  Reporters Xu Haitao, Cao Yiming and Liang Shun from Xinhua News Agency's "Xinhua Viewpoint"

  According to a report from the Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region Health Committee, from 0:00 to 24:00 on February 11, Guangxi added 30 new confirmed cases of local new coronary pneumonia.

There are 250 local confirmed cases, including 249 in Baise.

  Baise, located in western Guangxi, borders Vietnam, and has been on the front line of "foreign defense import" for a long time.

Since the end of the Spring Festival holiday, this prefecture-level city with a resident population of more than 3.5 million has faced severe challenges. Since the first confirmed case appeared, the number of confirmed cases has exceeded 200, and the task of epidemic prevention and control is arduous.

Focus 1: How about the development of the epidemic and the traceability of the virus?

  It has been more than a week since the first nucleic acid positive person was found, and the current round of the epidemic in Baise is characterized by rapid spread.

  On the afternoon of February 4, in Debao County, Baise City, a person who tested positive for the new coronavirus nucleic acid was found in the test of returnees.

Subsequently, the returnee was reviewed as a confirmed case.

After investigation, he returned home by car on January 26 after receiving a negative nucleic acid test in another province on January 25, and arrived in Longyi Village, Fuji Village, Du'an Township, Debao County on January 27. The trajectory of his activities involved many places and contacts. wide range.

  After the first confirmed case appeared, the number of cases increased rapidly. From February 5 to 8, the number of new confirmed cases per day was 6, 37, 64, and 72, respectively.

In Debao County, where the epidemic is the worst, as of 12:00 on the 11th, a total of 198 confirmed cases have been reported locally, involving multiple townships.

In addition to Debao County, the recent new cases are mainly concentrated in Jingxi City, which is located on the Sino-Vietnamese border. As of 12:00 on the 11th, there were 22 confirmed cases locally, which has become another focus of Baise's current round of epidemic prevention and control.

  He Qinghua, a first-level inspector of the National Health Commission's Bureau of Disease Control and Prevention, said that more than 80% of the infected people in this epidemic lived in the same natural village, and the spatial clustering was obvious. Due to the long hidden transmission time in the community, the many trajectories of personnel, and the Spring Festival period The mobility of personnel is large, and the risk of further spread is relatively high.

The comprehensive group of the joint prevention and control mechanism of the State Council has dispatched a working group to Guangxi as soon as possible.

Huang Zhaoyong, deputy director of the Center for Disease Control and Prevention of Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region, introduced that the cases caused by participating in a dinner party accounted for a large proportion of the local generation of cases, and then through family , community transmission further spread the epidemic to many places.
