National Health Commission: Asymptomatic infected people don't need treatment, so do a good job of self-health monitoring.
Guo Yanhong, director of the Medical Emergency Department of the National Health and Wellness Committee, introduced at the press conference that with the variation of the virus, the vast majority of infected people are mild or asymptomatic in clinical features, and the proportion of severe cases is relatively small. In order to coordinate the distribution and utilization of medical resources, we should focus on medical assistance and management of some seriously ill and high-risk groups, and classify and treat COVID-19 virus-infected people.
She introduced that people with mild asymptomatic infections, those without basic diseases or those with stable basic diseases can take care of themselves at home.
It is particularly important to emphasize that asymptomatic people do not need treatment and do a good job of self-health monitoring. If there are symptoms, such as fever and cough, do a good job of symptomatic treatment. If necessary, you can contact primary health care institutions, or through the form of Internet medical treatment, under the professional guidance of doctors.
Guo Yanhong also said that these seriously ill patients or patients at risk of serious illness should be admitted to designated hospitals. "In order to ensure that these patients with serious illness or high risk are treated, we require that hospitals with strong comprehensive ability and high treatment level be selected as designated hospitals, and at the same time equipped with strong medical staff. The team of medical staff should also be multidisciplinary, not only to ensure the treatment of COVID-19, but also to ensure the treatment of basic diseases. "
National Health Commission: Ten optimization measures were introduced, and various localities quickly formulated implementation measures.
Mi Feng, spokesperson of the National Health and Wellness Committee and deputy director of the Propaganda Department, said that after the introduction of the 10 optimization measures, all localities quickly acted to formulate specific implementation measures, optimize nucleic acid testing in high-risk areas, adjust isolation methods, cancel negative nucleic acid testing and cancel health codes and travel codes according to regulations. It is necessary to scientifically and accurately implement national prevention and control measures, unblock channels, and respond immediately to problems reflected by the masses. It is necessary to speed up COVID-19 vaccination for the elderly and provide health services for the elderly suffering from cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, chronic kidney disease, tumor, immunodeficiency and other diseases.
"I also remind everyone here that after optimizing measures, we should continue to do personal protection, maintain healthy and civilized living habits, be our first responsible person, protect ourselves and protect our families." Looking for the wind.
National Center for Disease Control and Prevention: The scope of nucleic acid detection shall not be expanded.
Ten optimization measures clearly need to further narrow the scope of nucleic acid detection and reduce the frequency of nucleic acid detection. What are the specific measures and requirements in this regard? He Qinghua, the first-class inspector of the Department of Infectious Disease Prevention and Control of the National Center for Disease Control and Prevention, said at the press conference on February 8, 65438 that ten optimization measures emphasized that nucleic acid detection should focus on areas and people with high risk of infection, and mainly reduced the scope and frequency of nucleic acid detection from the following four aspects.
First, do not conduct full-time nucleic acid testing according to administrative regions; Second, except for special places such as nursing homes, welfare homes, medical institutions, kindergartens, primary and secondary schools, there is no need for negative proof of nucleic acid testing; Third, cross-regional migrants will no longer check the negative certificate of nucleic acid detection or health code, and will no longer implement "landing inspection"; Fourth, according to the needs of prevention and control work, antigen testing can be carried out.
"In addition, employees in high-risk positions are required to conduct nucleic acid testing in accordance with the relevant provisions of Article 20 optimization measures, and the scope of nucleic acid testing shall not be expanded." He Qinghua introduced that high-risk jobs mainly include jobs that are in direct contact with the environment of entry personnel and articles, as well as employees in centralized isolation places, medical staff in fever clinics of designated medical institutions and comprehensive medical institutions, supermarkets, express delivery, takeout and other employees with intensive working environment, frequent contact and strong mobility.
Why do the elderly still need vaccination? National Center for Disease Control and Prevention responded
Why do the elderly still need vaccination? Xia Gang, director of the Department of Health and Immunity of the National Bureau of Disease Control and Prevention, explained at the press conference that the current epidemic situation is still grim, and vaccination has a good effect on preventing severe illness and death. Vulnerable groups such as the elderly will easily develop into severe illness, critical illness and even death after being infected with novel coronavirus. Vaccination with COVID-19 vaccine benefited the most.
"There are quite a few disabled and semi-disabled elderly people in China. They have lived at home for a long time and seldom go out. However, they may still be infected in the company or visit of relatives, which may lead to illness and even death. Therefore, it is still necessary to vaccinate. " Xia Gang said.
According to its introduction, in view of the high mobility of these elderly people, in order to make it easier for them to vaccinate, some good practices in the past included using mobile buses, setting up special sessions for the elderly, and opening up green channels for the elderly to vaccinate. At the same time, it is also suggested that all localities can send vaccination teams with rich experience in diagnosis and treatment to provide home vaccination for disabled and semi-disabled elderly people, so that these elderly people can complete vaccination without leaving home.
