Abstract:

Wuhan was sealed off from all outside contact on January 23, 2020. Chinese government′s firm conviction and strong determination to fight against the epidemic had been fully demonstrated. Since January 25, 2020, the Chinese New Year′s eve, a total of 42,000 medical staffs including military and local medical personnel rushed to support Wuhan. How to establish harmonious doctor-patient relationship according to trust in the special period of COVID-19 pandemic is the key point. Based on years of clinical experience and experience in fighting the epidemic in Wuhan, I believe that to build trust, we need to do the following five things: clear goals, a good reason for waging treatment; sophisticated technology, accurate diagnosis and treatment; perceptive inquiry and physical examination; to cure sometimes, to relieve often, to comfort always; keep in touch with patients frequently. Undeniably, the five key points had been achieved, and doctors and patients trust each other, establishing harmonious doctor-patient relationship together in the fighting of COVID-19 pandemic, which plays positive significance for the diagnosis and treatment of patients with COVID-19.

Key words: Communicable disease control, Trust, Doctor-patient relationship
