Shenzhen finds 8 positive cases in centralized quarantine of observers and active nucleic acid testing

　　On February 16, 8 new cases were reported in Shenzhen.

Among them, 6 cases are close contacts of the "0213" epidemic cases that have been quarantined and observed, and 2 cases are found in active nucleic acid testing and screening of close contacts.

　　6 new cases of "0213" epidemic are close contacts of centralized isolation and observation

　　The 6 cases are all close contacts of the "0213" epidemic case 1 who have been quarantined and observed. They are in a closed-loop management state during their work in the past 14 days. The hotel is "two o'clock and one line".

　　At present, the Municipal Center for Disease Control and Prevention has completed the whole genome sequencing of the new coronavirus in cases 1-5 of the "0213" epidemic, and the results are all Omicron variant (BA.2 evolutionary branch).

After comparison, the new coronavirus sequences of cases 1-5 are highly homologous, suggesting the same transmission chain.

Genetic sequencing of cases 6 to 11 is ongoing.

　　The other 2 new cases involve Nanshan and Futian

　　On February 16, 2 cases were found through active nucleic acid testing and screening of close contacts.

　　After preliminary epidemiological investigation, the main activity trajectories of the above two cases in recent days are as follows:

　　The relevant departments of the city and district are fully tracing the activity trajectory and personnel contact of all cases in the past 14 days, and the traced close contacts and sub-close contacts have been controlled as required.

　　The workplace and residence of all cases have been controlled, and environmental nucleic acid sampling and terminal disinfection have been carried out in key places where they have been active.

In accordance with the principle of "exhaustive inspection", continue to strengthen the inspection and management of general contacts and key groups of people.

　　Citizens are requested to continue to fulfill their personal prevention and control responsibilities, take protective measures such as wearing masks, washing hands frequently, ventilating more, disinfecting frequently, and maintaining social distance, and actively cooperate with the implementation of various epidemic prevention and control measures.
