Abstract
: The novel coronavirus pneumonia is an infectious disease caused by the SARS-CoV-2 virus. It has been widely spread worldwide. At present, the situation of novel coronavirus epidemic prevention and control in China is still bleak. Waste disposal for the novel coronavirus should be standardized, a necessary measure for avoiding the re-spread of novel coronavirus and preventing secondary disasters. The management and disposal of medical waste is increasingly valued worldwide. International organizations represented by WHO are actively providing developing countries with comprehensive medical waste management and disposal systems to protect the health and environmental safety of people in more countries. The current investigation has found that there may be novel coronavirus in the medical waste. If the medical waste generated from the treatment of novel coronavirus pneumonia patients is not properly disposed of, it is likely to cause the novel pneumonia epidemic to break out again. Effective management of medical waste disposal related to novel coronavirus pneumonia is an essential requirement for the prevention and control of novel coronavirus pneumonia in medical waste disposal institutions. According to the types and hazards of medical waste and the characteristics of medical waste disposal, specific control measures are put forward for the management of the premises, personnel management, disposal of medical wastes, and emergency management.
