Guo Yanhong, supervisor of the medical administration of the National Health Commission, said on the 26th that unpaid blood donation is not only an embodiment of the socialist core values and the spirit of benevolence, but also an act that needs to be promoted and encouraged. Bringing unpaid blood donation into the social credit investigation system is to encourage more citizens to participate in unpaid blood donation.
Recently, some netizens questioned that unpaid blood donation will be included in the credit investigation system, suspecting that voluntary behavior has become a 'soft compulsion'. In this regard, Guo Yanhong said that unpaid blood donation is a concentrated embodiment of carrying forward the spirit of 'benevolence, fraternity and dedication'. Without donated blood, many medical work cannot be carried out. For some special patients, blood is an important means to save their lives.
Guo Yanhong pointed out that unpaid blood donation is a voluntary act. The blood donation law of the people's Republic of China clearly points out that the State implements the system of unpaid blood donation and advocates healthy citizens aged 18 to 55 to donate blood voluntarily. Unpaid blood donation is more a concrete embodiment of the socialist core values and the spirit of benevolence, which is the positive energy of society and needs to be promoted and encouraged.
Guo Yanhong said that in the recent notice on further promoting the development of unpaid blood donation issued by the health commission in conjunction with the spiritual civilization office of the Central Propaganda Department and ten departments of the national development and Reform Commission, in terms of improving the incentive mechanism for unpaid blood donation, the incentive for unpaid blood donation is divided into several measures. One of the measures is to bring unpaid blood donation into the social credit investigation system. The social credit investigation system has two functions.
On the one hand, it is to punish dishonesty, but on the more important hand, it is to praise integrity, that is, we should strengthen the incentive to keep faith. Unpaid blood donation is not only an embodiment of the socialist core values and the spirit of benevolence, but also an act that needs to be carried forward and encouraged. The important reason for bringing unpaid blood donation into the social credit investigation system is to encourage more citizens to participate in unpaid blood donation, so that the good deeds of more unpaid blood donors can be supported and affirmed in a wider range, and the dedication can be praised more. At the same time, not donating blood will not affect personal credit, nor will it bring disciplinary measures.
Guo Yanhong also pointed out that this practice stems from local practice. For example, Weihai, Jiangxi, Zhejiang and Jiangsu in Shandong all take unpaid blood donation as good information to add points to individuals. In medical treatment, financial activities and cultural activities, we can enjoy some preferential treatment to effectively promote unpaid blood donation.
She stressed that the health commission used the word "exploration" in the document. On the one hand, the word "exploration" is to make all localities adjust measures to local conditions and combine with reality. At the same time, it should be gradual and orderly, so as to really give full play to such a positive role of praising integrity and encouraging trustworthiness in the social credit investigation system.
