Puxi Antigen Screened Over 10 Million People, Immediate Nucleic Acid Detection When Abnormalities Are Discovered | Epidemic Prevention and Control ConferenceFly into the homes of ordinary people
[Xinmin Evening News·Xinmin.com]Many citizens have carried out antigen reagent tests in the past two days. How is the development? What are the reminders for citizens to do antigen testing? At 10:00 this morning, Shanghai held the 142nd press conference on the prevention and control of the new coronary pneumonia epidemic. Wu Ganyu, a first-level inspector of the Municipal Health and Health Commission, introduced that antigen testing is a very important supplement to nucleic acid testing, and positive infection can be detected earlier through antigen testing. Those who do not need to be isolated as soon as possible and conduct nucleic acid review to maximize early detection, early reporting, and early isolation. This time, more than 10 million people were screened in the second batch of antigen testing in Puxi. Through antigen testing, we found some people with abnormal testing. We conducted nucleic acid testing and review at the first time to effectively block the spread of the virus.
The antigen test is characterized by fast speed and simple operation, and citizens can complete the test at home. The Municipal Health and Health Commission reminds everyone to strictly follow the operation instructions and operation videos when testing. If you find that your antigen test result is positive, please report to the village neighborhood committee as soon as possible and wait at home, and the staff will arrange for you to undergo a nucleic acid test review. At the same time, everyone should pay attention that wastes such as nasal swabs, sampling tubes, test cards and other wastes after the antigen self-test should be put into sealed bags, and those with negative results should be disinfected and put into dry trash cans, and those with positive results should be transported when personnel are transported. Hand over to medical institutions for disposal as medical waste. (Xinmin Evening News reporter Zuo Yan)
