Аннотация

В статье приводится оценка эпидемии COVID-19 в Китае, которую можно разделить на несколько этапов. Несмотря на прозрачность в информировании мировой общественности, здравоохранение страны на первом этапе развития эпидемии оказалось не готово к быстрому росту числа больных с вирусной пневмонией, меры инфекционного контроля осществлялись не в полной мере, что также привело к большому числу случаев инфицирования среди медицинских работников. Социально уязвимые группы населения не обращались своевременно, в том числе, и по материальным причинам, за медицинской помощью. На втором этапе одновременно с ограничительными мерами, введенными государством произошла перезагрузка всей системы здравоохранения: стало осуществляться бесплатное оказание медицинской помощи пациентам с COVID-19 и обеспечение строжайших мер инфекционного контроля, многоуровневое отслеживание контактов с помощью IT-технологий, организовано многократное наращивание мощности госпиталей. Совместными усилиями министерств, средств массовой информации, социальных сетей и волонтерских движений была обеспечена беспрецендентная социальная мобилизация населения. Безукоснительное выполнение всего комплекса мер, направленных на борьбу с эпидемией, позволило взять на третьем этапе ее под жесткий контроль и практически ликвидировать, спустя 2,5 месяца. Ответные меры Китая на эпидемию COVID-19 могут быть полезны другим странам, в борьбе с текущей пандемией и в подготовке к ответу на биологические угрозы в будущем.

Born in Wuhan: lessons from COVID-19 epidemic in China

Abstract

The COVID-19 epidemic curve in China can be divided into several stages. Despite transparency in informing the world public about clusters of undiagnosed viral pneumonia, the country’s health care at the first stage of the epidemic was not ready to provide adequate and rapid response for a fast increase in the number of patients with COVID-19, infection control measures were not fully implemented, which also led to a large number of nosocomial cases of infection among medical workers and patients. Socially vulnerable groups of the population did not refer for medical assistance in a timely manner due to the lack of the disease danger understanding and also in connection with the high cost for them of medical aid. At the second stage, simultaneously with the restrictive measures introduced by the government, the entire health care system was rebooted: free medical care for patients with COVID-19 was provided and the strictest infection control measures were implemented, multi-level contact tracking system using IT technologies was organized, and the capacity of hospitals was increased many times. Through the joint efforts of ministries, mass media, social networks and volunteer movements, an unprecedented social mobilization of the population was achieved. Strict implementation of the entire set of measures aimed at fighting the epidemic allowed to take it under strict control at the third stage and practically eliminate the epidemic after 2,5 months. China’s response to the COVID-19 epidemic can be useful to other countries, in fighting the current pandemic and in preparing for a response to biological threats in the future.
