Yesterday, Vice Premier Sun Chunlan of the State Council investigated and guided the epidemic prevention and control work in Beijing and emphasized that the current epidemic prevention work has shifted the focus of the work from prevention and control of infection to medical treatment ", and at the same time, it has clarified that the work goal is to "6 protect health and prevent severe illness, ensure that the adjustment of prevention and control measures is smooth and orderly, and efficiently coordinate epidemic prevention and control and economic and social development. "
According to the latest data, although most of the people in the country are asymptomatic infections in and mild cases, in a city in Beijing, there are currently 50 severe and critical patients in hospital, and most of them suffer from basic diseases.
Therefore, Vice Premier Sun Chunlan also pointed out that it is necessary to strengthen the protection of vulnerable groups such as the elderly and patients with underlying diseases. Whether COVID-19 or ordinary patients, medical institutions must receive treatment.
2021 population census shows that the proportion of elderly people over 60 in my country reaches 18.7%, with the number reaching 260 million. These groups are high-risk groups for severe cases and deaths in the new coronary pneumonia. This time, the fierce wave of infection will be the most vulnerable link in the entire society.
Levelless Jun believes that the number of elderly people in 26 billion is not a cold number. They are our parents and elders, and they must be the group we should care about and protect the most .
In the face of severe situation of the new coronavirus, no one will hope that their health will be damaged by the impact of this epidemic. In such a situation, what can we do for our parents and elders? Wu Lijun gave the following suggestions:
. Do your best not to let them get infected
Recently, experts have called on the society to The elderly should not dance square dance, play mahjong, and gather to chat during this period, in fact, in order to avoid them getting infected with the new coronavirus as much as possible.
You should know that the current contagious ability of the Omickron mutant virus has reached an unprecedented level. On September 30, a case did not wear a mask and walked to public places and spitted everywhere after returning to Shaoguan from Hohhot, which infected several passers-by cases. Therefore, allows the elderly to avoid infection. The first priority is to wear masks in public places.
In addition, we must try our best to prevent elders from going to crowded places, maintaining safe social distance, and maintaining hand hygiene.
2. Pay attention to lifestyle at home together
If you live with your elders, you must pay attention to opening the windows for ventilation, ensure that daily necessities are used separately, so that they can exercise properly if their physical condition allows, have a reasonable diet, ensure regular life, and ensure adequate sleep, so that elders can maintain and improve their immunity as much as possible.
3. Elderly people with underlying diseases cannot stop taking medicine
If elders suffer from underlying diseases and need to take medicine for a long time, we must remind them that they cannot stop taking medicine without authorization. They should go to nearby community health service institutions to regularly get medicine, or pass the doctor's evaluation and open a long-term kitchen to reduce the number of visits. If our younger generations can get medicine for the elders, they should go as much as possible.
4. Home medicines and equipment must have
The official guide for home medicines for COVID-19 infection has been released. I won’t say much about it here. There are all in the pictures. What you need to note is to remind elders to use medicines .

In addition, medical equipment used for daily monitoring should also be prepared. In response to the symptoms of new coronary pneumonia , especially blood oximeter and thermometer .
5. Convince elders to get vaccinated as soon as possible
htmlOn November 13, the official release of the "Implementation Plan for the Second Dose of New Coronavirus Vaccine Strengthening Immunization", one of the clear target groups of is "the elderly over 60 years old" .

If the elders have underlying diseases or other health conditions, there is no need to worry, because before vaccination, the doctor will evaluate their physical condition before deciding whether to give the vaccine. If elders have some wrong understanding of vaccine , younger generations should try their best to convince them to get vaccinated.
6. Help elders to do a good job in daily monitoring
It is important to help elders to do a good job in daily health monitoring. If they are infected with the new coronavirus, they should always pay attention to their blood oxygen index , because infection with the new coronavirus may cause blood oxygen to drop. When the blood oxygen saturation is less than 95%, it is already within the abnormal range of "insufficient support". At this time, it is necessary to continuously monitor whether the reading has fallen and pay attention to its status. If it is ≤90%, you cannot delay and seek medical treatment immediately.
Currently the hospital is vigorously expanding the capacity of beds and other medical resources. Vice Premier Sun Chunlan pointed out that "accelerate the setting of fever clinics in temporary hospitals. All fever clinics have increased clinics and medical forces, divert the pressure on patients in large hospitals to reduce the waiting time for patients." also emphasized "We must strengthen the protection of vulnerable groups such as the elderly, children, patients with underlying diseases, pregnant women, hemodialysis patients, etc., regardless of whether it is necessary to protect vulnerable groups such as the elderly, children, patients with underlying diseases, pregnant women, and hemodialysis patients. Medical institutions must receive treatment for COVID-19 or ordinary patients."
7. Do the following home isolation protection
Whether you are infected or your elders are infected, under the circumstances permitted by the home environment, should remain in their own separate rooms and close the door, try to avoid face-to-face contact with the people living together, and avoid eating together and sharing private supplies .
If you have to leave the room, you need to wear medical surgical mask . Keep a good personal and environmental hygiene at home, clean your hands frequently, try to open the windows to ventilate, and keep the air circulating. If you want to share the bathroom with your family, clean and disinfect it immediately after each use.
Regarding home protection, disease control experts said that home protection should be mainly clean and disinfection as a supplement, and disinfectants should be used reasonably to avoid excessive disinfection.Disinfectants that are non-toxic, less irritating and less corrosive should be selected, and disinfectants with "three reactions" (teratogenic, carcinogenic, and gene mutation) should be avoided for air disinfection.
When configuring disinfectants, you should also configure disinfectants of different concentrations according to different disinfectants according to the instructions, and prepare and use cold water in a well-ventilated place. After disinfecting the items and the disinfection time is reached, wipe them with clean water to remove the disinfectant.
The concentration of disinfectant is too high or too low, and the disinfectant cannot achieve the desired disinfection effect. Different types of disinfectants should not be mixed at will, and cleaners and disinfectants should not be mixed. Avoid excessive disinfection and do not let "disinfection" become "poisoning" .
8. Ensure instant contact with elders
If elders do not live with you, then must ensure that they can be contacted at any time. Regardless of whether the elders are infected or not, they should be asked about their physical status on a regular basis every day. More importantly, you need to make your elders familiar with them and proficient in "executing" the process of actively contacting you when you feel unwell. Because when elders are in health, every minute and every second are crucial. The eight suggestions above
are only what Wu Lijun can think of, and everyone is welcome to add them. Wu Lijun believes that in such a special period, in order to protect the physical health and life safety of our elders, we juniors are not too careful and prepared for the sake of .
Levelless Jun thinks that no one can deny it. No matter how cool the world is, no matter how difficult and dangerous the world is, Parental affection is the most valuable in the world. Everyone is the child of their parents, and now you may not only be the child of your parents, but also the parent of your children , so Take action now and do your best to protect your parents and elders from the harm of the new coronavirus !
