>Medical workers can raise alarms

上海:医护报告享免责权

Medical workers are entitled to report suspected cases of new types of contagions to the local health authority and those who raise false alarms due to errors of judgment will be exempted from legal liability, according to new measures rolled out in Shanghai. Doctors and nurses who discover novel cases of diseases that have the potential to infect others also have the right to suggest the institution where they work takes high-level protective steps under epidemic prevention and control protocols, according to the Measures of Shanghai Municipality on the Protection of Rights and Interests of Medical and Healthcare Workers. The measures, the first of their kind unveiled by a provincial-level government, were published on Wednesday and will take effect on March 1.

《上海市医疗卫生人员权益保障办法》2020年12月30日正式发布，并将于2021年3月1日起实施。根据《办法》规定，医疗卫生人员发现存在传染危害的新型病例，有权直接向卫生健康主管部门报告，并建议所在医疗卫生机构采取高级别的防护措施。医疗卫生人员因判断错误而报告的，依法免除其法律责任。这是全国首部专门规范医疗卫生人员权益保障的省级政府规章。

Luo Peixin, deputy director of the Shanghai Municipal Justice Bureau, said frontline healthcare workers are closest to patients and likely have the best firsthand knowledge about such novel cases. They may help keep the city's health authorities up-to-date on the latest situation of certain contagions, he explained.

上海市司法局副局长罗培新介绍，考虑到医疗卫生人员最接近病患，也是获得相关传染病信息的第一手来源的最早接触者，他们可以让卫生部门更快获知传染病的最新信息。

The measures, comprising 42 articles, also ban all threats or harm against medical workers and their families.

此次发布的《办法》共有42条，其中还明确禁止对医务工作者及其家属进行任何威胁或伤害。
