On June 4, Guangzhou City held a press conference on epidemic prevention and control.
At the meeting, Zhang Zhoubin, deputy director of the Guangzhou Center for Disease Control and Prevention, introduced that according to the epidemiological investigation of the reported cases, the epidemic in Guangzhou presents the characteristics of clusters in local areas and families. There is no evidence that it can be transmitted to people through objects. Happening.
Zhang Zhoubin further explained that the first reason is that most of the reported cases are close contacts of previous cases, especially close contacts at home, and some close contacts with very frequent social activities.
The second is that some of the cases found in the large-scale investigation also have time-space intersections with some previous cases in many important places, including places with poor air circulation such as morning tea shops.
These two points show that the current situation is still caused by human-to-human transmission of the epidemic, which shows that there is no material-to-human transmission.
Zhang Zhoubin said that the current focus of prevention and control is relatively clear, which lies in the management and investigation of close contacts, close contacts of close contacts, and key populations in key places.
