To fight coronavirus spread, the U.S. may expand ‘social distancing’ measures. But it comes at a cost
By Shraddha Chakradhar @scchak
February 3, 2020

Canceling large public gatherings. Asking students to stay home from school. Closing down borders.

Many places around the world have already implemented such drastic steps in response to the new coronavirus outbreak that originated in China and has spread to at least 27 territories outside mainland China. If the U.S., which has 11 cases so far, begins to see sustained human-to-human transmission, health officials may also have to rapidly step up their own use of “social distancing” measures to prevent further spread...

Beijing reports 41 cluster cases

无 There is no contact history of Hubei within 14 days before arriving in Beijing. No 14-day supervised medical observation is required.

Yesterday, a press conference on the prevention and control of pneumonia in a new coronavirus infection in Beijing was held. Relevant persons in charge of Beijing Municipal Health and Health Committee, Municipal Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, Chaoyang District, Haidian District, and Xicheng District responded to hot issues. Chen Bei, deputy secretary-general of the municipal government, said that for those who have no contact history in Hubei within 14 days before Beijing, they do not need to conduct 14-day supervised medical observation on the premise of ensuring that their own body temperature is normal and that they have cohabitation history After the daily temperature measurement is normal, normal work can be performed.

At the press conference, Chen Bei responded to the question of how to resume work by the public, according to the relevant regulations of Beijing, the return of returnees to Beijing is divided into two categories-one is to leave Hubei within 14 days or People from Beijing who have a history of close contact with Hubei personnel. After such personnel arrive in Beijing, they should conduct supervised medical observation for 14 days under the guidance of the community. During this period, you cannot work temporarily, and you can also work through the Internet. At the end of the observation period, relevant personnel can resume normal work.

The second is that within 14 days before arriving in Beijing, people from non-Hubei areas who have no contact history with Hubei people. They do not need to conduct 14-day supervision on the premise of ensuring that their body temperature is normal and the health of their families and co-residents. Sexual Medicine Observation. Chen Bei emphasized that such personnel can go to work under normal daily morning and evening temperature measurements. After arriving at work, you must also strengthen your own protection. Work units also need to provide well-ventilated and health-protected working conditions to "do both production and epidemic prevention." At the same time, Chen Bei said that returnees should use remote office work as far as possible to prevent and control their work. If you do not have the conditions to work remotely, you should work as flexibly as possible to reduce the density of people and better block the spread of the epidemic. Employers should come up with detailed plans to minimize centralized office situations. While enterprises understand the workplace environment, they also need to understand the collective dormitory and living conditions of employees.

"New Coronavirus Infected Pneumonia Epidemic Prevention and Control Work" Press Conference Session 12

Time: 2020-02-02

Guests: Xiao Juhua, Deputy Governor of the People's Government of Hubei Province; Wang Wei, Director of the Provincial Department of Science and Technology; Zheng Junhua, Shanghai First People's Medical Team Leader, Secretary of the Provisional Party Branch and Vice President of Shanghai First People's Hospital; Wuhan Jinyintan Zhang Dingyu, president of the hospital and deputy secretary of the party committee.

Xiang Peifeng, Deputy Minister of the Propaganda Department of the Provincial Party Committee:

The pneumonia epidemic prevention and control headquarters of the new coronavirus infection in Hubei Province held the twelfth press conference today. Thank you media friends for your great attention to the epidemic prevention and control in Hubei. In order to protect the health of journalist friends and prevent too many people from gathering and spreading infections, starting today, we will continue to hold press conferences in the form of live online video broadcasts, timely release authoritative information on epidemic prevention and control, open and transparent, and respond to public concerns.

Attending today ’s press conference were Xiao Juhua, deputy governor of the People ’s Government of Hubei Province; Wang Wei, director of the Provincial Department of Science and Technology; leader of the Shanghai First Aid Medical Team, secretary of the interim party branch, and vice president of Shanghai First People ’s Hospital Zheng Junhua; President of Wuhan Jinyintan Hospital and Deputy Secretary of the Party Committee Zhang Dingyu.

First of all, please invite Ms. Xiao Juhua to introduce the related work of epidemic prevention and control.

Xiao Juhua, Vice Governor of the People's Government of Hubei Province:

After the outbreak of pneumonia caused by the new coronavirus, General Secretary Xi Jinping attached great importance to it and was very concerned about the development of the epidemic and the treatment of patients, and made important instructions many times. National ministries and commissions, the military, and fraternal provinces and cities earnestly implemented the spirit of General Secretary Jinping's important instructions and the decision-making and deployment of the Party Central Committee and the State Council, and quickly dispatched medical teams to support Hubei. Beginning with the first support to the Hubei medical team—the Shanghai Medical Team in 30 years of emergency assistance to Wuhan, batch after batch of medical teams have rushed to our province.

As of 20:00 today (February 2), there are 68 medical teams and 8310 medical team members from the National Health and Medical Commission, the State Administration of Traditional Chinese Medicine, the Chinese Academy of Chinese Medical Sciences, the 29 provinces (autonomous regions and municipalities), and the military to support our province. . Experts and excellent nursing teams from the respiratory, infectious, and intensive care departments are selected from various places. They have rich experience and some have participated in the fight against SARS and Ebola. In 15 provinces and cities including Shanghai, Guangdong, Zhejiang, Jiangsu, Sichuan, Tianjin, Shandong, and Chongqing, under the severe situation of local epidemic prevention and control, they have overcome difficulties and sent several medical teams to support our province.

After the medical team arrived in Hubei, after training, they quickly joined the medical treatment work in our province. Some of them undertook several wards of designated hospitals, and some of them took on the task of treating critically ill patients. Especially today, Vulcan Mountain Hospital is officially delivered to the army. The army assembled 1,400 medical personnel to undertake medical treatment tasks at Vulcan Mountain Hospital, which will greatly enhance the province's medical treatment strength.

What impressed us particularly is that academicians such as Zhong Nanshan, Li Lanjuan, Wang Chen, Tong Xiaolin, Huang Luqi, and a large number of high-level experts came to Hubei with great pains. They lived and lived in the frontline, fought in the frontline, and helped prevent and treat the epidemic in our province. The treatment provided important guidance and strong support. The majority of medical team members who assisted Hubei came forward and fought day and night in the epidemic-resistant battlefield in Hubei. Some of them took the initiative to give up their vacations and postpone their marriage. Some of them cut their long hair for the convenience of work. Some of them better served their patients. On the protective cap was written "I'm looking for something"; some vows "I will not pay back if I don't break Loulan." After hearing these stories, we were very moved to see the deep scratches on their faces after taking off their protective clothing.

A difficult one, P Plus support. This fully reflects the significant advantages of the socialist system with Chinese characteristics, the strong power of "cohesion and common prosperity", and the lofty spirit of "selfless dedication and great love without boundaries" among the medical staff. It also made us deeply feel that Hubei "is not alone in fighting" and Wuhan is not a "solitary city", and we have strengthened our confidence in defeating the epidemic.

Taking this opportunity, I sincerely express my heartfelt thanks to the national ministries and commissions, the army, brother provinces and cities for their strong support and selfless help to Hubei! Say to all the medical team members who are in Hubei: You have worked hard! Thank you, Hubei Provincial Party Committee and Provincial Government! 61 million people from Hubei thank you!

The Provincial Party Committee and the Provincial Government are very concerned about the service guarantee work of the medical team in Hubei, and I am clearly responsible for coordination and good service. We have done three main tasks: First, we do our best to ensure service. According to the requirements of convenience, safety, health, etc., we will do a good job in providing accommodation, catering, transportation, and safety guarantee for the medical team of Hubei Province, and strive to let them focus on medical treatment. The second is to resolve difficulties in a timely manner. Establish a direct train mechanism for liaison officers to ensure that the channels for aid medical teams to report problems are smooth and convenient. Many provincial leaders visited the hospital or the hospital to visit the medical team, listened to their opinions and suggestions carefully, and coordinated and resolved the problems on the spot. The third is to compact work responsibilities. Provincial headquarters requires that, in accordance with the principle of "provincial responsibility and implementation of territories," special classes should be established in various places to implement special personnel to provide service guarantee for the medical team in Hubei.

Although we have done some work, there are still many places that are not well taken care of. The medical team members from Ecuador provided great understanding and tolerance. Here, I would like to express my sincere respect to all medical team members assisting Hubei! In the next step, we must make the work more detailed and more solid, continue to improve the level of service guarantee, and never let the medical aid team members of Ecuador sweat and cry. We also ask the media friends to supervise.

At present, the situation of epidemic prevention and control in Hubei is severe and complicated. However, we believe that with the strong leadership of the Party Central Committee with Comrade Xi Jinping as the core, and the strong support of the state ministries and commissions, the army, and brother provinces and cities, we will watch and help each other, and there will be no insurmountable obstacles, no mountains that cannot be crossed, and we can certainly Get the ultimate victory in the epidemic prevention and control smash!

Xiang Peifeng, Deputy Minister of the Propaganda Department of the Provincial Party Committee:

Now ask the media to ask questions, and introduce the name of your media before asking.

People's Daily Reporter: After the epidemic, national ministries and commissions, the army, and provinces (autonomous regions and municipalities) quickly dispatched medical teams to support Wuhan, but we are concerned that in addition to Wuhan, the epidemic situation in other cities and prefectures is becoming increasingly severe. How are the resources for the medical team of Hubei Province allocated?

Xiao Juhua, Vice Governor of the People's Government of Hubei Province:

Thank you for your question. The epidemic first occurred in Wuhan, with the largest number of infections. Severe, critically ill patients and death cases first appeared in Wuhan. Although Wuhan's medical resources are relatively abundant, in the face of a public health emergency of this scale, Wuhan The pressure is huge. At the same time, in order to prevent the outbreak of the epidemic in Wuhan and ensure timely treatment of patients in Wuhan, we will arrange the main force of the medical team in Wuhan in Wuhan. As of 20:00 on February 2, a total of 55 medical teams and 5,860 medical team members (including 1586 medical technicians, 4107 nursing staff, and 167 other personnel) were assigned to 26 designated medical institutions in Wuhan. Another army sent 950 medical personnel, plus 450 military medical teams sent earlier to participate in the medical treatment of the upcoming Vulcan Mountain Hospital.

The Provincial Party Committee and the Provincial Government are highly concerned about the development of the epidemic situation in cities and prefectures throughout the province, and are very worried about the spread of the epidemic, because the medical and health resources in cities and prefectures are very uneven, the gap between urban and rural areas is greater, and epidemic prevention and control and medical treatment are difficult. After the aid medical team arrived, we timely arranged some aid medical teams to support other cities and states according to the epidemic situation and local needs. As of 18:00 on February 2, 11 medical teams and 1,535 medical team members (including 465 medical technicians, 1036 nursing staff, and 34 others) were allocated to 10 cities outside Wuhan, of which: Huanggang 549 (two teams from Shandong and Hunan), Ezhou 137, Xiaogan 144, Xianning 138, Jingzhou 149, Jingmen 141, Xiangyang 137, Xiantao 60, Tianmen 40, Qianjiang Forty people, to some extent, alleviated the serious shortage of local medical forces.

In the next step, we will rationally deploy additional medical teams to assist Hubei based on the actual situation of epidemic prevention and control in the province, to further enrich the medical treatment capacity in cities and prefectures.

China News Agency reporter: Diagnostic and therapeutic drugs are the key factors for the prevention and control of the new coronavirus epidemic, and they have always been the focus of attention of the public. What progress has been made in scientific research in our province?

Wang Wei, Director of the Provincial Department of Science and Technology:

Thank you friends for your questions! "Early detection and early isolation" is the most effective method to prevent and control the epidemic. The improvement of detection technology will greatly increase the diagnosis rate and achieve early detection. Our province's rapid detection technology focuses on the development and production of new coronavirus detection reagent products, and the speed of detection has been improved. A lot of work has been carried out and significant progress has been made.

At present, in the research and development and production of new coronavirus detection reagent products, 4 significant progresses have been made.

First, on January 26, two new coronavirus detection kits of Wuhan Huada Gene Technology Co., Ltd. and the DNBSEQ-T7 sequencing system of Wuhan Huada Zhizao Technology Co., Ltd. were approved by the State Drug Administration.

Second, up to now, there have been 6 biological enterprises in the East Lake National Independent Innovation Demonstration Zone (HuaDa Biotechnology Wuhan Co., Ltd., Wuhan Mingde Biotechnology Co., Ltd., Hubei New Viral Disease Engineering Technology Co., Ltd., Wuhan Zhongzhi Technology Co., Ltd., Wuhan Kanglu Biotechnology Co., Ltd., and Wuhan Zhenxi Medical Test Laboratory Co., Ltd.) have developed new coronavirus detection kit products with a total production capacity of 200,000 copies / day.

Third, the in vitro diagnostic reagents of the new Coronavirus Fluorescence Quantitative PCR Kit developed by the Provincial New Pneumonia Emergency Science and Technology Research Project have completed performance verification and are undergoing registration verification. The kit can effectively eliminate false negatives caused by sampling and will provide more reliable results for epidemic detection.

Fourth, the project team of the provincial new pneumonia emergency science and technology research project is developing antibody detection kits and test strips with Livzon Group, and strives to make breakthroughs in antibody detection.

In terms of accelerating the speed of detection, two significant advances have been made:

First, the Department of Medical Laboratory of Zhongnan Hospital of Wuhan University improved the method of nucleic acid extraction to double the speed of confirmatory diagnosis, and the fastest test result was two hours.

Second, the Union Hospital of Tongji Medical College of Huazhong University of Science and Technology is the first to set up a new coronavirus nucleic acid testing laboratory in the province, which can carry out nucleic acid testing projects for more than 200 people every day.

In addition to the above two aspects, we have also made some progress in the three aspects of disease occurrence, development and outcome, clinical diagnosis and treatment, animal traceability research, etiology and epidemiology research.

In terms of the occurrence, development, and outcome of disease, and clinical diagnosis and treatment, Huazhong University of Science and Technology Union Hospital systematically analyzes the current clinical statistics and provides auxiliary support for clinical decision-making. Through the ECMO technology of Wuhan University Zhongnan Hospital Application and analysis of the diagnosis and treatment plan of Hubei Provincial Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine and Integrated Traditional Chinese and Western Medicine provide an empirical reference for clinical diagnosis and treatment.
