上海医疗机构示范性发热门诊综合楼启用 - 2021年12月31日

A comprehensive fever clinic building opened at Renji Hospital's Pudong branch on Thursday, the latest effort to enhance the city's ability on coronavirus prevention and control.

The 5,000-square-meter building has some 30 quarantine wards, including 26 with negative air pressure. To avoid cross-infection, there is a special CT room and nucleic acid testing laboratory in the building.

"There is a special route to guide fever patients to the building to avoid unnecessary contact with other patients and reduce risk. While arriving at the fever clinic, patients must undergo nucleic acid and blood tests and epidemiological investigation, reports of which can be sent to local center for disease control and prevention online in order to enhance work efficiency," said Zhang Jidong, vice president of Renji Hospital.
