In response to such problems, Shanghai has issued corresponding measures, in the future will be living alone in the elderly, seriously ill patients, people with disabilities who can not take care of themselves, as well as special hardship families to give special help. This time will be as soon as possible to identify similar problems, so that the neighborhood committees as soon as possible to count the elderly population of the situation of the use of medication, the formation of statistical sheets, and then let the volunteers to dispense medication. This measure gives hope to the people in need, the government departments need to deploy additional manpower to solve the problem as soon as possible, do not let them wait too long.
The specifics of this matter.
From the exposure of the call records can be understood that the elderly, at that time, the need for supplies and medicines are no longer available, coupled with the body is not feeling well, I hope to go to the hospital as soon as possible for treatment. The person in charge of the neighborhood committee was informed that the old man's situation has been reported, but did not receive a reply for a long time. April 7 the old man was diagnosed as a new crown positive, April 7 the old man appeared to be obviously uncomfortable and accompanied by symptoms of low fever, April 12, the old man to the neighborhood committee to reflect their own body is very difficult to hear from the recordings of the old man at that time is very anxious to prolong every minute for him to be tormented. And the person in charge is also very uneasy, he has been in the terms of reference, for the elderly to do everything, can only be passive waiting for the superior arrangements. Finally on April 13, the afternoon the old man was sent to the local hospital for treatment.
What do I think about this?
This is still the case for exposed emergencies, while those who have yet to receive media attention may be waiting helplessly every day. According to statistics, there are 5.81 million people over the age of 60 in Shanghai, of whom 310,000 live alone. What are they going to do in the face of the epidemic? They don't know how to use electronics. Nor can they ask for help on social platforms when they are in trouble, a situation far more dangerous than the virus. These elderly people may be suffering from chronic diseases or other underlying conditions, and contracting the virus will put them in greater danger than younger people, and if they stop taking their medication because of the epidemic, then they will be in another danger.
