, Shanghai, two moving lines entering and leaving the site were detected, and they queued up in sequence by floor, maintaining a distance of two meters. After each resident scanned the code to register, Healthcare workers spray alcohol in the air with a watering can.

The “medical community” has noticed that residents of Yangpu District with limited mobility and students who need to take online classes will be tested first through the “green channel” under the guidance of volunteers. The Morning News reported that an elderly man in Changning District was unable to go downstairs to complete nucleic acid sampling due to illness. Members of the medical team of Wuhan Hankou Hospital climbed the stairs to collect nucleic acid for them.

In some areas, innovation and exploration have been carried out according to local conditions, and the measures of “admission by ticket” have been introduced.

According to “The Paper”, a nucleic acid testing site in Jinshan District, Shanghai is an open sampling site with a large and complex coverage. Therefore, by issuing nucleic acid sampling tickets of different colors, each The number on the ticket is divided into different time periods from near to far, and the number is called according to the community to ensure that the inspection work is carried out in a safe and orderly manner.

Strictly ensuring that “no one family is missed and no one is left behind” is the premise to ensure that all potential social spread can be effectively curbed. In order to get a real-time, dynamic and accurate grasp of the situation, a large number of grass-roots staff and community volunteers have checked and verified the residents in the area.

“Shangguan News” reported that in the preliminary work of the Jiangsu Road Sub-district, Changning District, Shanghai, six small places and units (including small restaurants, small Internet cafes, small hotels, small Bathrooms, small dance halls, small barber shops) stationed personnel, today, medical staff carry out mobile sampling with the assistance of the staff of the market supervision office.

Outside the urban area, Zhang Yun, a staff member of Malu Village, Zhuanghang Town, Fengxian District, told the “The Paper” reporter that compared with urban areas, the disadvantage of nucleic acid screening in rural areas is that the personnel are scattered and the population is distributed. uneven. In some sparsely populated areas, there may be only one family around a large farmland, so residents will wait at the door of their homes, and medical staff will come to the door in tricycles for inspection.

It is reported that in order to organize and implement the screening work well, Shanghai has set up special classes for nucleic acid screening work under the leading groups for epidemic prevention and control at the city and district levels to coordinate and coordinate nucleic acid screening work. Check work. In the preparation stage, design and arrange according to the chain of collection, delivery, inspection and reporting:

Sampling link: In principle, the unit is taken as the unit, and a sampling point is set for every 2000-3000 people. Transfer link: 1 hour after the nucleic acid sampling is started, the first batch of samples is transferred to the testing institution, and the testing institution starts operation. Subsequent samples were collected and transported every half hour to 1 hour.

Detection link: Rapid detection of results is essential for subsequent rapid control and reduction of transmission. According to the experimental rhythm of nucleic acid testing institutions, samples are sent in batches and dynamically scheduled to achieve “no empty machines and no accumulation of samples”, and make good use of the testing capabilities of various testing institutions.

Submission link: The testing institution is required to report the abnormality of the sample test results to the disease control institution and health department immediately; each district will start the fixation, sampling and testing of relevant personnel after receiving the report , as short as possible.

According to the latest news released by the Shanghai New Coronary Pneumonia Epidemic Prevention and Control Leading Group Office, after the new round of nucleic acid sampling is basically completed in the city today, tests, reviews, and personnel will be carried out in an orderly manner. Transshipment and related analysis and judgment work.

After all the above work is completed, follow-up control measures will be clarified in accordance with relevant national regulations and combined with the screening results.

Medical help from many places,

Military “Yun-20” arrived in Shanghai late at night

Because of the huge demand for nucleic acid testing in a short period of time, according to “Interface News” reports, various private medical institutions responded to the call and sent medical staff to reinforce the nucleic acid testing work in Shanghai communities.

The medical teams from other provinces and municipalities in Shanghai are even more “helping in the snow”.

In order to help Shanghai fight against the new crown, from March 27th to April 1st, Jiangsu Province has dispatched more than 5,000 medical personnel, and on the night of the 3rd or the early morning of the 4th, another 7,500 medical personnel were dispatched. The sampling team set off one after another and rushed to Shanghai by bus.

Zhejiang Province, in the early morning of the 4th, 7,261 medical staff rushed to Shanghai to support nucleic acid screening of all staff. This is the fifth time Zhejiang Province has gone to Shanghai to carry out nucleic acid sampling work since March 28. So far, 2.79 million people have been sampled in Shanghai.

Jiangxi Province, dispatched 1,020 medical staff on April 3These medical staff are mainly specialized in respiratory and critical care medicine, critical care medicine, infectious diseases, and hospital infection management. The medical team provided each team member with 15-day protective equipment.

Hubei Province, Shandong Province, Hainan Province, Henan Province, Tianjin City and other places have also sent rescue personnel one after another. More than 2,000 people from each medical unit arrived in Shanghai for assistance, carrying out medical treatment, nucleic acid testing and other work.

The three shelters are ready for treatment

As the number of infected people continues to climb, Shanghai is also racing against time to prepare for the treatment of infected people and close contacts before the results of this nucleic acid test are released.

As of 9:00 on April 4, Shanghai has found a total of 92,405 close contacts in Shanghai and 111,141 close contacts in Shanghai. According to “Caixin.com” statistics, Shanghai has planned to transfer close and sub-close contacts to neighboring Zhejiang and Jiangsu. Among them, Zhejiang Province received a total of 30,000 people, Hangzhou City and Ningbo City each received 10,000 people, Shaoxing City and Jinhua City each received 3,000 people, and Huzhou City and Taizhou City each received 2,000 people.

In addition, the three major makeshift hospitals in Shanghai—Pudong Lingang, Pudong New International Expo Center, and Pudong World Expo Exhibition and Convention Center have all started admission operations. Some members of the medical teams from other places who have arrived in Shanghai in batches recently have entered the makeshift hospital, ready to receive patients with mild new coronary pneumonia and asymptomatic infections.

Yang Xubin, captain of the Anhui Provincial Medical Team Aid to Shanghai, said that the medical team mobilized more than 650 medical staff from 9 provincial and 5 municipal tertiary hospitals overnight to Shanghai, where they will be in the Huabo Garden. Fuxingguan Fangcai Hospital is engaged in rescue work.

The Shanghai New International Expo Center Fangcai Hospital, which has the largest capacity, is designed with 15,000 beds and has treated nearly 6,000 patients with COVID-19. This is the largest makeshift hospital in Shanghai. As of April 3, medical teams from 10 hospitals have been stationed.

Wu Qianyu, a first-level inspector of the Shanghai Municipal Health Commission, issued a statement on today’s epidemic prevention and control regarding “whether asymptomatic infected persons can be quarantined at home” and the care of infected infants and young children. At the meeting:

According to the “Law on the Prevention and Control of Infectious Diseases” and the requirements of prevention and control work, infected persons should be isolated from non-infected persons. According to the principle of classified treatment, Shanghai has made it clear that if the parents of the children are also positive for infection Those who live in the children’s area can be escorted and taken care of, and receive observational treatment together;

If family members are not eligible and the child is younger than 7 years old, they will be treated in a public health center;

Other older children and adolescents, as well as those infected with younger children whose parents meet the conditions of accompaniment, will be isolated and treated mainly at centralized admission points, and a professional pediatric medical team will be deployed to ensure that children receive standardized and professional treatment and life care.

Shanghai Municipal Government Spokesperson Yin Xin expressed her gratitude to the aid workers from other provinces and cities at the press conference. She said:

The nucleic acid testing work in the city is being carried out in an orderly manner. Medical staff from all over the country who support Shanghai are helping with the testing work, and I would like to express my sincere respect and gratitude to these retrograde heroes. The warmth and affection from brother provinces and cities will never be forgotten by Shanghai.
