The fifth wave of the epidemic has become unstoppable. Recently, many cases have not sought medical treatment immediately after the onset of the disease, or have not arranged for testing after seeing a doctor. Disguised delays in identifying confirmed cases have cut off the chain of transmission, and community outbreaks are difficult to stop. .


Some family doctors said that since the outbreak of the epidemic, the industry has been in accordance with legal requirements and professional judgment, distributing test sample bottles to patients suspected of having symptoms of the new coronavirus, and issuing mandatory testing orders from the Department of Health.

All sample test vials must be computer-registered once they are distributed, and then sent directly to the Department of Health for follow-up.

When the epidemic eased a few months ago, everyone's mentality was relatively "don't worry about it", "you can always look back and turn around and you can do better." He also pointed out that now everyone in the industry is "doing everything", and their attitudes have become more rigorous, even if Patients with common colds and colds will be arranged for testing.

Family doctor Lin Yonghe believes that whenever a patient goes to a private clinic for medical treatment, but does not find the diagnosis right away, "you can always look back and turn around and do better. IKEA is under a lot of pressure." He said frankly that three months ago, he felt more "not worried" at the time. When he suggested some patients to take a test before, the patient seemed reluctant, saying that he "has had an injection, or only had a test a few days ago." and refused.

Until recently, even when I encountered a patient who might just have a common cold, my attitude seemed relatively nervous.

He also said that when a patient sees a doctor, the safety procedures that should be done have already been "done in the sun." He also said that even if they encounter an influenza period later, the front-line doctors are "not surprised."

Family doctor Zheng Zhiwen said that samples have always been sent to patients suspected of being infected with the new coronavirus according to legal requirements, and each patient's information will be entered into a computer and transmitted to the Department of Health.

He believes that the industry has done "everything" and disagrees with the statement that "a sore throat is mostly Omicron's symptoms".

He said that although some people believe that everyone wearing a mask now will reduce the infection of cold bacteria, not every patient who has a respiratory disease and seeks medical treatment is necessarily an Omicron case.

He also pointed out that private doctors will always follow up with patients and remind them to submit samples until the results are reported.

As for two days earlier, there were confirmed patients who had sought medical treatment in private clinics but did not have immediate tests. Zheng Zhiwen said he felt "blaming."

Zheng Zhiwen said he felt "criminal in nature." He believes that the industry has "do everything".
