China News Service, Beijing, April 7 (Xu Jing) Pang Xinghuo, deputy director of the Beijing Center for Disease Control and Prevention, introduced at a press conference on Beijing's new crown pneumonia epidemic prevention and control work held on the 7th that on April 6th, two groups of overseas visitors came New coronavirus nucleic acid was detected positive in Beijing clothing goods.

  Pang Xinghuo said that since April 3, the city has reported a total of 25 cases of new coronary pneumonia virus infection, involving four independent transmission chains.

One of them is related to Xiaojingege clothing store, involving 22 cases of infection, including 9 cases of clerks, 7 cases of family members and people living with them, 2 cases of shoppers, and 4 cases of other related personnel. The disease occurred on April 1, and at least three generations of cases were caused within 6 days. The virus spreads quickly and is highly contagious; the newly infected people are all from management and control personnel, and the transmission chain is clear. Judging from the current situation, the transmission chain has been extended. The possibility of secondary cases was ruled out.

  Pang Xinghuo said that the current global epidemic is still at a high level, and the domestic epidemic is showing a trend of wide-ranging epidemics, large-scale epidemics and sporadic epidemics.

This city is in a critical period of epidemic prevention and control, and it is necessary to adhere to the general policy of "dynamic clearing", compress and compact the "quartet" responsibilities, and implement the "four mornings" requirements.

  Pang Xinghuo pointed out that this round of epidemic has once again warned us that the Omicron variant is highly contagious and spreads fast, and the general public should strictly implement their personal prevention and control responsibilities. On business trips, those entering and returning to Beijing should report to their communities (hotels, units, villages) in a timely manner, carry out a nucleic acid test within 24 hours and 72 hours after arriving in Beijing, and do not have meals, parties, or travel within 7 days after returning to Beijing. In crowded places, advocating units require employees to do an additional nucleic acid test within 48 hours before returning to work, and work from home until a negative test result is available.

People in centralized isolation and home isolation must strictly implement various epidemic prevention regulations, and report any abnormality in their bodies in a timely manner.

It is necessary to continue to adhere to normal prevention and control measures such as wearing masks, washing hands frequently, frequent ventilation, and less gathering. The elderly and children should avoid going to crowded places.

Vaccination is an effective measure to prevent severe, critical illness and death after infection with the new crown virus. Those who meet the new crown vaccination requirements, especially the elderly and children, should be vaccinated as soon as possible.
