China News Service, Shijiazhuang, January 16 (Li Xiaowei) On the afternoon of the 16th, Hebei Province held the sixth press conference on the prevention and control of the new crown pneumonia epidemic.

According to Xu Jianpei, deputy governor of the Hebei Provincial People's Government, the new round of nucleic acid testing in key areas of the province has been completed.

  Xu Jianpei said that the results of this round of nucleic acid testing are worth paying attention to:

  First, in terms of the number and location of the positive people, 247 cases were detected in Shijiazhuang this round, which was a decrease compared with the 354 cases detected in the first round.

There are 8 counties and districts where positive cases were detected, which is also less than the 13 in the first round, indicating that the strict prevention and control measures adopted in this period are playing an active role in curbing the spread of the epidemic.

  Second, in terms of the regional distribution of positive people, they are still concentrated in Shijiazhuang and Xingtai.

There were 217 new positive cases detected in Gaocheng District, Shijiazhuang City, accounting for 87.85% of the total number of new detections in the city, while a total of 176 cases were detected in Zengcun Town, Gaocheng District, accounting for 81.1% of the total number of new detections in Gaocheng District.

It can be seen that Gaocheng District, especially Zengcun Town, is still the key area of ​​the epidemic in Shijiazhuang City; all newly detected positive persons in Xingtai City are concentrated in Nangong City, indicating that Nangong City is still the key area of ​​the epidemic in Xingtai City.

These places are also the top priority of the province's current epidemic management.

  Third, from the location of the positive people when they were detected, all the new positive people detected in this round of Xingtai City were detected in the centralized isolation point, that is, from the close contacts and the second close contacts.

It shows that up to now, the epidemic situation in Xingtai City has been controlled within a certain range.

Among the newly detected positive persons in Shijiazhuang this round, 180 people were detected inside the isolation point, and 67 people were detected outside the isolation point.

The detections outside the isolation point accounted for 27.1% of the total detections.

It shows that screening, screening and control measures are also playing an active role.
