论武汉新发传染病预防控制的优势与短板

Discussion on advantages and disadvantages in prevention and control of emerging infectious disease in Wuhan

在评价全国32个省会城市和计划单列市新发传染病预防控制能力的基础上,聚焦分析了武汉的优势和短板:具备依法防疫的法律基础,但未转化成有效的行动;具有应对疫情的组织基础,平战结合的协调机制未有效建立;管理机制齐备,但部门间职责分工不明确;监测网络已建立,但“预测预警”的作用并未发挥;“投入不足导致职能偏废”的现象开始回头。各地的新发传染病预防控制能力均是优势与短板并存,应当怀有警醒之心,“补短板、堵漏洞、强弱项”,亡羊补牢,为时未晩。

On the basis of systematic evaluation of 32 provincial capital cities and municipalities in their capacity for preventing and controlling emerging infectious diseases,focus analysis is made on Wuhan in relation to its advantages and disadvantages as follows:There has been a legal basis for epidemic prevention according to law,but it has not translated into effective action.There has been an organizational basis for responding to epidemic,but coordination mechanism has not been effectively established.The management mechanism has been complete,but the division of responsibilities among different departments has not been clear.The monitoring network has been set up,but its role of“predictive warning”has not been played.Insufficiency of public health service delivery was observed owing to lack of financial investment.In cities of China,advantages and disadvantages have been both existent in their capacity to prevent and control of emerging infectious disease.We should be vigilant in this regard.It is imperative to“fill defects,stop leaks and strengthen weakness”.There is a Chinese saying:“It is not too late to mend a fold after the sheep have been stolen”.
