As we all know, two years ago, the entire world experienced a very serious COVID-19 outbreak. Although our country has taken careful epidemic prevention and control measures in a timely manner, due to the strong hidden opposite sex of the new crown epidemic and the high infection rate, it is indeed difficult to control. Therefore, in the past two years, the epidemic in our country has been repeated and the number of infections is gradually increasing.
What is even more infuriating is that in order to avoid unnecessary trouble, some people will not take the initiative to report even if they are infected with the new crown epidemic, and will even take other methods to deceive epidemic prevention personnel. In order to avoid such a situation, some regions of proposed to encourage people to report positive for the new crown by themselves. Is this method reasonable?
1. Report the new crown positive by yourself, and use cash rewards?
Under the background of the epidemic, our country has proposed very careful epidemic prevention and control policies, and governments in various regions will also extend relevant policies based on the number of infections within the region and the level of the epidemic. In addition to controlling population mobility, these policies will also adopt regular nucleic acid testing for fixed populations in the region. so as to better control people infected with the epidemic in a timely manner.
However, some cities have a relatively large population base. If large-scale national nucleic acid is carried out, the work pressure and corresponding burden of epidemic prevention personnel will still be very heavy. So in order to reduce the burden on them, some regions have proposed a policy of letting residents test nucleic acid at home and actively report if they find positive.
Of course, this policy is also rewarding. If residents really find themselves infected with the new crown epidemic and report to the community in time to cooperate with epidemic prevention work, they can receive corresponding cash rewards.
Some time ago, a community in Dalian City, Liaoning Province proposed such a policy, and the amount of cash rewards covered by the policy is as high as about 2,000 yuan. However, the people have different opinions on this policy. So is this policy reasonable and what are the pros and cons?
2. Both pros and cons need to be considered
Let’s first look at the advantages . The community mobilizes the people to self-test nucleic acid by cash rewards. This method can indeed encourage the people. With the implementation of such policies, many people will actively conduct self-test nucleic acid at home, which will save a lot of trouble for epidemic prevention workers and reduce their work burden.
At the same time, from a macro perspective, will also reduce the large amount of resources spent on nucleic acids in a city area. After all, nucleic acid testing also requires the use of some raw materials to carry out large-scale national nucleic acids, which is extremely costly. If it can be saved, it is still very beneficial.
Let’s take a look at the disadvantages of this policy. In essence, this policy actually completely handed over the responsibility for epidemic prevention work of nucleic acid testing to the people. If the people cooperate, work at home to carry out nucleic acid, and choose to report it actively after they find that they are infected, it is certainly a very good policy.
But if someone has a lucky mentality and wants to deceive the community, the impact will become extremely serious, and a community or even a city cannot be responsible for it. Similar situations in are also likely to happen. After all, if people find infections at home, they will definitely be in panic.
At the same time, they will also consider the money they spend on subsequent isolation and treatment of the disease. , 2,000 yuan in cash alone, cannot be compared with this expense. After weighing the two, I believe the choices of those infected people will be very clear.
3. The correct way
From the above content, the policy of encouraging people to self-test nucleic acids through cash rewards is still more harmful than good . If serious consequences really occur, no one can be held responsible for it.
In fact, as far as the current situation is concerned, the epidemic situation in my country will still be repeated from time to time, and the epidemic situation in some cities is still very serious. If you want to control the cross-infection of the epidemic while saving resources as much as possible, should still conduct regular mandatory nucleic acid testing on all personnel in the fixed area. This policy is most in line with the actual situation.
4. Summary
In order to control the cross-infection of the epidemic and eliminate the adverse impact of the epidemic on our society and the market more quickly, , whether it is the people or the defense workers, should not have the so-called fluke mentality. For the people, they should actively cooperate with the community's epidemic prevention work and spontaneously reduce the work burden of community epidemic prevention workers.
For epidemic prevention workers, those unreasonable policies should not be proposed for the purpose of reducing burdens. So what do you think of this? Everyone is welcome to leave a message in the comment section below to communicate and discuss with the author.
