Experts say that H7N9 still has sporadic cases

On the 11th, the Guangdong Provincial Government held an emergency leading group meeting on the prevention and control of H7N9 bird flu in the province, organized experts to analyze the current situation of the prevention and control of the H7N9 bird flu epidemic in Guangdong, and studied and deployed the current prevention and control work. Zhang Yonghui, director of the Guangdong Provincial Center for Disease Control and Prevention, said There is a possibility that humans may be infected with H7N9 avian influenza in Guangdong and further prevention and control work should be done.

On the morning of August 11, the Guangdong provincial government immediately convened a leading group meeting on the prevention and control of H7N9 bird flu infection in the province, and implemented the important instructions of Hu Chunhua, member of the Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee and secretary of the provincial party committee, and Zhu Xiaodan, governor of the CPC Central Committee. Deputy Governor Lin Shaochun attended the meeting. The meeting also spoke.

In response to the current prevention and control work, Lin Shaochun asked all relevant departments to do the following two tasks: First, to fully treat the confirmed patients, adopt the latest technology, implement the best drugs, and do their best to save the lives of the people. The second is that for the H7N9 outbreak, prevention and control should be taken as the main focus. Starting from the poultry source and market management, decisive measures should be taken to control the source and efforts should be made to block the channels of the birds. Actively play the role of primary medical institutions to ensure early detection, early diagnosis and early treatment of patients.

Lin Shaochun emphasized that all relevant departments at all levels must further enhance their urgency and sense of responsibility in preventing and controlling the current H7N9 bird flu. They must be highly vigilant and not be lucky. To implement the joint prevention and control measures in place, once the suspected cases are found, strict protection measures must be implemented. The industrial and commercial departments must strengthen the inspection of the implementation of the system of “one-day-one-cleaning, one-week-disinfection, and one-month-out-of-one-on-one-day” systems. The occurrence of live birds should be traced back to the source as early as possible. The agricultural sector should increase the detection density, expand the scope of inspections, strictly implement the main responsibility of the enterprise, and ensure that the sampling and detection mechanism for live poultry before slaughter is put in place.

In addition, the letter, finance and other departments must make every effort to ensure the supply of drugs. With regard to treatment costs, patients who have purchased medical insurance for urban and rural residents are included in the scope of Medicare reimbursement for treatment costs; those who have not yet purchased medical insurance for urban and rural residents have their treatment costs infected with the H7N9 Avian Flu Prevention and Control Fund and Medical Assistance Fund. Implement the solution.

Zhang Yonghui, director of the Guangdong Provincial Center for Disease Control and Prevention, introduced the epidemiological investigations conducted jointly by the provincial and municipal disease control departments, and studied and judged the epidemic situation. He believes that there is a potential case of human infection with H7N9 avian influenza in Guangdong, and further prevention and control work should be done.

Professor Zhong Nanshan, leader of the Expert Group of Guangdong Province's prevention and control of human infection with H7N9 bird flu, introduced the condition and medical treatment of H7N9 bird flu patients, and put forward suggestions for prevention and control. He pointed out that the next phase should focus on early detection and early diagnosis of the H7N9 epidemic. For patients with confirmed H7N9, it is recommended that they be treated in a locally qualified hospital. If there is no condition, the referral should be made early. The disease control department must closely track the personnel who are in contact with the patient. When poultry breeding and sales and slaughter personnel are found to have flu symptoms, they must pay great attention to the early use of antiviral drug Tamiflu. The agricultural sector must strengthen the sampling of poultry.
