由于全球对新冠病毒检测试剂盒的需求猛增,安省刚刚修改了新冠病毒的检测规定,收紧标准并大幅限制了有资格接受检测的人群。
据CTV报道,安省卫生厅本周四发布了针对COVID-19检测的新指引。

根据新的规定,由于病毒鼻咽拭子供应有限,将不再对出国旅行并表现出疾病症状的个人进行检查。不过那些被认为是“可能”病例的患者可以接受检测。
根据政府网站上的一份通知,安省公共卫生局表示,由于新冠病毒大流行,全球对拭子的需求猛增。因为供应有限,安省将把检测留给弱势群体。

卫生厅长Christine Elliott的通讯主任Travis Khan表示,为了保证检测能力,有效利用试剂盒,以及考虑到所有海外旅行回来的人已经被要求自我隔离14天,我们将优先考虑那些有症状且没有旅行史的人。
这样,有资格做检测的人,包括:与确诊病例有接触并出现症状的人;因急性呼吸道疾病入院的人;出现症状的医护人员;群体感染中接受调查的人;住在长期护理中心和退休之家的人;以及原住民保留地的原住民。
上述以外的人要接受病毒检测,可以咨询本地公共卫生官员。这样做的目的是把最高风险的人士放在首位。
传染病专家Dr. Brian Conway指出,检测盒短缺的问题必须立即解决,否则将无法跟踪病毒的传播,无法完全掌握加拿大的流行情况,以及做更知情的决定。
Khan表示,安省政府正在努力采购更多检测试剂盒,等到有稳定供应的时候会重新扩大检测范围。他说,省府正在积极与生产商和供应链合作商合作,采购更多的检测试剂盒。以此之前,建议那些不符合资格做检测的人自我隔离,如果症状严重,如出现呼吸短促,可以前往医院就医。

试剂盒不足,以后的新冠感染人数就和中国开始时一样不准了.
 
这政策就跟武汉中期一样,说你是你就是。说不是是也不是。死了都不能当分母。别喷中国了,加拿大也好不到哪去。:mad:

Ontario limits who can be tested for COVID-19 due to demand for nasal swabs

TORONTO -- As global demand for COVID-19 testing kits surges, Ontario has tightened its criteria for who is eligible for the tests.
On Thursday, the province’s Ministry of Health released new guidance for the health sector to follow regarding COVID-19 testing.
Under the new protocols, individuals who travelled outside of the country and are exhibiting symptoms of the disease will no longer be tested because of limited supply of viral nasopharyngeal swabs. These excluded individuals have been defined as “probable” cases under the province’s guidance.

According to a notice posted on its website, the government agency Public Health Ontario states there is an “increased global demand” for the swabs due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
As a result of the limited supply, the province will be reserving testing for vulnerable groups.
“In an effort to maintain capacity and make better use of supply, and in recognition that anyone travelling outside of the country is being asked to self-isolate for 14 days, we’re prioritizing those individuals without travel history with symptoms,” Travis Khan, the communications director for Health Minister Christine Elliott, said in an email to CTVNews.ca on Saturday.
Individuals who are still eligible for testing include people with symptoms who are contacts of confirmed cases, those who have been admitted to hospital with acute respiratory illness, health-care workers with symptoms or who are part of an investigation into an institutional outbreak, people living in long-term care homes and retirement homes, and First Nation community members living on reserve.
“Testing outside of these recommendations based on public health and clinical judgement can be made in consultation with local public health officials,” the guidance states. “As this goal is for prioritization of those that are at highest risk, this… decision should be made by exception.”
Dr. Brian Conway, an infectious diseases expert, said the shortage of test kits needs to be addressed immediately in order to track the spread of the virus.
“It underscores the urgent need for us to have enough tests available to formally test everyone who has any symptoms or any risk of COVID-19,” he told CTV News Channel on Saturday. “This is really the only way we will completely understand what’s happening in the epidemic in Canada and make the most informed decisions possible.”
Khan said the province is working to procure more testing kits.
“We expect to return to expanded testing as soon as we’re confident in stable supply. To do so, we’re actively working with our manufacturing and supply chain partners to procure additional test kits,” he said.
Until then, individuals who are no longer eligible for testing have been advised to self-isolate or go to hospital if their symptoms significantly worsen, such as shortness of breath.
 
先买足够数量的 portable CT. 内什么,胖哥没砍医疗预算吧?
现在买也行呀,这疫情一时半会绝完不了,关键是大夫们有没有根据CT判断的本事。
 
这生产厂家都是哪些啊?中国厂家?
 
太长没看完,原来是症状+旅游史or 病人接触史,现在大概是症状+接触史
即我村只有和那几个确诊病人有接触的人才能测。

不是记得政府早说过已经准备好了吗?这测试中心才成立一天,我看现在也不需要了,找个小诊所就足够用了。
 
加拿大的卫生部门的官员都是些什么人呢? 我觉得智商都不如计算机的 AI 程序.
