After more than a month has passed since the reappearance of local cases, can I still play at Qingming May Day with peace of mind?

Listen to what Wu Zunyou said

  According to a report from the Shaanxi Provincial Health Commission on March 18, one new confirmed case of new coronary pneumonia was reported in Xi'an.

The confirmed case was an examiner in the closed isolation ward of the Eighth Hospital of Xi'an.

  The hospital is a designated hospital for patients with new coronary pneumonia in Xi'an. The examiner is mainly responsible for nucleic acid collection and laboratory testing of patients in the isolation ward.

After preliminary research and judgment,

the case was accidentally exposed to accidental infection in a closed isolation ward.

  Liu, a confirmed case of new coronary pneumonia, had a negative nucleic acid test on March 3 and entered a closed isolation ward on March 4. He has been working and living in a closed isolation state without contact with the outside world.

  On the morning of March 17, Liu began to have headaches, his body temperature was 37.9 degrees Celsius, and his chest CT was abnormal.

After consultation with experts from provinces and cities, a confirmed case of new coronary pneumonia was diagnosed.

Xi'an has performed nucleic acid tests on 3090 people and all are negative

  After a confirmed case of new coronary pneumonia appeared in the Eighth Hospital of Xi’an, Xi’an immediately performed nucleic acid tests on hospital staff and their families, patients and their accompanying staff.

As of 20 o'clock yesterday (18th), 3090 people have been tested and all the results are negative.

At present, the Eighth Hospital of Xi'an City has issued a notice of closure of external consultations. The Eighth Hospital and its family hospitals have implemented closed management and control, and all kinds of personnel in the hospital have been prohibited from entering and leaving.

Provincial and municipal CDC expert groups coordinated to carry out epidemiological investigation and traceability work, and provincial and municipal CDC laboratories conducted genetic sequencing to determine the source of the virus strain.

The case is an accidental infection caused by accidental exposure by a designated hospital examiner

  According to the report, the Eighth Hospital of Xi’an is a designated hospital for patients with new coronary pneumonia in Xi’an. This case is an examiner. The

preliminary determination was that the accidental infection caused by accidental exposure was in a closed isolation ward.

  If medical staff confirms the diagnosis, will it cause the risk of the spread of the epidemic?

What are the warnings for us?

Wu Zunyou, chief epidemiologist of the Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention: The

emergence of a local confirmed case of new coronary pneumonia in Xi'an once again reminds us that hospital staff serving patients with new coronary disease should take precautions.

If protection is not in place, the risk of infection is still high.

  Therefore, the staff must do a good job of protection.

This case will also further promote and strengthen the protection (work) of staff in medical isolation points, medical inspections and disease control, and community services.

If the staff has not received the new crown vaccine, they should complete the full vaccination two weeks before starting their duties.

What are the warnings brought by the reappearance of a local diagnosis after a lapse of more than a month?

  The local confirmed case reported in Xi’an, Shaanxi is the first domestic case reported in China in more than a month. The last local case reported was during the Spring Festival.

What warnings does this case of diagnosis bring to us?

Wu Zunyou, chief epidemiologist of the Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention:

Although the peak of the global new crown pandemic has passed, the current global epidemic still maintains a high level of 300,000 to 500,000 cases reported every day.

The overseas epidemic still puts great pressure on China's foreign import prevention.

The implementation of measures to normalize the epidemic cannot be slackened.

Can I travel with peace of mind during the Qingming May Day holiday?

  Tomb-sweeping Festival and May Day holidays are coming soon, can you all go out with peace of mind?

What impact does the global epidemic situation have on my country?

Wu Zunyou, chief expert of epidemiology at the Chinese Center for Disease Control and

Prevention

: The

May Day holiday of Qingming Festival is approaching, and it is recommended that everyone travel under the premise of taking good protection.

This not only prevents possible new crown pneumonia epidemics, but also ensures that everyone can fully enjoy the beauty of spring.

In recent times, there have been no local cases of community-level transmission in my country, which shows that the situation of the new crown pneumonia epidemic in China is good and the social level is safe, which also opened the "green light" for the movement of people.

So, are there any asymptomatic infections of new coronary pneumonia at the social level?

  Judging from the implementation of my country's current epidemic prevention and control measures, the possibility of asymptomatic infection of new coronary pneumonia at the social level is almost negligible.

As long as there are no people infected with the new crown at the social level, the movement of people is safe.
