At 12 o’clock at noon on 8th April, an online conference named "The Belt and Road for Health-Dialogue on Prevention and Control of COVID-19" was conducted in the First Affiliated Hospital of Wenzhou Medical University. At the other end of the video call, there were overseas medical experts in Indonesia and Mongolia. Medical and nursing experts of epidemic prevention and control from the 1st Affiliated Hospital of Wenzhou Medical University shared with the overseas medical experts about their protective measures and lessons against COVID-19.

As the sole designated provincial and municipal hospital admitting critically ill patients in Wenzhou, the 1st Affiliated Hospital of Wenzhou Medical University admitted 81% of moderately and critically ill patients. It was the main battlefield against COVID-19 in Wenzhou. From practices, it has explored the “Wenzhou strategies”, which not only protected all its medical personnel from infection but also fully avoided missed diagnosis of COVID-19 cases. Thus, it has maximized the survival of critically ill patients.

At present, Indonesia and Mongolia are in the initial stage of COVID-19 prevention and control. Owing to their limited medical conditions, both of the countries are in urgent need of Chinese medical institutions’ sharing with them about their valuable lessons on COVID-19 prevention and control, especially key technologies like diagnostic strategies.

As the leader of the Wenzhou expert panel for preventing and treating COVID-19 by traditional Chinese medicine, Professor Cheng Jinguo introduced how to treat COVID-19 with traditional Chinese medicine, important roles of traditional Chinese medicine, “three drugs and three prescriptions” recommended by the National Administration of Traditional Chinese Medicine, strengths of TCM prevention and other TCM therapies with “Wenzhou characteristics”.

Professor Cao Jianming particularly introduced that medical resources were properly distributed and hospitals fully cooperated with each other to build three major medical battlefields to precisely treat different types of COVID-19 patients, thus ensuring “unified command, unified standards, and unified treatment” for medical treatment and guarantee procedures of Wenzhou.

In combination with the hospital’s experience in COVID-19 prevention and patients treatment, Professor Xia Jinglin introduced the experience of the 1st Affiliated Hospital of Wenzhou Medical University in COVID-19 diagnosis, treatment, prevention, and control. In the epidemic period, the hospital promptly summed up its experience. At last, it reached three expert consensuses and brought forth one expert viewpoint to guide and coordinate treatment in county, city and district-level hospitals. 

Professor Zhuge Qichuan of the Neurosurgery Department held a sharing session known as “New Measures against COVID-19: Introduction of Wenzhou’s Experience”. Professor Li Yuping, as Head of the Department of Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine, shared her experience regarding how to effectively preventing patients with mild symptoms from progressing into critically ill patients. As Head of the Nursing Department, Sun Caixia shared her experience with the theme of “Hospital Management for COVID-19 Wards: Examination, Screening and Patient Triage”.

Medical experts of Indonesia and Mongolia were listening before the video very carefully, and raised many in-depth questions about problems with their countries’ COVID-19 prevention and control in the subsequent questioning and answering part.

“There are no borders in the field of medicine. I hope that we could share our relatively mature "Wenzhou experience" on COVID-19 prevention and control with other countries to help them better prevent and control the epidemic, in order to save more patients,” said Professor Xia Jinlin.

作为温州唯一一家收治危重症患者的省、市两级定点医院，温医大附一院收治患者中重症达81%，是温州的抗疫主战场。从实践中探索出了“温州方案”，既保护自己的医务人员零感染，又实现新冠肺炎零漏诊，最大限度地提高了危重症患者生存率。

目前，印尼与蒙古国正处于新冠肺炎疫情防控初期阶段。由于医疗条件限制，两国亟需我国医疗机构分享防控宝贵经验，特别是诊疗方案等关键技术。

作为温州市新冠肺炎中医药防治专家指导组组长的程锦国教授详细介绍了如何用中医药治疗新冠肺炎、中医药的重要作用、国家中医药管理局推荐的“三药三方”以及中医药预防的优势等独具“温州特色”的中医治疗方案。

曹建明教授重点介绍了温州合理布局医疗资源，各大医院通力合作，构建三大医疗战场，对不同类型的新冠肺炎患者精准施治，实现了温州医疗救治及保障流程的“统一指挥、统一标准、统一医治”。

夏景林教授结合医院疫情防控和患者救治经验，介绍了温医大附一院新冠肺炎诊断、治疗、预防和控制的经验。疫情期间及时总结经验形成三个专家共识和一个专家观点，指导协调县市区医院救治。

神经外科诸葛启钏教授作了题为“应对疫情的新措施：温州的经验介绍”的分享。呼吸与危重症医学科主任李玉苹教授针对如何有效防止轻症患者向重症发展的问题做了经验交流。护理部主任孙彩霞以“新冠病房医院管理：检筛、患者分流”为题作经验分享。

印尼和蒙古两国医疗专家们在视频前非常认真地聆听，并在随后的问答环节针对本国疫情防控工作中存在的问题不断深入提问。
