To save every life to do everything possible, this is our fight against the epidemic universal **** knowledge,People first, life first is China's fight against the epidemic of the most distinctive color underlining. For the majority of medical personnel, their work is "the health of the system, life entrusted". This responsibility has not only become the medical staff in response to the sudden public **** health crisis fearless forward momentum, but also always remind the medical practitioners is the last line of defense of mankind and the fight against the devil, and behind this is the weight of life.
This anti-epidemic struggle has made us even more clear: no matter whether we are facing acute infectious diseases or a variety of chronic diseases that are prevalent, common and hazardous, protecting the health and safety of the nation's people will always be the primary mission of our public ****health and medical front workers.
Life is precious, life is only once for everyone. "People first, life first" provides a scientific concept for the fight against the epidemic to achieve significant strategic results. This philosophy is reflected in our focus on prevention at the national level, not giving the virus a chance to spread throughout the country so that the scope of the outbreak and the number of people infected can be kept firmly under control. If the virus is allowed to spread, it will be difficult to contain the outbreak, even with the best treatments available later.
Of course, this did not come without a price. We decisively closed the passages away from Han and Ezhou and imposed unprecedentedly strict controls. In order to effectively control the epidemic in a developing country of 1.4 billion people like ours, we pressed the "pause button" on a city of 10 million people, at great cost. But life comes first, and that's a price that must be paid and is worth paying, because economic losses can be made up, but human lives, if lost, will never come back.
Adhering to the people first, life first, but also need the support of science and technology. The General Secretary pointed out that "science and technology is a sharp weapon in the struggle of mankind with disease, and mankind can not overcome major disasters and epidemics without scientific development and technological innovation." Innovation is the first power to lead development, science and technology is a powerful weapon to overcome difficulties.
Since the founding of New China, China's medical and health care programs have continued to develop, and driven by scientific and technological innovation, China's basic medicine, clinical medicine, preventive medicine, and all aspects of traditional Chinese medicine have made many world-renowned achievements. It is these achievements that have become the most powerful weapon in our fight against the epidemic.
Now, we are taking advantage of our new national system to focus on core technologies. For example, our vaccine research and development is in the first square internationally. Next, we are confident that we will make new progress through our own efforts as well as through international cooperation in areas such as testing methods, clinical treatment and vaccine drugs.
In the future, we will continue to rely on scientific and technological progress to overcome difficulties and solve problems, and to provide strong scientific and technological support to ensure that "people come first and life comes first".
