(Fighting New Coronary Pneumonia) Nanjing has completed nearly 40 million nucleic acid screenings and will suspend large-scale testing in the city
Chinanews.com, Nanjing, August 11 (Reporter Shen Ran) On the 11th, at the 22nd Nanjing press conference on the prevention and control of the new crown pneumonia epidemic, the relevant person in charge of the Jiangsu Provincial Disease Control Department notified that according to the current Nanjing City The results of six rounds of large-scale nucleic acid screening and the development of the local epidemic situation will suspend the city's large-scale nucleic acid testing in Nanjing.
In the case of strict management and control in high-risk areas, the risk of recurring social sporadic cases is relatively low.
According to Bao Changjun, director and chief physician of the Jiangsu Provincial Center for Disease Control and Prevention of Acute Infectious Diseases, introduced at the meeting that nearly 40 million nucleic acid tests were conducted in the first six rounds of nucleic acid tests in Nanjing, during which a total of 233 people were found to be positive.
It is worth noting that Bao Changjun mentioned, “These positive cases are mainly from people in high-risk areas and their close contacts. Among them, only 14 cases of social sporadic cases were screened in the first three rounds. The six rounds of positives detected in Nanjing all occurred in centralized or home isolation points, and no sporadic cases were detected in the community."
Bao Changjun analyzed that the cases reported since August have all appeared among the quarantine control personnel in Jiangning District.
Judging from the epidemiological characteristics of this round of epidemic cases, the median incubation period of most cases is within 5 days, and most of the cases do not exceed 8 days.
"In other urban areas other than Jiangning District, the last case of the infected person was found to be isolated on July 28. Starting from this day, we have now screened for more than 14 days. It shows that no infected areas are currently found. The possibility of infection is very small. Under the current strict management and control in the middle and high-risk areas of Nanjing, the risk of sporadic cases outside of Jiangning District is relatively low."
According to the analysis results of the disease control department, at present, except for Jiangning District, Nanjing, which still needs to continue to carry out nucleic acid screening in some areas, such as Lukou Street and Hushu Street, other districts will not temporarily stop if there are no new infections. Carry out large-scale screening of ordinary residents.
"This plan has also been approved by the National Steering Group. We will concentrate our personnel and efforts to focus on nucleic acid screening on centralized isolation and home isolation personnel, personnel in high-risk areas in Nanjing, and yellow code personnel and other key personnel, as well as closed , Containment and control management and other key areas.” Bao Changjun said, in addition, we must further do a good Sampling, laboratory testing personnel, etc.
Bao Changjun reminded the public that although no sporadic cases have been found in society for many days, they still need to be reminded that they must not relax their vigilance at all. All aspects of prevention and control measures must still be strictly implemented and implemented. Individuals need to participate in nucleic acid testing. At this time, medical surgical masks should be worn throughout the entire process, and the line should be kept at a distance of 1 meter. When waiting, do not gather, chat, do not touch public goods at will, do not eat, smoke, drink, etc. before sampling, put on spare masks as soon as possible after sampling, and leave in time , Wash your hands immediately after returning home.
