Thoughts on the rule of law in the process of epidemic prevention and control

During the epidemic period, in order to effectively prevent and control the novel coronavirus epidemic, all parts of the country were mobilized urgently, and medical staff kept to the front line. However, in this extraordinary period, some improper behaviors have occurred from time to time, such as evading and resisting isolation treatment, cutting roads without authorization, blocking roads, etc., which not only disrupted the normal epidemic prevention and control work, but also touched the red line of the law and may even be investigated for criminal responsibility. When the virus strikes, it tests human nature, and more is the test of the level of governance according to law.

On October 30th, 65438/kloc-0, Zhou went shopping in a supermarket in Enshi. Because I didn't wear a mask, I was dissuaded by the security guard. Zhou not only did not cooperate with the epidemic prevention and control work, but also insulted and discouraged the staff. After receiving the police, the police station of the police station quickly rushed to the scene to warn Zhou. Zhou did not know how to converge and continued to insult and dissuade him. Subsequently, the police summoned Zhou to the police station. During the epidemic prevention and control period, Zhou did not cooperate with the prevention and control work, and abused the supermarket security personnel, which hindered the social management order. According to the "Opinions on Punishing Crimes that Hinder the Prevention and Control of novel coronavirus", a heavier punishment shall be given according to law. In the end, Zhou was sentenced to administrative detention according to law. Guo Mopeng, a drug Lord in Zhengzhou, was sentenced to fixed-term imprisonment of 1 year and 6 months for concealing the history of the situation, resulting in more than 40 people being isolated for observation.

At present, the relevant laws and regulations on the prevention and treatment of infectious diseases in China are relatively complete. Including the Supreme Law in 2003, the Law on the Prevention and Control of Infectious Diseases jointly promulgated by the Supreme People's Procuratorate, the Criminal Law, the Law on Public Security Punishment, the Emergency Regulations for Public Health Emergencies, the Interpretation on Several Issues Concerning the Specific Application of Laws in Handling Criminal Cases that Hinder the Prevention and Control of Infectious Diseases, and the Opinions on Punishing Crimes that Hinder the Prevention and Control of novel coronavirus jointly formulated by the Supreme People's Court, the Supreme People's Procuratorate, the Ministry of Public Security and the Ministry of Justice in 2020. These laws, regulations and judicial interpretations are not only the legal basis for taking measures to prevent and control the epidemic, but also the code of conduct for every citizen during the epidemic.

The rule of law is the "ballast stone" of social stability. Prevention and control according to law can stabilize people's hearts and maintain social stability. The more severe the epidemic, the more we must adhere to strict prevention and control according to law; The more critical it is, the more it is necessary to use the rule of law thinking and the rule of law to carry out the work. The rule of law cannot be sidelined because of the serious epidemic; You can't be lawless and go your own way because of strict management; It is even more impossible for individuals to fish in troubled waters and commit crimes because of limited prevention and control power. Respect for the rule of law is not an obstacle to epidemic prevention and control, but a fundamental guarantee to win the epidemic prevention and control war.

The prevention and control of epidemic situation is also a big test for China's governance system and governance capacity. Epidemic prevention according to law is inseparable from a sound and complete legal system. From the Law on the Prevention and Control of Infectious Diseases and the Emergency Regulations for Public Health Emergencies to the Law on Vaccine Administration and the Law on Drug Administration, China has formed a relatively complete three-dimensional system to ensure that there are laws to follow and rules to follow in dealing with the epidemic. Since the outbreak of the "epidemic", all localities have launched the first-level response to major public health emergencies, implemented traffic control, severely cracked down on behaviors that disrupt market order, and carried out in-depth special supervision and inspection on epidemic prevention and control. Take the law as the key link, and ensure the timely and orderly development of epidemic prevention and control work according to law. The epidemic is just ahead. Only by clearly defining the boundary between conviction and non-crime, and making the rule of law really become a good way to enhance "social immunity" and improve "overall combat effectiveness", can people's life safety and health be better guaranteed.
