  How did the Qingdao routine test find two asymptomatic infections?

  Answer: This is due to the regular inspection system adopted by us to normalize epidemic prevention and control.

In accordance with the unified deployment of Shandong Province, the city continues to carry out “exhaustive inspections” nucleic acid testing for 14 key personnel, including medical and health institutions, port quarantine, cold chain food and other related industries that are tested every 14 days.

At present, we have carried out three rounds of regular inspections of “due inspections and due diligence”, accumulatively testing key populations of 573,100 people. This time, the two asymptomatic infections are carrying out regular routine inspections of “due inspections and due diligence” personnel from Qingdao Port Dagang Company. Found during inspection.

  Can you tell us about the current situation of these two asymptomatic infections?

  Answer: The two asymptomatic infected persons are all stevedores in the same class of Qingdao Port Dagang Company.

On September 24, their nucleic acid test results were positive, and they did not feel any symptoms of discomfort. CT examination found no clinical symptoms, and the IgM serum antibody test results were negative. Our expert group judged that they were early infections, which also showed that it was the first time. Was found.

At present, the two people are under isolation and observation in designated hospitals, and their physical condition is stable.

If it is not for regular routine testing, early detection is impossible.

  Will the Qingdao epidemic prevention and control response level be adjusted?

  Answer: At present, the epidemic prevention and control in Shandong Province is still a three-level response, and various normalized prevention and control measures in our city have been effectively implemented.

After the outbreak, our city immediately took effective measures to deal with it decisively.

So far, 147 close contacts and 228 close contacts of close contacts have been investigated. All of them are under centralized quarantine and observation, and the nucleic acid test results are all negative; the general contacts and community investigation populations are 4341, and the nucleic acid test results are all Negative; A total of 1,440 samples of imported cold chain products and environmental samples were collected, and nucleic acid tests were completed. A total of 51 positive samples were detected.

At the same time, the scope of testing was further expanded, and 89,182 samples of key populations including employees in the cold chain industry have been collected, and all nucleic acid test results were negative.

According to our expert team's research and judgment, from the current situation, the source of the epidemic is clear, the transmission chain is clear, and the risk of community transmission is low. The current prevention and control measures are accurate and effective, and there is no need to adjust the level of epidemic prevention and control response.
