10 items for epidemic prevention in Beijing

Beijing’s 10 epidemic prevention measures are as follows:

1. Scientifically and accurately divide risk areas

Delineate high-risk areas according to buildings, units, floors, and residents. It shall not be expanded to residential areas, communities, streets (townships) and other areas at will. All forms of temporary closures are not allowed.

2. Implement quick closure and quick release of high-risk areas

After the high-risk areas are designated, the community must inform residents of the isolation and control time as soon as possible. For people in high-risk areas, samples will be taken on the 5th day of quarantine, and the quarantine will be released in a timely manner if the test result is negative. If a subsequent case occurs, only the resident with a subsequent positive case will be controlled, and the control time for other personnel shall not be extended.

3. Optimize nucleic acid testing and inspection measures

Employees in high-risk positions and personnel in high-risk areas should undergo nucleic acid testing in accordance with relevant regulations. Other personnel are willing to undergo all tests. According to regulations, enter elderly care institutions, child welfare institutions, kindergartens, primary and secondary schools, inpatient departments of medical institutions, catering (dine-in), indoor fitness and other places, as well as Internet cafes, bars, chess and card rooms, KTV, script games, saunas and other closed places. The QR code must be scanned and the 48-hour nucleic acid negative certificate must be checked, and staff in the above-mentioned relevant places must comply with the regulations.

The nucleic acid testing requirements for key groups will be adjusted. Important units, large enterprises and major events can determine prevention and control measures such as nucleic acid testing and inspections as needed. Prevention and control measures such as negative nucleic acid test certificates and health codes will no longer be implemented for people entering and returning to Beijing. After arriving in Beijing, the "three inspections in three days" will no longer be implemented, and will be implemented in accordance with Beijing's relevant prevention and control regulations.

4. Optimize and adjust isolation methods

Positively infected persons must be scientifically classified and treated. Asymptomatic infected persons and mild cases who are eligible for home isolation are generally quarantined at home, or they can voluntarily choose to be centralized Isolated and treated. Health monitoring will be strengthened during the isolation period. On the 6th and 7th day of isolation, the patient will be released from isolation if the Ct value of the nucleic acid test is ≥35 for two consecutive days. If the condition worsens, the patient will be transferred to a designated hospital for treatment in a timely manner.

Infected patients who have been cured and discharged from the hospital or have left the cabin will no longer undergo home health monitoring. Close contacts who are eligible for home quarantine will be quarantined at home for 5 days, or they can voluntarily choose centralized quarantine. The quarantine will be released after the nucleic acid test is negative on the fifth day.

5. Ensure the basic needs of the public for purchasing medicines

Pharmacies must operate normally and must not be closed at will. There is no restriction on the public’s online and offline purchase of over-the-counter medicines such as antipyretic, cough relieving, anti-infective, and cold treatment. There will be no real-name registration, pop-up windows, or follow-up interviews for drug purchasers. The drug regulatory department guides pharmacies to increase their drug reserves and fully meet market demand in a timely manner. Primary medical institutions can provide medication prescribing services for patients with 11 types of symptoms including fever.

6. Ensure normal medical order

Ensure smooth channels for residents to go out for medical treatment, and residents can seek medical treatment according to their own needs and wishes. Publish the address, telephone number and information of medical institutions that treat children with fever to the public to facilitate the public's inquiry and medical treatment. Emergency treatment areas should be set up in outpatient clinics and emergency rooms of medical institutions to rescue critically ill patients and ensure their safety. After a positive person appears in a medical institution, the clinics involved will be opened and closed to ensure daily diagnosis and treatment services.

7. Accelerate the promotion of vaccination for the elderly

Adhere to the principle of giving priority to people aged 60 to 79 years old, and accelerate the vaccination rate of people aged 80 and above, and make Special arrangements. Carry out training on the determination of vaccination contraindications step by step to guide medical staff to scientifically determine vaccination contraindications.

8. Strengthen the identification and filing of key groups of people

Health departments and communities should conduct "double identification and identification" of key personnel. The health department collects statistics on pregnant women, hemodialysis patients, and cancer patients through medical institutions.

9. Ensure the normal operation of society

It is strictly prohibited to block fire escapes, unit doors, and community doors in various ways. The movement of people must not be restricted in non-high-risk areas. When an epidemic occurs in units, enterprises, or places, infected persons must be quickly isolated or transferred according to local conditions, and terminal disinfection must be carried out. Work, production, or business must not be suspended.

Medical personnel, public security, transportation and logistics, supermarkets, supply guarantees, water, electricity and heating and other personnel who ensure basic medical services and normal social operations will be included in the "white list" management, and relevant personnel will strengthen personal protection, vaccination and health monitoring.

10. Optimize school epidemic prevention and control

Resolutely implement scientific and precise prevention and control requirements. Schools without epidemics must carry out offline teaching activities normally. Campus supermarkets, canteens, sports venues, Libraries and other facilities must be open normally, and the absenteeism reporting system and daily symptom monitoring for teachers and students should be strengthened. Schools affected by the epidemic must accurately delineate risk areas, and normal teaching, life, etc. order must still be ensured outside the risk areas.

Things to note during the epidemic:

1. Reducing some unnecessary outing activities can reduce the risk of contracting the virus.

2. Only by actively doing a good job in personal protection can we better meet the needs of social production.

3. Only by actively conducting personal health tests can we better respond to some epidemic emergencies.
