Core Tip The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic is an emerging, rapidly evolving situation, and effective treatment measures are difficult to formulate in a short time. Public health policies and containment measures play a vital role in the prevention and control of COVID-19. Policies such as “the lockdown of Wuhan”, “initiating a first-level response to major public health emergencies” and “implementing the closed management of residential communities” significantly controlled the spread of COVID-19. Optimizing the diagnosis process, shortening the diagnosis time, and constructing teams of clinical experts facilitated the provision of “one team of medical experts for each patient” treatment for severe cases, significantly improved the recovery rate and reduced the incidence rate (1.84/100000) and the infection fatality rate [1.04% (6/576)] of COVID-19.
