To better meet the medical needs of the people, the National Health Commission, together with the National Disease Control and Prevention and relevant departments, will start early deployment, daily monitoring, and continuous dispatch from October 2024. While strengthening work across the country, it will provide guidance for key provinces and cities, mobilize resources and forces from all localities, and continue to conduct field research in relevant hospitals to ensure smooth and orderly diagnosis and treatment services.
The first is to strengthen the monitoring of service diagnosis and treatment. The second is to expand the supply of medical services. The third is to optimize service processes. Fourth, give full play to the role of "Internet +". Fifth, we will focus on giving full play to the diversion role of primary medical institutions.
Wang Liping, a researcher at the Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention, said that it is currently the peak season for respiratory infectious diseases, and a variety of pathogens may cause respiratory infectious diseases. Monitoring shows that influenza is the main disease causing patients with acute respiratory infections to visit medical institutions.
Monitoring data show that influenza is currently in its seasonal advertising data epidemic period, with the epidemic intensity at a moderate level in most provinces. At present, the rising trend of influenza positivity rate has slowed down. As primary and secondary schools in various places are gradually closed for holidays, it is expected that the level of influenza activity may decline in the middle and late part of this month.
In general, this winter and spring will still show alternating or superimposed epidemic trends, but they are all known pathogens, and no new infectious diseases have emerged. The overall epidemic intensity and medical pressure will not be higher than last year.
Vaccines and antiviral drugs are effective against the current influenza A virus
Wang Liping pointed out at the press conference that my country's influenza monitoring results show that the dominant strain of the current influenza epidemic is the influenza A (H1N1) subtype. The National Influenza Center of the Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention conducted antigenic analysis on the recently isolated influenza.
