                        Free refunds for Wuhan trips: Heli epidemic prevention is a social consensus

                        ■ Observer

                        When there is a special policy in a special period, in the face of the epidemic, it is necessary for all sectors of society to take up social responsibilities, work together to fight against the virus.

                        Near the Spring Festival, a new pneumonia epidemic has arrived unexpectedly. In order to deal with the virus and avoid going to areas with a large flow of people, try not to go to Wuhan, where the epidemic is more serious, without emergency affairs, and it has become the consensus of all sectors of society to fight against the epidemic. And for some travelers who have already booked tickets to Wuhan, should they be refunded? It is estimated that in the past two days, many people encountered this little trouble. Wuhan is one of the largest transportation hubs in China. Passenger traffic during the Spring Festival can be imagined. However, this little worry has been resolved.

                        On January 21, the Civil Aviation Administration issued a notice requesting all transportation airlines to request refunds for passengers who have purchased tickets for flights to Wuhan for free; free of charge for refunds of train tickets to and from Wuhan and high-speed rail tickets . On the same day, Ctrip, Feizhu, Qunar.com, Meituan.com and other online travel platforms also said that during the Spring Festival, hotels, tickets, and car orders in Wuhan will be canceled without loss.

                        当 When there are special practices in special times, this not only reflects the commercial flexibility of the management department and the enterprise platform, but also reflects the emergency response capabilities of the business. Companies that have a sense of market and business intelligence will do something.

                        The spread of the epidemic is irrespective of the region and the population. The fight against the epidemic requires the cooperation of the entire society. This also requires that all walks of life, whether individuals or institutions, enterprises, platforms, contribute their own strength. Do what you can in your own professional and professional fields.

                        Moreover, we analyze the phenomenon of refunds in this special situation, and it is easy to sort out a logical line: Many people's refunds are not due to personal reasons, but the special circumstances have changed, so that individuals have to make refunds accordingly. Strain. It would be unreasonable for individuals to bear the cost caused by this objective factor.

                        许多 For many travelers with insufficient economic conditions or conservative consumption habits, the refund fee of tens of dollars may be the last weight that prompted him to make a "gritted tooth" decision. And if there is no worry about the refund fee, it looks like a straw is placed on the balance of choice. Without loss, it simply gives up travel.

                        To some extent, the requirements of the Civil Aviation Administration are also a measure of benefiting the people; the choice of enterprises is a kind of responsible performance, which is also part of social responsibility. Lost a portion of the "rebate fee" income, but won consumer praise and social praise.

                        From the perspective of the managers, through this move, they are also expressing a position: to comfort and guide people to try not to go to Wuhan and try not to go out in Wuhan.

                        Not only long-distance travel service companies, but also e-commerce platforms have announced that all merchants selling masks on its platform will not allow price increases and provide special official subsidies for mask products; online car companies also start emergency plans In addition to similar cancellation-free measures, there have also been measures to distribute masks and disinfectant solutions to Wuhan's ride-hailing drivers.

                        All these reflect the market rationality of the enterprise. If you do it, you will get extra points. If you do n’t do it, you may get spit out. Why not? And other industries such as shopping malls, restaurants, cinemas and other crowds can also have corresponding "supernormal" measures to cooperate with epidemic prevention and control.

                        In front of the epidemic, social responsibility is the best advertising marketing. This is an exam and a test.

                          Reporter: For patients with pneumonia infected by the new coronavirus, is there a specific medicine for treatment?
                          Academician Li Lanjuan: At present, there are no specific antiviral drugs. The treatment is mainly symptomatic treatment, giving patients a certain amount of nutrition, a certain rest, and symptomatic treatment, including the patient's water and electrolyte testing, because these patients are prone to hypoxemia after illness It is pneumonia, so to supplement it with oxygen and so on, the National Health and Medical Commission has already issued a guideline for clinical treatment.

                          Reporter: How to treat severe patients?
                          Academician Li Lanjuan: For critically ill patients, we have a good experience in H7N9, called the fourth antibody and second balance. The first is antiviral therapy, the second is antishock therapy, the third is antihypoxemia and multiple organ failure, and the fourth is anti-secondary infection. There are two more balances. The first balance is to maintain the balance of water, electrolyte, acid and base. The second is the microecological balance. After virus infection, there is often a microecological imbalance that leads to secondary infection of bacteria. Therefore, the microecological balance can reduce secondary infections. Therefore, this set of schemes and methods is very effective in the treatment of severe patients with new coronavirus infection.

                          Reporter: Compared with the H7N9 avian influenza virus of the year, which is newer coronavirus, which one is more serious after it has developed into a severe disease? What's the difference?
                          Academician Li Lanjuan: The severe incidence of H7N9 is higher than that of pneumonia infected by the new coronavirus. The early incidence of severe H7N9 is between 40% and 50%, which is very high. Of course, after we had a rescue, we also reduced it to a dozen percent, which dropped sharply. There was still such a high mortality rate.
                          At this outbreak, the number of people who have become ill is already quite large, but the number of deaths is still relatively small. Of course, it is estimated that the number of critically ill patients will increase in the later stage. We need to step up efforts to improve treatment. Look, its mortality rate is lower than H7N9.

                          Reporter: How long is the incubation period of the new coronavirus? After a person is infected, what other symptoms do they have besides fever? How to judge if it belongs to a new type of coronavirus?
                          Academician Li Lanjuan: When coronavirus is in SARS, the incubation period is up to 14 days. This time, according to the current patient statistics, it is estimated to be within 10 days.
                          However, this new type of coronavirus infection has great differences among different people after infection. Some patients have a relatively long incubation period after infection, and they develop onset in two or three days. The longest is 10 days. We estimate the incubation period to be slightly longer and set it to 14 days.

                          The reporter asked: Is it contagious during the incubation period?
                          Academician Li Lanjuan: The incubation period may now also be contagious, so this point needs to be taken very seriously, because now I also understand the situation of some patients, the patients themselves do not have fever, and those who have contacted him in the early stage have fever. People may also have infections and fevers later.
                          ...
                          Reporter: Is oseltamivir useful for this new coronavirus?
                          Academician Li Lanjuan: Oseltamivir is effective against general influenza viruses, but it is estimated that this coronavirus will not show any effect.

                          Reporter: Previously, the transmission characteristics from person to person were suggested. Can you give a reminder to the citizens' daily prevention?
                          Academician Li Lanjuan: Because this is a new disease, we have not done in-depth research, but according to theoretical experience, this is an infectious disease of the respiratory tract. This is relatively clear. Therefore, the transmission through the respiratory tract is relatively certain. It is mainly caused by inflammation in the lungs. After pneumonia, the virus must first reproduce in the lungs and spread through the respiratory tract and saliva. Of course, we are still researching the spread of feces and blood. This work is still being studied.
                          ...
                          Reporter: Can you tell us about the course of development of patients infected with the new coronavirus? Are most patients mild or severe?
                          Academician Li Lanjuan: Because this is a new infectious disease, we are still doing clinical observation. According to what we know now, different people have different conditions, and the course of development is also different. In general, there is a fever and mild dry cough after the infection, not a lot of sputum, and then a shadow in the lungs.
                          Generally, the lung shadow of most patients will be treated after treatment. The nucleic acid test is negative for 2 times, and they can be discharged. A few people will be hypoxic, hypoxemia, and even respiratory failure to be rescued, but this is a minority. . There are also very few patients who are more ill and have respiratory failure within two or three days, becoming severe.
                          So overall, most patients are mild and moderate. What is the proportion of severity? We have not done detailed statistics on this matter, and we need a certain number of patients to calculate the results.

                          Reporter: Who are the susceptible people for this new type of coronavirus?
                          Academician Li Lanjuan: All people are susceptible. The elderly, those with low immune function, and those with chronic diseases are more susceptible to infection or become more severe. Therefore, those with poor immune function, the elderly, etc. should pay more attention to protection.
                          ...
                          Reporter: H7N9 was not warmed until May, but the epidemic situation slowly came down. What do you think of the new coronavirus infection, what is its future development trend?
                          Academician Li Lanjuan: When the weather is hot in May and June, the virus is likely to decrease, and virus infections are likely to occur around the Spring Festival and winter and spring. This is also an objective law in nature.
                          ...
                          Reporter: Will the virus mutate in the later period?
                          Academician Li Lanjuan: Of course it will mutate. The virus is constantly mutating. This newly infected virus is also the result of the mutation of the virus. It will change again in the future, and the change will be eternal.

                          Reporter: Will the virus mutate more severely?
                          Academician Li Lanjuan: It may become more powerful, or it may become lighter. Both of these may have both. We need to continue to observe the changes of the virus.
                          ...
                          Reporter: Yesterday, I saw that a doctor from an expert group was also infected. Are the front-line medical personnel at high risk of infection?
                          Academician Li Lanjuan: The new type of coronavirus is a human-to-human feature, and medical personnel are the first to be infected.

                            Wang Guang, a member of the national expert team, has improved his illness and analyzed the cause of his infection

                            Ebara Title: Wang Guang, a member of the National Expert Team, is getting better, analyzing the cause of his infection

                            (Observer.net) At 11 pm on January 22, Wang Guangfa, a member of the National Expert Group who had previously been suspected of new coronavirus infection and pneumonia, was treated in isolation, and director of the Department of Respiratory Medicine, Peking University First Hospital, posted a post on Weibo saying his condition It has improved, and after a day of treatment, the fever has subsided.

                            In the article, Wang Guangfa first explained this controversial "preventable and controllable" argument. He said the epidemic is preventable and controllable and will eventually be controlled. "It's just that society has to pay more for this, including affection, affection, health and economics. The key is that we have to tailor policies to local conditions."

                            Then he also analyzed the cause of his onset, saying that the earliest symptom that he appeared after returning to Beijing was conjunctivitis of the left lower eyelid. Therefore, it was suspected that the virus entered the conjunctiva first and then reached the whole body. "If this speculation holds, my protective blind spot is not wearing protective glasses."

                            It is understood that Wang Guangfa is a member of the expert group on pneumonitis associated with a new type of coronavirus, and has traveled to Wuhan with the expert group of the National Health Commission.

                            Wang Guangfa entered the Department of Medicine of Beijing Medical University in 1981. He went to Japan for further studies in 1995. In 1998, he served as Deputy Director of Respiratory Medicine at Peking University First Hospital. He obtained a master's and doctoral degree from Peking University. During the SARS epidemic in 2003, Wang Guangfa has been fighting on the front line of SARS since the beginning of March of that year, and served as the chief examiner and expert team leader of SARS at Peking University First Hospital. He is fully responsible for SARS treatment and SARS in the hospital. Preparation of ward.

                            The following is the full text of Wang Guangfa's Weibo:

                            I finally got better, thank you for your concern, support and help to me. After 1 day of treatment, I finally have no fever today and am very happy. I also have the spirit to browse WeChat, SMS and online messages. It's really moving. So much prayer, blessing, and encouragement accounted for most of the messages left by acquaintances and acquaintances. I really want to thank everyone for their kindness and care. Of course, some people have also questioned, including some Hong Kong media, "Don't you say that it is preventable and controllable? You got it, can you control it?" You are a national expert who is infected. Is there a defect in protection? ". Today, my condition has improved. I have also considered these issues from a technical perspective. I want to communicate with netizens below.

                            1. Is the epidemic really preventable and controllable?

                            The answer is yes, and the epidemic will eventually be controlled. However, the measures to achieve epidemic control are different at different stages of the epidemic. Today's epidemic control is different in Wuhan and other regions. In the early stage of the epidemic, the treatment measures for the South China seafood market were rapid and effective, and the pathogen was identified initially. This is undoubtedly a huge improvement over the 2003 SARS epidemic. With the identification of the etiology, nucleic acid diagnostic methods were developed quickly. Although the sensitivity and specificity of the test had been debated at the expert level, this undoubtedly provided a strong guarantee for epidemic control. Regarding the infectivity of the disease and the susceptibility of the population, we did not have data to confirm it at the time, so we cannot forget whether the judgment is strong or weak. Before I returned to Beijing, I went to various hospitals to visit the clinic and realized that the epidemic situation had indeed deteriorated significantly. But it is still preventable and controllable, but society has to pay more for this, including affection, affection, health and economy. The key is that we have to act according to local conditions.

                            2, how did I get infected?

                            This is a question I have been asking myself since I got sick. I sorted out my trajectory and details in Wuhan. Most likely it is two nodes. The first was to go to Jinyintan Hospital in Wuhan the next day to see ICU, just in time for intubation. I have a close contact. However, they are fully armed and wearing splash screens, and the possibility of infection is extremely small. Another node is the fever clinics and temporary isolation wards that went to several hospitals 2 days before returning to Beijing. Some hospitals have crowded fever clinics, and there may be patients with new coronavirus pneumonia. Of course, we are also highly alert and are all wearing N95 masks to enter. In retrospect, infections are most likely to be diagnosed during fever.

                            I suddenly realized that we were not equipped with protective glasses.

                            An important clue is that the earliest symptom that appeared after I returned to Beijing was conjunctivitis of the left lower eyelid, which was very mild. Kata symptoms and fever developed after 2-3 hours. Based on the cases I have seen, no conjunctivitis has first appeared. At that time, I also used this as a basis to exclude myself from neocoronavirus pneumonia and to think more about influenza. However, the anti-flu treatment was ineffective, the fever was intermittent, and finally a new coronavirus nucleic acid test was performed, which showed positive.

                            This shows that my conjunctivitis is probably also caused by new coronavirus, and it is the first occurrence of local conjunctiva.

                            Therefore, it is highly suspected that the virus enters the conjunctiva first, and then reaches the whole body. If this speculation holds, my protective blind spot is not wearing protective glasses.
