Li Keqiang’s visit to this hospital is a great signal!

　　"Cancer is related to thousands of people in Qian Qian, and it is a major pain point for people’s livelihood. I’m here to find out on the spot what ‘ Get stuck in the neck ’ Factors? What policy support does the government need to overcome cancer? " On December 12th, Premier Li Keqiang had a "standing talk" with more than 20 oncologists in wuhan union hospital.

　　At an executive meeting in the State Council two months ago, the Prime Minister made a clear request to concentrate superior scientific research forces to carry out special key research on the treatment of difficult and high-incidence cancer. On the morning of December 12th, Li Keqiang came to wuhan union hospital to visit children with leukemia, and had in-depth exchanges with oncologists to overcome cancer and other issues.

　　Nothing can be short of "treatment", and nothing can be short of "life-saving medicine"

　　"Can domestic medicine be bought now? How much is each bottle? " Walking into the ward of the Children’s Hematological Diagnosis and Treatment Center, Li Keqiang asked the families of children with leukemia.

　　Earlier, the Prime Minister gave instructions in response to media reports that "children with leukemia suffered from a shortage of cheap domestic drugs and a bottle of imported drugs exceeded 1,000 yuan", and asked relevant departments to "take care of each other and handle special matters, effectively increase the production and supply of domestic cheap drugs, and effectively solve the problem of ‘ The pain of medication ’ " . During this visit to children with leukemia, he especially learned about this situation from their parents.

　　"Medicine can be bought, and the price is no problem!" The father of a child told the Prime Minister.

　　"Nothing can be short ‘ Treatment ’ You can’t lack anything ‘ Life-saving medicine ’ ！” The Prime Minister said, "Please rest assured that these drugs will be fully guaranteed by the state, not only for short-term emergency, but also for long-term supply. We must never stop taking drugs!"

　　Li Keqiang also inquired about the shortage of other "orphan drugs" from medical staff in detail, and told the heads of health departments to "make a list", improve policies and mechanisms, and effectively ensure the long-term and stable supply of urgent needs such as "orphan drugs".

　　In the "Pediatric Hematology Ward Love School", the Prime Minister specially brought a gift to each of several children with leukemia who were drawing: a magnetic jigsaw puzzle of the world map. "I hope you will treat it well and measure the world with your feet when you grow up." The Prime Minister said.

　　"That’s great! My wish is to be a gourmet and travel all over the world! " A child took the gift and said happily.

　　Another 7-year-old boy offered to take a photo with the Prime Minister’s grandfather. After the Prime Minister readily agreed, the little boy added, "Can I have two photos?"

　　"Must give, one person two! If you can’t get it, write to grandpa. " The Prime Minister immediately promised, "I want to ask, why do you want two?"

　　"I can’t tell you, it’s a secret!" The little boy’s answer made everyone present laugh.

　　What policies the health sector needs, the state must fully support it.

　　After leaving this loving school, Li Keqiang went to the doctor’s office and inquired about the latest research and clinical progress in overcoming cancer. The two experts introduced their respective methods of vesicular therapy and CAR-T cell therapy for tumors. Li Keqiang said, "I feel very happy and gratified! Some developed countries proposed to overcome the pathogenesis of cancer decades ago, and now our country’s research and treatment technology to overcome cancer has also reached a new level. "

　　"What else is there to conquer cancer ‘ Get stuck in the neck ’ Factors that need national key support? " Li Keqiang asked. An expert said that the current problems are: first, insufficient clinical funds; second, imperfect quality control standards for cell therapy; third, slow drug approval and long transformation time.

　　"The issue of drug approval should be accelerated, but it is necessary to ensure the absolute safety of drugs!" The Prime Minister said.

　　He asked the person in charge of the accompanying health department to fully listen to the opinions of doctors and patients and come up with a targeted report as soon as possible: "Let’s work together to strive for an important step in the pathological research and treatment of cancer at an early date and save more lives. What policies the health department needs, the state must fully support it! "

　　"You said before that we have been in ‘ Heaven ’ 、‘ Going to sea ’ We have made good progress in major scientific research projects, and we will strive to overcome medical life problems that affect people’s health in the future. This is very encouraging! " An oncologist said to the Prime Minister.

　　"Cancer is a major pain in people’s livelihood." Li Keqiang said, "Life science, including cancer, is as important as cosmic science and marine science. You are studying and exploring at the forefront of life medicine, which is related to the health of thousands of people in Qian Qian and has a great responsibility! "

　　Before leaving, Li Keqiang once again asked the experts what policy suggestions they had. A leukemia expert asked whether the current leukemia medical insurance policy for poor children in rural areas can benefit all leukemia children in view of the good treatment effect of childhood leukemia.

　　The Prime Minister immediately asked the person in charge of the health department to "pay close attention to research". He said that at present, China has achieved full coverage of major illness insurance, so that more patients can reduce their burdens. Cancer is an important part of major diseases. It is necessary to gather superior scientific research forces to focus on tackling cancer difficulties and let more patients and their families get out of the shadow of the disease as soon as possible!
