Comparison of Li Jiachao and Yuan Guoyong's remarks on epidemic investigation and review


1) Reasons for review and non-review


Yuan Guoyong January 26:


The government should conduct a review on this epidemic as it did after the SARS epidemic, because infectious diseases have become a very important issue in the world.

Government Expert Advisor Yuan Guoyong January 26

Xu Shuchang January 26

The main purpose is to review and find out the deficiencies so that the response methods can be improved to deal with large-scale epidemics in the future.

Government Expert Advisor Xu Shuchang January 26

Liu Yulong January 27

There must be a review system, and the competition must be reviewed after each game, otherwise how will the next wave be played well?

Government Expert Advisor Liu Yulong January 27

Kong Fanyi January 31

In fact, these inspections can not only be improved, but also can be done better if there is another epidemic in the future, but also the entire medical system, especially the care of the elderly.

Kong Fanyi, government expert advisor January 31

Li Jiachao January 31

In the past three years, the world has faced brand-new viruses, and countries have tried to respond quickly and immediately, but there is no 100% correct response method.

2) The object of the review?


Yuan Guoyong January 26:

Tracking and isolation were not good enough in the early stages of the epidemic, and the reasons for the failure of nursing homes in the fifth wave must be found out, because most of them will happen here next time, and all these things need to be re-examined.

Government Expert Advisor Yuan Guoyong January 26

Kong Fanyi January 31

In fact, it will not be aimed at any individual or organization. The main thing is to review the whole thing. After three years of anti-epidemic work, what shortcomings do we have, and what can we do better, so that the same epidemic will break out again in the future? The response is faster and more improved, which is important.

Kong Fanyi, government expert advisor January 31

Liu Yulong January 27

There is really a big problem with our policy on the elderly, especially those who are homesick and disabled.

So the most basic thing for Yijia to do is to win the trust of the people, and the people's hearts must be reviewed.

Government Expert Advisor Liu Yulong January 27

Li Jiachao January 31

I agree that the government needs to sum up experience and face different new risks in the future. The new government has been doing continuous inspections since seven months ago, including the establishment of a new command structure.

3) Are reviews beneficial?


Yuan Guoyong January 26:

Don't underestimate the inspection of the epidemic situation. During the pandemic, we all said to do better. After a few years, no one cares about it.

Government Expert Advisor Yuan Guoyong January 26

Kong Fanyi January 31

Personally, I am in favor of having an independent investigation committee. The purpose of the committee is to review the deficiencies in the anti-epidemic work in the past three years, and how to do better, so that if there is another outbreak in the future, the overall measures will also be different in all aspects. Return can be increased.

Kong Fanyi, government expert advisor January 31

Li Jiachao January 31

I do not agree with the establishment of an independent investigation committee. There are two goals in the new stage of the epidemic, which is to comprehensively promote economic development and make arrangements for normalization. Looking forward... the actual epidemic situation must be handled according to the situation we are facing Do it, write 100 plans today, and listen to new epidemic changes or new diseases every day, the 101st plan and the 102nd case will appear.

Chief Executive Lee Kar-chao January 31
