In this sudden epidemic, it has always been known that the medical staff who are fighting on the front line of the fight against the epidemic know that they wear protective clothing every day to fight the virus for the health of the people, but they do not know that there is such a group of people in their rear who are also silently dedicated, they are laboratory doctors.
Although the laboratory doctor does not often appear in front of the people, he is also a major force in the prevention and control of the epidemic, and after the completion of a large number of accounting and collection work by the frontline medical staff, all the collected samples will be sent to the laboratory department for nucleic acid testing. Nucleic acid detection is a very heavy workload, they are in the tens of square meters of operation room, receiving, inactivation, nucleic acid extraction, gene amplification... To ensure that any link is accurate, in the process of testing, the testing personnel must strictly wear three-level protective equipment to protect their own safety, especially in the process of nucleic acid testing, due to the huge workload, resulting in a sharp reduction in the rest time of the testing personnel, and even this rare rest time is adjusted in the aisle through the gap with colleagues in the aisle, in order to adjust themselves in the shortest possible time to continue to enter the working state, and to meet a new round of nucleic acid testing work.
Although the laboratory department is an auxiliary department of the hospital, it has a lot of responsibility, especially during the epidemic period. The laboratory department is not what everyone thinks only need to sit there waiting for the results of the machine inspection on the line, they often need to walk back and forth between several work areas, need to confirm each complex link by themselves, to ensure that the test results can come out as soon as possible, and in the sample preparation area to ensure the safety of the laboratory, it will be in a negative pressure state below the standard atmospheric pressure, which directly leads to the detection of personnel more likely to have physical weakness, coupled with three-level protection, sometimes even breathing problems, headaches and other hypoxia symptoms.
The Central Commission for Discipline Inspection and the State Supervision Commission once gave a high evaluation to laboratory doctors: "There is such a group of people, they are closest to the virus, but they are often unsung heroes!" They are the anti-epidemic sharpsman who walks on the tip of the knife, the heroes we can't see, and they have a common name - the laboratory doctor. ”
Batch after batch of nucleic acid test samples are sent to the laboratory department, and the inspectors are involved in the testing of nucleic acid samples again and again, and under the protective mask, they are just ordinary Chinese, a father, mother, son, daughter of a family. In this epidemic, each of us may play a different role, but each of us has a common wish, that is, to wait for the cold winter to pass and the spring to blossom.
