专家:新发地这个数字接近尾声!英媒惊叹:看看中国是如何做的,赶紧学!
The outbreak at Xinfadi could have been a nightmare: a COVID cluster in a wholesale market that supplies more than 70% of the megacity's fruit and vegetables. But today the city reported just nine new cases.
The most critical aspect is speed, which informs every part of the response. Beijing did not hesitate in shutting schools and imposing various restrictions on gyms, bars and other venues.
Speed is also crucial in building capacity. There is no point in keeping massive infrastructure in place when cases are low. Instead, governments need to be prepared to scale up quickly when a wave arrives.
Over the last two weeks, Beijing has built 26 new test centres and doubled its testing capacity, to 230,000 tests a day. By pooling samples, it means one million people can be screened every day. So far 2.3 million people have been tested.
China hasn't bothered with the sort of contact tracing app that the UK has struggled to get off the ground. Instead, it goes straight to the source...
... neighbourhood health committees knocking on doors to make sure people follow the app's instructions.
北京的案例表明即使第二波疫情不能避免,但它并不是一个不可避免的灾难。英国在第一波疫情中从中国学习经验并应用的速度很慢。在第二波疫情中,英国不应该犯同样的错误。
Beijing shows that even if a second wave is inevitable, it is not inevitably catastrophic. The UK was slow to learn and apply the lessons from the first wave in China. It shouldn't make the same mistake for the second.
