"7C" principle and "Alcohol" method towards persevering control of COVID-19 infection in China

Abstract

2020 spring festival was and will be the most impressive festival to all Chinese people, due to the bitter memories but extraordinary courage to fight against the PHEIC announced by WHO on Feb 4th. Chinese scientists confirmed the pathogen in a very short time and Chinese government take enormous efforts to control the epidemic, locking down Wuhan and Hubei Province, dispatching thousands of medical doctors and nurses to Hubei to reduce the disease burden on local medical system. Many of them on the ground level work seven days a week without a break; the happy time accompanying with “alcohol” seems far away from their daily life, even COVID-19 cannot tolerate 75% ethanol.
