Abstract:
In a recent report, the British Broadcasting Company (BBC) introduced South Korea\'s measures to manage COVID-19 as role model for the world. Screening centers serve as frontiers for preventing community transmission of infectious diseases. COVID-19 screening centers in Korea operate 24 h a day, always open for individuals with suspected COVID-19 symptoms. South Korea concentrated COVID-19 screening centers around cities with high population density. Advanced screening centers (models C, D, and E) proved more effective and efficient in the prevention of COVID-19 than the traditional screening centers (models A and B). Particularly, screening centers at Incheon Airport in South Korea prevent transmission through imported cases effectively. It will be important elsewhere, as in South Korea, to establish an infectious disease delivery system that can lead to \'Test-Treat-Track\' using an adequate model of screening centers.
摘要:
在最近的一份报告中,英国广播公司(BBC)介绍了韩国作为世界榜样管理COVID-19的措施。筛查中心是预防传染病社区传播的前沿。韩国的COVID-19筛查中心每天24小时运营,始终对有疑似COVID-19症状的个体开放。韩国将COVID-19筛查中心集中在人口密度高的城市周围。高级筛查中心(型号C,D,和E)被证明在预防COVID-19方面比传统的筛查中心(模型A和B)更有效。特别是,韩国仁川机场的筛查中心有效防止了通过进口病例传播。这在其他地方很重要,就像在韩国一样,使用适当的筛查中心模型,建立可以导致“测试-治疗-跟踪”的传染病输送系统。
