The transmission chain of the Wuhan training class has spread to four places. How to "prevent" it in the future?

  On the afternoon of February 24, Wuhan held a press conference to announce the current round of the epidemic. A total of 20 confirmed cases and 6 asymptomatic infections have been reported in Wuhan. Most of the infected people are training class personnel, and the infected virus is a mutant strain of Omicron. So, what are the characteristics of this round of epidemic in Wuhan? What is the reminder to us?

  What changes and adjustments have been made to the Wuhan epidemic prevention and control requirements?

  Headquarters reporter She Lixia: After the outbreak, Wuhan City gave the fastest response to the gathering of people. On the 23rd, the Wuhan Municipal Housing Management Bureau made clear requirements for the offline transactions of houses in the city. All offline transactions should minimize the gathering of people and be carried out by appointment and in batches. If it is necessary to carry out transactions such as offline contract signing, the number of people receiving on-site sales at the same time must be limited to less than 5 people. In addition, the epidemic control areas in Wuhan, including individual schools, have also adopted a combination of online and offline teaching methods to ensure the normal progress of student learning. Some schools have also adopted fully closed management after the outbreak of the epidemic, and at the same time carried out nucleic acid testing and screening of students to ensure normal school order. At the press conference, Wuhan City also publicly advocated for citizens and friends many times, hoping that everyone will not leave Han unless necessary, and not gather unless necessary. If you must leave Han, you must prepare a 48-hour nucleic acid test report to cooperate with the various destinations This is to ensure that everyone can have a normal life and work arrangement.

  Wuhan Epidemic: Behind the Training Course

  On the afternoon of the 24th, a new confirmed case of new coronary pneumonia was added in Beijing, which was a returnee who participated in a training course of a company in other provinces from February 18 to 20. Up to now, the epidemic associated with the "training class" has spread to Wuhan, Beijing, Qingdao, and Shijiazhuang. "Training class", a keyword that has appeared many times in this round of epidemic, what reminder does it bring us? Epidemic prevention and control: "early detection, early reporting, early isolation, and early treatment" are still the key!

  Zhao Wei, a professor at the School of Public Health of Southern Medical University: My first concern was how the outbreak in Wuhan was discovered. According to the official notification from the Wuhan Municipal Health and Health Commission on February 22, this round of epidemic was initially discovered by people who came to Wuhan for training from other places, and were found when they took the initiative to carry out nucleic acid testing due to the need to return to their hometowns. It can be seen from the specific process that the outbreak was not discovered when people were sick and seeking medical treatment, which shows that Wuhan's new crown detection and monitoring network is effective and sensitive. In addition, although the transmission chain has spread to the four places, the response speed of the four places is very fast, so the new crown prevention and control work in many parts of our country is trustworthy, and can achieve early detection, early isolation and early control.

  How do you view the epidemic caused by a training?


  Zhao Wei, a professor at the School of Public Health of Southern Medical University: Under the background of normalization of epidemic prevention and control, it is feasible and safe to gradually resume some social activities, such as large-scale conferences, including offline training. But for the organizers, the premise that needs special attention is that they must strictly abide by the relevant regulations. In fact, there are currently approval procedures for large-scale events all over the country. For example, events requiring more than 50 people need to be strictly submitted for approval, and I also noticed from media reports that the person in charge of the hotel where the epidemic occurred in Wuhan mentioned that this training session It was opened twice in the hotel, once with more than 40 people, and once with about 30 people, so there was no report. Judging from the requirements for approval, this training meeting seems to be in line with the process regulations, but for hotel operators, with so many tourists from other places, who have traveled across provinces, regions and cities in a short period of time and gathered together after long-distance travel, will the hotel have Formulating a prevention and control plan that suits our own characteristics, especially whether the prevention and control measures are strictly implemented, these are all things we need to ask and think about through this wave of Wuhan epidemic. What kind of reminder does the epidemic caused by the training class give us?

  Zhao Wei, a professor at the School of Public Health, Southern Medical University:

  The new crown epidemic has lasted for more than two years, and many schools have been able to carry out online teaching activities very proficiently and smoothly, but some companies and enterprises may not be very adaptable now, or they are not used to actively choosing online methods to hold meetings or even Office work, which includes not only being unfamiliar with online methods, but also not changing the concept in time. Therefore, companies and enterprises should strengthen the training and experimentation of online meeting and office methods. Under the circumstance that the current spread of Omikron strains is more concealed, individuals must be cautious when participating in large-scale meetings across provinces, regions and cities, and try not to participate unless necessary; even if they participate, they must improve their awareness of protection, especially in public places. Be sure to wear a mask at all times on public transport to minimize the possibility of infection.
