Due to the large number of children and adolescents infectedpneumoniaand variousflu virusRecently, the outpatient clinics of tertiary hospitals across the mainland have been full. It is difficult to find a bed in the respiratory department and a bed in the pediatric ward. To this end, the National Health Commission of the Mainland held a press conference on the 26th, requiring all localities to increase the supply of medical services and outpatient services, and to be “as open as possible” and the service process “as simplified as possible.”
Ying Xumin, deputy director of the Hangzhou Municipal Health Commission in Zhejiang Province, said that to optimize outpatient services, one is to increase the supply of medical services, and outpatient services “should be open as much as possible.” Respiratory outpatient clinics and fever outpatient clinics at all levels and types of medical institutions such as general hospitals, specialist hospitals, and grassroots community health service centers must be opened on a regular basis. Service hours must be extended as needed, and clinics must not be suspended at will. Conditions must be created to open night outpatient clinics, and all outpatient clinics must be opened at the same time. Open information should also be disclosed to the public in a timely and accurate manner.
The second is to establish a dynamic monitoring and deployment mechanism to ensure that medical resources are allocated as much as possible. If the load is overloaded, the emergency adjustment mechanism should be activated immediately. Within medical institutions, it is necessary to deeply tap the potential of human resources and mobilize wards and qualified administrative staff who have been transferred to support respiratory outpatient clinics; make full use of the strength of hospitals led by urban medical consortiums and county medical communities to support grassroots medical institutions.
The third is to improve medical service measures, and the service process “should be simplified as much as possible.”Optimize the medical service process, improve registration, examination, medicine collection and other service processes, reduce unnecessary links, and makepatient“Examination while waiting for diagnosis”; the implementation of payment following seeing a doctor, no need to pay for the entire treatment, and credit payment following diagnosis to minimize the waiting time of patients during the treatment process. At the same time, we will increase the number of medical auxiliary personnel to maintain medical order and improve diagnosis and treatment efficiency.

Mi Feng, spokesperson of the National Health Commission, said that currently respiratory diseases have entered a period of high incidence and influenza vaccination is being promoted.
Monitoring shows that recent respiratory infectious diseases are mainly caused by influenza, and are also caused by rhinovirus, Mycoplasma pneumoniae, respiratory syncytial virus, adenovirus, etc. Analysts believe that the recent continuous increase in acute respiratory diseases in China is related to a variety of respiratory pathogens Related to superposition.
The report also mentioned that efforts should be made to open more relevant clinics and treatment areas, appropriately extend service hours, strengthen drug supply guarantees, give full play to the role of traditional Chinese medicine, and maximize the ability to receive patients and standardize diagnosis and treatment.

People aged 1-4 years old are mainly infected with influenza virus and rhinovirus. People aged 5-14 years old are mainly infected with influenza virus, Mycoplasma pneumoniae (locally called Mycoplasma pneumoniae) and adenovirus. People aged 15-59 years old are mainly infected with influenza virus, rhinovirus. Viruses and new coronaviruses are the main ones. In people aged 60 and above, influenza viruses, human metapneumovirus and common coronaviruses are the main ones.

In terms of prevention, vaccines are the most important preventive measure. Elderly people with underlying diseases should be vaccinated in time.
