On March 18, Zhong Nanshan, an academician of the Chinese Academy of Engineering, expressed his personal views on the drug treatment, vaccine development, and overseas epidemic prevention and control of New Coronary Pneumonia at a press conference held by the Press Office of the People's Government of Guangzhou City. Zhong Nanshan said that as of now, there is no specific treatment for this virus. Once new coronary pneumonia develops into critical illness, treatment can be very difficult. Zhong Nanshan suggested not to wait until the patient has symptoms, but to isolate the relevant close contact groups as soon as possible to prevent the epidemic from further expanding. It is recommended that the prevention and control fronts of European countries move forward. Photo by Chen Xin, reporter from China News Agency
