As of 23:00 on October 11, the 6 confirmed cases of new coronary pneumonia and 6 asymptomatic infections discovered in Qingdao City, Shandong Province are all highly related to Qingdao Chest Hospital.

The area where the chest hospital is located has been upgraded to a medium-risk area.

  On October 12, "News 1+1" interpreted whether the Qingdao epidemic was related to hospitals.

Jiang Qingwu, a professor at the School of Public Health of Fudan University, said that the epidemic is highly related to the hospital, and there are still some issues to be investigated, such as where the infection occurred in these people, what was the time of infection, and whether there were co-infections among 12 people with positive nucleic acid.

During the National Day, 12 people left the hospital and moved in their own communities. They contacted people in the community. They also had certain community attributes.

  During the November period, Qingdao received nearly 4.5 million tourists.

Jiang Qingwu believes that because the National Day has just passed, some tourists who have traveled to Qingdao panic, which shows that the public is now highly vigilant against infectious diseases.

It is necessary for tourists from various places to pay attention to their health within two weeks.

However, the 6 confirmed cases and 6 asymptomatic infections are not tourists, but are local residents of Qingdao.

In this way, further circulation is needed to strictly define the scope of activities of these people.

  He mentioned that as soon as we are entering a period when respiratory infectious diseases are highly spread, everyone must wear masks in transportation and crowded places and take personal hygiene protection.
