In order to guide all localities to do a good job in the prevention and control of new coronavirus infection, in accordance with the relevant provisions of the “Law of the People’s Republic of China on the Prevention and Control of Infectious Diseases”, in accordance with the “General plan for the implementation of “class B and B control” for novel coronavirus infection” and related supporting documents According to the relevant requirements, the comprehensive group of the joint prevention and control mechanism of the State Council has organized and revised the “novel coronavirus Infection Prevention and Control Plan (10th Edition)”. The major revisions are as follows:
1. Edit the name of the disease
Renamed “novel coronavirus pneumonia” to “novel coronavirus infection”.
2. Clarify the guiding principles
Guided by Xi Jinping’s thinking on socialism with Chinese characteristics for a new era, adhere to the principle of “prevention first, combination of prevention and treatment, scientific law, classification and classification”, adhere to the combination of normalized prevention and control and emergency response during epidemics, and consolidate the “quartet responsibility”, enhance the sensitivity of monitoring and early warning, strengthen the protection of key populations, realize the work objective of “health protection and prevention of serious disease”, protect at the maximize people’s life safety and health, and minimize the impact of the epidemic on economic and social development.
3. Promote vaccination and personal protection
Support the public, especially the elderly, to take the initiative to vaccinate and boost immunization; for high-risk groups, a second booster dose can be given 6 months after completing the first booster dose. Emphasize that “everyone is primarily responsible for their own health”, adhere to good hygiene habits such as washing hands often, wearing masks and frequent ventilation, and strengthening personal protection.
4. Strengthen monitoring and early warning
Clarify the key monitoring work that needs to be done in normal and emergency situations. Under normal circumstances, virus mutation monitoring, case reporting, sentinel hospital monitoring, pneumonia of unknown cause monitoring, and municipal sewage monitoring are mainly performed. In emergency situations, nucleic acid and antigen detection monitoring, outpatient (emergency) clinic monitoring in some medical institutions, key institution monitoring, student monitoring, and sentinel monitoring will be added of community groups. Clarify the release requirements for information monitoring and epidemic information, and timely release early warning information according to prevention and control needs.
5. Optimize your detection strategy
Community residents are “willing to do all inspections” as needed and no longer conduct nucleic acid screening for all staff. Conduct antigen or nucleic acid testing for relevant medical personnel and hospitalized patients, staff and care recipients of nursing homes, social welfare institutions, and high-risk individuals in the community. It is clear that the community maintains enough convenient nucleic acid testing points to ensure a sufficient supply of antigen testing reagents and ensure the testing needs of residents.
6. Adjust the source of infection management
Isolation measures will no longer be implemented for people infected with the new coronavirus, close contacts will no longer be identified, and high- and low-risk areas will no longer be designated. Classification and treatment requirements are implemented for patients infected with the new coronavirus. Asymptomatic patients without serious underlying diseases and mild cases can take care of themselves at home, and other cases should timely go to medical institutions.
7. Optimize key link prevention and control
Strengthen epidemic prevention and control work for key populations, key institutions and industries, large locations and rural areas, focus on the protection of key populations, and reduce the risk of clustered epidemics and serious diseases. When the epidemic is severe, major party and government agencies and key industries implement the “two dots and a line” mechanism and personnel rotation for personnel to ensure the normal functioning of society.
8. Take emergency prevention and control measures during the epidemic
During the epidemic period, combined with the comprehensive assessment of the virus mutation, epidemic intensity, medical resource load and social operation, timely temporary prevention and control measures should be taken in accordance with the law to reduce crowding, reduce human flow, and reduce the impact of a short-term increase in infected people Impacts social operations and medical resources.
