In response to this round of the epidemic, Zhejiang Province quickly carried out analysis, research and judgment, and strengthened the overall scheduling of medical institutions at all levels and types in the province, so as to ensure the smooth development of the “willingness to test” work of nucleic acid testing and screening of the masses.
