China's epidemic prevention and control highlights the political advantages of the Party

Yi Yiping

In the face of the new coronary pneumonia epidemic, which has spread the fastest, the widest range of infection and the most difficult to prevent and control since the founding of New China, the urgent time, arduous task and scale of the epidemic are rare in the world, we have achieved important results in the prevention and control of the national epidemic, accelerated the recovery of production and living order, and achieved positive results in the overall promotion of epidemic prevention and control and economic and social development, fully demonstrating the political advantages of the Party's centralized leadership, unified command and cohesion.

This advantage is fully reflected in centralized leadership

Adhering to the leadership of the Party in all work is the fundamental and lifeline of the Party and the country, and the interests and happiness of all ethnic groups in the country. After the outbreak of the epidemic, General Secretary Xi Jinping and the Party Central Committee insisted on putting the safety and health of the people's lives and bodies first, and comprehensively strengthened the centralized and unified leadership of epidemic prevention and control. General Secretary Xi Jinping personally commanded and deployed, took the helm, guided and controlled the direction, paid close attention to the progress of epidemic prevention and control at all times, and made a series of important speeches and instructions, leading the whole party, army, and people of all ethnic groups in the country to resolutely fight against the epidemic. He has become a strong backbone of the whole party, army, and people of all ethnic groups in the country, demonstrating the responsibility of the leaders of a great country. The Central Committee of the Communist Party of China promptly formulated strategies for epidemic prevention and control, and issued a notice on strengthening the leadership of the Party and providing strong political guarantees for winning the battle against epidemic prevention and control.

Under the strong leadership of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China, the Central Leading Group for Epidemic Response has held multiple meetings to thoroughly study and implement the important speeches and instructions of General Secretary Xi Jinping, and timely study and solve problems in epidemic prevention and control, material security, scientific research and development, resumption of work and production, caring for people, cross-border input and other prevention and control work. The State Council's joint prevention and control mechanism has fully played its role, increasing policy coordination and material allocation efforts. The Central Committee of the Communist Party of China dispatched a central guidance group to Hubei to strengthen the guidance of frontline work in epidemic prevention and control, effectively solving critical issues in epidemic prevention and control in Hubei and Wuhan. Leading groups for epidemic prevention and control have been established in various regions, party, government, military, and mass organizations, enterprises and institutions, townships, streets, and village community party organizations. The main leaders of the party and government personally lead the work, taking responsibility for guarding the land, and fulfilling their duties, effectively enhancing the sense of victory, responsibility, benevolence, and caution, resolutely implementing the decisions and deployments of the Party Central Committee on epidemic prevention and control, implementing orders and prohibitions, keeping pace, and effectively promoting epidemic prevention and control work.

This advantage is fully reflected in unified command

The COVID-19 is both a crisis and a big test. Unified orders, unified commands, and unified actions are the fundamental basis for achieving comprehensive victory in epidemic prevention and control. Under the unified command of General Secretary Xi Jinping and the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China, we insist on playing a game of chess for the whole country, concentrate our advantageous forces at the fastest speed, and resolutely fight the battles of defending Hubei and Wuhan. The People's Liberation Army soldiers quickly gathered and rushed to the front lines of epidemic prevention and control in Hubei and Wuhan, taking on urgent, difficult, and dangerous tasks without hesitation; More than 40000 medical staff from all over the country, carrying advanced medical equipment, rushed to assist Wuhan and Hubei; The two hospitals, Huoshenshan and Leishenshan, were connected and built within more than 10 days, and multiple makeshift hospitals were quickly completed; Organize 19 provinces to provide targeted support for the treatment and prevention and control work of 16 cities, prefectures, and county-level cities in Hubei Province, except for Wuhan City; Implement national unified dispatch for important materials, prioritize the protection of medical and production materials for epidemic prevention and control in Hubei Province and Wuhan City, ensure the supply of essential daily necessities for residents, establish a "green channel" for transportation, and quickly and conveniently deliver them to the front line of epidemic prevention and control. When the epidemic broke out on a large scale, medical material production enterprises were mostly in a state of shutdown or semi shutdown due to the Spring Festival holiday. Party committees and governments at all levels coordinated and worked together to fully initiate the resumption of work and production of medical material production enterprises. Central enterprises fully played the role of the main force and national team, regardless of cost or conditions, and accelerated the transformation and expansion of production in a wartime state. Scientific researchers across the country actively participated in scientific research on epidemic prevention and control. The National Health Commission has issued the seventh edition of the Diagnosis and Treatment Plan for novel coronavirus Pneumonia. Adhering to the combination of traditional Chinese and western medicine, it has effectively reduced the incidence of mild illness becoming severe and severe illness becoming critical. Multiple technical routes for vaccine research and development have been promoted in parallel, making important progress.

General Secretary Xi Jinping and the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China have accurately grasped the stage changes in domestic and international epidemic prevention and control and economic situation, adjusted the focus of work and response measures according to the time and situation, and timely deployed further coordinated efforts to promote epidemic prevention and control and economic and social development. Under the normalization of epidemic prevention, party committees and governments at all levels are accelerating the restoration of production and living order, actively and orderly promoting the resumption of work and production of enterprises and institutions, implementing precise policies to fully solve the needs of enterprises for employment, funding, raw material supply, etc., breaking through "bottlenecks" and filling in "breakpoints", and striving to improve the resumption of work and production rate. Actively plan and categorize policies, give priority to supporting the development of service industries such as cultural and sports tourism, accommodation and catering, transportation and logistics that have been greatly affected by the epidemic, and orderly promote the resumption of work and operation of various shopping malls and markets, as well as the normal operation of the life service industry. As of March 28th, the average operating rate and resumption rate of industrial enterprises above designated size in China have reached 98.6% and 89.9% respectively, and the resumption rate of small and medium-sized enterprises has reached 76%.

This advantage is fully reflected in the ability to concentrate and unite

Arming the people and rallying strength with the party's innovative theory is an important magic weapon for the development of the cause of socialism with Chinese characteristics. Xi Jinping's Thought on Socialism with Chinese Characteristics for a New Era has become a powerful spiritual pillar and ideological weapon for the entire party, the entire army, and the people of all ethnic groups throughout the country, bringing hundreds of millions of Chinese people together to fight the epidemic in unity and step by step. Facing the "most beautiful retrograde" in various fields and fronts such as virus plague, medical and health, public security and fire protection, material support, scientific research, military armed police, news and propaganda, people's livelihood supply, voluntary service, etc., actively respond to General Secretary Xi Jinping and the Party Central Committee Call, do not flinch at critical moments, do not fear in times of crisis, do not hesitate, go retrograde, fight day and night, stick firmly, silently, no regrets, it shows the style of the times with high spirits and solidarity. More than 40000 party members, cadres and employees in Wuhan sank into more than 3000 communities and carried out multiple rounds of dragnet, carpet, and grid investigations to achieve "no leakage of one household or one person". 94000 serving party members of government organs, enterprises and institutions in Beijing reported to the community to enrich the grass-roots forces and participate in the prevention and control of the epidemic. The broad masses of the people obey the command, obey the overall situation, unite as one, do their best, strictly implement the regulations, abide by the order, overcome all kinds of difficulties and discomforts, actively cooperate with the prevention and control work, and build a protective wall to prevent the virus from invading.

Epidemic prevention and control is a big test of China's governance system and governance capacity. In this great war test, the Party Central Committee with Comrade Xi Jinping as the core, with great political courage, superb leadership, firm will, and strong responsibility, promoted the scientific and orderly prevention and control of the epidemic, relaxed, and relaxed. The freedom and decisive victory demonstrated strong political leadership, ideological leadership, mass organization, and social appeal. This is a concentrated manifestation of the party's political advantages. Practice has proved that our party's political advantages of centralized leadership, unified command, and cohesion are the fundamental guarantee for doing a good job in all the work of the party and the state, and the "sea-fixing needle" for overcoming all difficulties and risks ".
