In response to this round of the epidemic, Zhang Wenhong and Zhong Nanshan both spoke yesterday (November 3) and both mentioned the vaccination of enhanced needles.
Zhang Wenhong
The epidemic is in a critical period
A third dose of the vaccine is a global option
According to CCTV financial news, Zhang Wenhong, director of the National Center for Infectious Disease Medicine and director of the Department of Infectious Diseases of Huashan Hospital affiliated to Fudan University in Shanghai, said yesterday at the "Science Carnival" jointly sponsored by the Shanghai Terminus of the Central Radio and Television Corporation and the Association of Top Scientists of the World: At present, the global new crown epidemic has reached a very critical period, and the epidemic situation in various countries around the world has shown very inconsistent performance. Because of the large-scale vaccination, the incidence of vaccination has dropped significantly in some countries, such as Japan, Israel, and some countries in Europe and the United States.
However, the incidence rate is still very high in most regions, and in this case, China faces a very large import risk, so it is not surprising that sporadic cases appear in the country. For a long time to come, unless the international epidemic has completely reached a very low level, the country will continue to face a great risk of importation.
The world has realized that vaccination has a strong resistance to the disease, resulting in a decline in incidence, but it cannot completely block the spread of the disease. So the current vaccination situation is not enough to fully reach the level that will bring the COVID-19 epidemic to a halt. Some countries have had very good results after the third vaccination.
Zhang Wenhong said that the three-dose vaccine can greatly reduce the spread of the virus, reduce severe illness and death, so the third dose of vaccination has become a very good choice globally.
Zhong Nanshan
Where possible
Vaccination booster needles are very effective
According to China Daily, Zhong Nanshan, an academician of the Chinese Academy of Engineering and a well-known respiratory expert, said in an interview after the 2020 National Science and Technology Awards Conference that the area of the current round of epidemic spread is relatively wide, involving more provinces, and it is estimated that (cases) will increase again. It is estimated that there is still some time to go before the peak of the epidemic, but it will not be too long. Now counting a month should basically be considerable to be controllable.
Zhong Nanshan said that the new crown virus is now more contagious, and the mortality rate does not seem to increase at present, but it is still necessary to pay great attention to the seriously ill people and the elderly, because many elderly people have not been vaccinated. Zhong Nanshan said he hopes that at least 80% of the whole population will be vaccinated by the end of the year, and special attention should be paid to the elderly. It is very effective to add a third dose when possible.
In the current situation, there is still a need to continuously strive for zero infections. He pointed out that no matter how well China prevents it, it is impossible not to be infected. "You can't eliminate the virus, but we can minimize the harm of infection caused by the virus, so it is still necessary to fight for zero infection in this situation." After the case fatality rate is significantly reduced, the whole people are fully vaccinated, and the protection of the community and the protection of individuals have become habits, they gradually become the norm. ”
