Key Regions: Focus of Epidemic Control
On February 3, the Standing Committee of the Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee held a meeting to study and discuss the issue of epidemic control. Xi Jinping chaired the meeting and underscored key regions as the focus of epidemic control. Only by concentrating efforts to control the epidemic in key regions can China fundamentally curb the spread of the virus across the country as soon as possible. It is highly necessary to coordinate regional resources, concentrate treatment and protective resources to the front line, and ensure the needs of frontline medical personnel and the patients as a matter of priority.
Hubei province, especially Wuhan and other key regions, are the top priorities of the nationwide war against the novel coronavirus. The situation of the whole country will become stabilized if the epidemic in Wuhan and Hubei is put under control. Making greater efforts to control the epidemic in key regions echoes the urgent wishes of the people in Hubei, especially patients and their families. It is also a must to contain the virus.
The meeting pointed out that Hubei province, especially the city of Wuhan, should further improve and tighten their control, strictly implement the principle of "early detection, early reporting, early isolation and early treatment," strengthen epidemic monitoring, gather the patients for medical treatment, require all close contacts to stay at home for medical observation, and apply effective measures to prevent the spread of the epidemic.
The meeting required that local Party committees and governments must fully take on their responsibilities, strengthen community grid management, and take more thorough, more targeted and more effective measures to contain the outbreak.
Treating the patients on the one hand and blocking the virus from spreading on the other hand – these two together contribute to effective containment of the epidemic.
著力做好重點地區(qū)疫情防控工作
中共中央政治局常務(wù)委員會2020年2月3日召開會議，習(xí)近平主持會議并強調(diào)，要著力做好重點地區(qū)疫情防控工作。只有集中力量把重點地區(qū)的疫情控制住了，才能從根本上盡快扭轉(zhuǎn)全國疫情蔓延局面。要重點抓好防治力量的區(qū)域統(tǒng)籌，堅決把救治資源和防護資源集中到抗擊疫情第一線，優(yōu)先滿足一線醫(yī)護人員和救治病人需要。
湖北省特別是武漢市等重點地區(qū)的疫情防控，是全國疫情防控的重中之重。穩(wěn)住了湖北疫情，就穩(wěn)定了全國大局。著力做好重點地區(qū)的疫情防控工作，既是廣大湖北人民特別是病患和家屬的迫切期望，也是防控疫情蔓延擴散的必然要求。
會議指出，湖北省特別是武漢市要進一步完善和加強防控，嚴格落實早發(fā)現(xiàn)、早報告、早隔離、早治療措施，加強疫情監(jiān)測，集中救治患者，對所有密切接觸人員采取居家醫(yī)學(xué)觀察，完善和強化防止疫情向外擴散的措施。各地區(qū)要壓實地方黨委和政府責(zé)任，強化社區(qū)防控網(wǎng)格化管理，采取更加周密精準、更加管用有效的措施，防止疫情蔓延。做好重點地區(qū)疫情防控工作，醫(yī)治患者是化解存量，防控蔓延是防止增量，這是做好重點地區(qū)疫情防控的一套組合拳。
