On March 13, the State Food and Drug Administration approved the registration applications of five enterprises for the new crown antigen home test kit products, namely Wantai Biology, Heatscape Biology, Boossai Biology, MingdaoJie TestIng Biology and Lepu Diagnostics. Up to now, 10 household COVID-19 antigen detection reagents have been approved, and the NEW CROWN Concept Sector Index has risen sharply. According to the experience of the Beijing News reporter, in the process of submitting the purchase order of antigen self-test products, there is no need to register the epidemic drug purchase. So, how do you ensure that you report a positive test result? Li Tong, chief physician of the Department of Infection Comprehensive Medicine at Beijing You'an Hospital, once suggested that it could be restrained by pursuing responsibility according to law.
With the approval of the new crown antigen self-test products, enterprises will accelerate the distribution of goods, and the new crown antigen self-test products of major pharmaceutical platforms will be launched one after another.
At 17:00 on the afternoon of March 14, the Beijing News reporter searched for "new coronavirus", "new coronavirus" or "antigen" on the Dingdang Fast Medicine APP, Ali Health and Jingdong Health, and Ali Health has listed two self-test products; Jingdong Health has a special link to enter the appointment interface when searching for "new coronavirus", and can make an appointment for the new crown antigen self-test products of 6 companies.
Dingdang Fast Medicine APP and Good Pharmacist Online Pharmacy did not search for domestic new crown self-test products, but according to media reports, Dingdang Fast Medicine has laid out Dingdang Smart Pharmacy in 17 cities such as Beijing and Shanghai, and has built a professional distribution team to achieve antigen detection reagents 28 minutes home service through "online ordering store delivery". Good Pharmacist Pharmacy also said that the parent company Jointown Pharmaceutical Group announced that it has reached strategic cooperation with BGI Gene, Beijing Huaketai Biology and Heatscape Biology.

From the perspective of pre-sale delivery time, the flagship store of Gaoji Smart Pharmacy has the fastest delivery time and is expected to be shipped on March 17. On March 14, the relevant staff of Gaoji Medical told the Beijing News reporter that in addition to the Meituan platform, the first batch of new crown antigen self-test products of Gaoji Medical were sold on the shelves of Gaoji online and offline and offline this week, including Gaoji Pharmacy across the country, Gaoji Health Pro WeChat Mini Program and other online and offline channels.
The Beijing News reporter noted that when submitting an order for the new crown antigen self-test product on the US group, there is no need to register the epidemic drug purchase. "If you register the epidemic drug purchase like buying cold medicine, it will lose the significance of letting go of the new crown antigen self-test." Li Tong, chief physician of the Comprehensive Department of Infection of Beijing You'an Hospital, once said that according to Beijing's epidemic prevention requirements, since January 23 this year, those who purchase four types of drugs of "antipyretic, cough, anti-infection, and treatment of dry throat and sore throat", Beijing Health Treasure will have a "pop-up window" and need to be tested for nucleic acid within 72 hours. The reason for buying antigen self-testing products is because there is no condition or do not want to do nucleic acid testing. However, if the antigen self-test result is positive, from the current "Plan" details, it is still necessary to rely on active reporting to complete the regulatory closed loop. Once someone hides the results, it is difficult to regulate in place.

How can I ensure that an individual voluntarily reports a positive result?
According to the requirements of the "Plan", if the antigen self-test result is positive, it should be immediately reported to the community (village and town), and the community (village and town) should contact the emergency center and transfer the residents to the medical institution that has set up a fever clinic for nucleic acid testing in accordance with the guidelines for the transfer of personnel related to the new crown pneumonia epidemic.
So, if the antigen self-test result is positive, how to ensure that the subject will take the initiative to report it? "It's really a problem, and it's easy to really want to hide it, you can say that it's useless or lost, or it's negative." Perhaps it can be constrained by pursuing responsibility according to law. Li Tong once took the monitoring and management of AIDS transmission as an example, after purchasing HIV testing reagents online for self-testing, some people who have positive results will choose not to report because they are worried about social discrimination, and even treat themselves through haitao generic drugs, which will inevitably lead to supervision cannot be put in place. However, once this person transmits AIDS to others, he or she will be held legally responsible. People who are positive for the self-test for covid-19 antigens may also choose not to report because of fears of social discrimination or the cost of isolating the surrounding population, which can also be regulated by law. For those who conceal and do not report after the self-test result is positive, even if they are isolated at home, but the infection is transmitted to their families, they should also be held responsible. "At present, we have not seen the detailed rules in this regard, and the competent authorities should think of it." Li Tong once held that pursuing responsibility according to law would be a better method.
