According to reports, Tibet reported new local cases after more than 920 days, causing concern. At the press conference, Guo Yanhong, Supervisor of the Medical Administration Bureau of the National Health Commission, introduced that in order to strengthen guidance on epidemic prevention and control in Tibet, the comprehensive team of the joint prevention and control mechanism of the State Council has dispatched a working group , including testing, circulation control Experts in treatment, treatment, and community control are guiding Tibet to control the epidemic as soon as possible. Tibet is capable of dealing with the epidemic at this stage, especially since we have the advantage of a national system that is difficult to support from all sides. We believe that the epidemic can be brought under control as soon as possible.
Guo Yanhong pointed out that Lhasa has a permanent population of 868,000, has built a 2,000-bed makeshift hospital, and has a nucleic acid testing capacity of more than 300,000 tubes. Since 2015, the Organization Department of the CPC Central Committee and the National Health Commission have jointly organized and implemented the "group-type" assistance work for medical talents in Tibet. Peking Union Medical College Hospital and other 12 family committee-affiliated (managed) hospitals counterpart support Tibet Autonomous Region People's Hospital. There are also more than 100 tertiary-level hospitals supporting 7 prefecture-level people's hospitals, further promoting the "hospital-based package of departments", focusing on the construction of respiratory, Clinical departments such as critical care, emergency, cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, and medical technical departments such as radiology and laboratory testing have basically formed a department system with relatively complete categories and wide coverage; at the same time, nearly 80 hospitals provide counterpart support to 13 county people's hospitals. These county hospitals As the center of the county, radiates to surrounding areas. The hospital's software and hardware construction has made great progress, a professional talent team has gradually taken shape, and the hospital's comprehensive service capabilities have steadily improved, providing talent and technical support for epidemic response.
The ninth version of the prevention and control plan
Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention : The ninth version of the prevention and control plan is effective against the Omi Kerong mutant strain
Recently, new mutant strains, namely Omi, have been detected in many places across the country Cron BA.5 strains and their clades. Dong Xiaoping, chief expert in virology at the Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention, said: At present, in accordance with the requirements of the new prevention and control plan, all localities are based on rapid and accurate risk management and control and actively respond. Each epidemic can basically be effectively controlled in a short period of time. The prevention and control plan is effective against the Omicron variant.
Dong Xiaoping said that according to domestic and foreign studies, although the epidemic characteristics and transmission characteristics of the BA.5 variant have not changed fundamentally, its transmissibility is slightly higher than that of BA.2, its immune evasion ability is significantly enhanced, and the risk of reinfection increases. , bringing greater difficulty and challenges to prevention and control work.
Dong Xiaoping emphasized that the ninth version of the prevention and control plan more prominently reflects the concepts and measures of precise and scientific prevention and control, adhering to the general policy of "dynamic clearing of and ". The new version of the plan puts forward higher standards for the implementation of various normalized measures and the quality of work. requirements.
Health Code Mutual Recognition
National Health Commission: Will further optimize and improve mutual recognition management of health codes
Recently, the Joint Prevention and Control Mechanism of the State Council issued a document requiring national mutual recognition of nucleic acid test results. Has it been effectively implemented by various regions since the document was issued? After mutual recognition of nucleic acids, will health codes be recognized nationwide? Mi Feng, spokesperson of the National Health Commission, responded to a question from a reporter from the Beijing News.
Mi Feng said that since the notice on promoting national mutual recognition of nucleic acid test results was issued, various localities are rapidly organizing and implementing it. Some places have added the function of querying nucleic acid test results from other provinces and cities and uploading health treasures, some have launched related services for nucleic acid information, and some can switch between provincial and national nucleic acid databases at any time. These practices are for the convenience of the masses. Now Looks like it's going well. If nucleic acid results are not recognized by each other, you can report it through the joint prevention and control mechanism of the State Council and the public message boards set up in various places. The media is also welcome to further supervise the implementation.

Pay attention to Monkeypox
Chinese Disease Control: Monkeypox has spread in more than 70 countries and regions around the world
No cases have been found in Chinah At the tml6
press conference, Dong Xiaoping, chief virology expert at the Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention, said that monkeypox is a zoonotic viral disease caused by monkeypox virus infection. The main clinical manifestations are fever, rash, and lymph node enlargement. . Since May 2022, it has been spread in more than 70 countries and regions around the world. No related cases of have been found in our country.
Dong Xiaoping introduced that people are mainly infected through contact with the exudates, blood, and other body fluids of infected animals, or through bites and scratches from infected animals. Human-to-human transmission is mainly through close contact, and can also be transmitted through droplets. Infection may also occur through contact with items contaminated with the virus, and it can also be transmitted vertically through the placenta. Sexual transmission cannot be ruled out. Monkeypox is a self-limiting disease, and most cases have a good prognosis. Severe cases are common in young children and people with low immune function. The prognosis is related to the branch of the virus infected, the degree of virus exposure, previous health conditions, and the severity of complications.
