Guizhou Guiyang Guian September 7 to carry out territory-wide nucleic acid antigen test announcement, in which the information worth paying attention to: Guizhou Guian this nucleic acid antigen test, the use of a portable, fast nucleic acid test reagent instrument, the residents in the home can be detected on their own to determine whether the new coronary pneumonia, which reduces the aggregation of the crowd, reduces the new coronary virus spread everywhere! This reduces the risk of spreading the virus from one group to another. Among other noteworthy information, Guizhou Guian attached great importance to the nucleic acid test, adopting a 20-person mixed test for low-risk areas and a per-household test for medium-risk areas. This kind of initiative is also to improve the speed of nucleic acid testing, increase the accuracy of nucleic acid test results, screening out high-risk groups in the population, or worth promoting in the country.
The new crown outbreak in Guian, Guizhou, has been going on for some time, due to concerns that a single case of a positive patient could be mixed in with residents gathering for nucleic acid testing, resulting in a widespread transmission event. So what Guizhou Guian is carrying out is self-testing at home to popularize nucleic acid antigen testing. The convenient and fast nucleic acid testing agent instruments will be distributed to every family and every person by professional staff. There is absolutely no chance that one person will be left behind. Residents only need to follow the collection method on the video to get the sample correctly. This nucleic acid test also does not have to be sent to a professional place for examination. Residents can distinguish positive patients at home on their own based on the results of the test. For positive patients, residents will just need to wait in isolation at home, and then special epidemic prevention staff will come to their homes to help transfer the patients to the Square Cabin Hospital for treatment.
Most of the nucleic acid tests practiced on a wide scale in China take the form of a mixed test, in which samples are screened for positive patients. Guiyang Guian epidemic prevention staff will also recover these samples, but also have professional personnel to verify the results of the samples mixed test, to avoid people to conceal the situation. As for the way of mixing the test, it is still mainly based on the family as a unit. Since family members are close contacts, if one person is infected with the virus, the whole family may be infected. The reason why epidemic prevention workers do this is also to improve the accuracy of virus detection and screen out suspected patients and close contacts in the population.
So what other improvements do you think should be made to nucleic acid testing in China?
