An infected person in Changshu tested positive for Korean sweaters online
Jiangsu Changshu New Coronary Pneumonia Epidemic Prevention and Control Headquarters reported on April 2 the situation of one confirmed case, Yang, reported on March 28. After repeated flow reconciliation and testing, 4 online shopping Korean sweaters in the wardrobe of his residence were found to be positive. In other environments , close contact, sub-close contact and multiple nucleic acid test results of general contacts were all negative.

A clerk of a Korean imported clothing store in Dalian is infected
The New Coronary Pneumonia Epidemic Prevention and Control Headquarters in Dalian, Liaoning Province announced on April 2 that the gene sequence of a new positive infected person in Dalian on April 1 was an Omicron variant strain (BA.2 evolutionary branch), which is different from the current round of epidemics and past Domestic and foreign imported virus strains are of different origin.
The positive infected person is a clerk of a Korean imported clothing store, and the new coronavirus nucleic acid single gene was detected on the inner surface of the Korean imported clothing and packaging bags operated by him.
The notification pointed out that the possibility of infection due to contact with imported goods contaminated with the new coronavirus cannot be ruled out.
18 people infected with positive fabrics imported from a garment factory in Dalian

What is the probability of Omicron's "human transmission"?
Laboratory studies by researchers at Kyoto Prefectural University of Medicine in Japan have found that the Ormicron strain can survive longer on plastic surfaces or human skin than other early Covid-19 variants.
According to the results of the biological research preprint website bioRxiv, the researchers tested the average survival time of the new coronavirus strains on plastic surfaces at room temperature, which were 56 hours for the original strain, 114 hours for the Delta strain, and 193.5 hours for the Omicron strain. The Ormicron strain was shown to survive on plastic surfaces for up to 8 days.
In addition, the survival time on the surface of the human skin model is also the longest.
How should individuals protect themselves?
The Omicron strain is more transmissible, and it is very important to do a good job in the prevention of characters, and to consolidate the epidemic prevention in the contact links between characters.
