The number of infected people in Sixian County, Anhui exceeds 1,000, and the number of infected people shows a downward trend

  According to official data, there were 335 new local infections in mainland China on the 4th (69 confirmed cases and 266 asymptomatic cases), exceeding 300 cases for 3 consecutive days.

Among them, the local confirmed cases came from 6 provinces: 52 cases in Anhui, 7 cases in Shaanxi, 3 cases in Beijing, Shanghai, Shandong, and 1 case in Guangdong; local asymptomatic infections were distributed in 8 provinces: 179 cases in Anhui, 66 cases in Jiangsu, and 7 cases in Fujian There are 5 cases in Shanghai, 4 cases in Shandong, 2 cases each in Guangdong and Shaanxi, and 1 case in Liaoning.

  Si County, Suzhou City, Anhui Province added 216 new cases of local infection on the 4th (52 confirmed cases and 164 asymptomatic cases), accounting for 64% of the total number of new local infections in mainland China that day, and the number of local infections increased for 3 consecutive days more than 200 cases.

From June 26 to July 4, Si County has reported more than 1,000 local infections in the past 9 days.

  Sixian reported on the 5th that of the 216 new local infections in the county on the 4th, 179 cases were found in the centralized isolation observation personnel, 23 cases were found in the home isolation observation personnel, and 14 cases were found in the nucleic acid screening in medium and high-risk areas. .

On July 5, Si County launched the eighth round of nucleic acid testing across the county.

The results of the previous rounds of regional nucleic acid screening showed that the number of newly infected people in the county has dropped significantly in the past two days, and the number of newly infected people in the society has gradually decreased.

Beijing adds 3 high-risk areas for nucleic acid screening in some areas of Shanghai

  After 4 consecutive days of zero new local cases, Beijing found 3 local confirmed cases on the 4th.

From 00:00 to 15:00 on the 5th, Beijing added 3 local confirmed cases and 1 asymptomatic infection. In the past two days, a total of 7 local infections have been reported, including 6 in Yanqing District and 1 in Tongzhou District.

On July 5, Yanqing District 2 and Tongzhou District 1 were classified as high-risk areas.

So far, Beijing has 3 high-risk areas.

  The Beijing Center for Disease Control and Prevention reported on the 5th that one of the above-mentioned infected persons returned to China on June 15. After completing a 14-day centralized quarantine outside Beijing, he returned to Beijing on July 1, lived and worked in a hotel in Yanqing District, and was diagnosed on the 4th. for confirmed cases.

The other 6 infected persons are their colleagues.

  Beijing officials said that this clustered epidemic caused by people returning to Beijing after the entry quarantine period expired, warning that the importation of the epidemic is still the biggest risk currently facing.

Airports, railway stations, and checkpoints entering Beijing must be strictly controlled and inspected remotely, and resolutely prevent bringing the epidemic into Beijing.

  On the 4th, Shanghai added 3 local confirmed cases and 5 asymptomatic infections, of which 1 confirmed case was found through social screening.

  The Shanghai Leading Group Office for Epidemic Prevention and Control announced on the 5th that the city reported multiple cases of local infections on the 3rd and 4th, and the activity trajectories were all related to the same place.

The site has been classified as a high-risk area. There are frequent flow of relevant risk personnel in the site, and the activity trajectory involves multiple areas, which has potential risks of social spread of the epidemic.

In order to detect and control the risk of the epidemic as soon as possible, Shanghai has decided to carry out "3-day 2-check" nucleic acid screening for all employees in relevant areas from July 5 to July 7, while routine screening on weekends is still carried out as planned.

Xi'an implements 7-day temporary control from the 6th, and Ningde, Fujian adds 7 more cases of infection

  On the 4th, Shaanxi Province added 7 local confirmed cases and 2 asymptomatic infections, all in Xi'an.

From July 2 to 4, Xi'an City has reported 18 local infections (10 confirmed cases and 8 asymptomatic cases).

  The Xi'an Center for Disease Control and Prevention reported on the 5th that the infected strains of the current round of epidemic in the city are all branches of the BA.5.2 variant of the Omicron variant.

The strain spreads faster and is more contagious than the previously circulating variant, and has caused a new round of epidemic peaks around the world.

Therefore, the current epidemic situation in Xi'an is severe and complex, and it cannot be ruled out that there will be new transmission chains in the future, causing a higher risk of secondary transmission in the community.

  According to reports, most of the infected people found in this epidemic in Xi'an were waste recycling personnel or related personnel, and the epidemic showed obvious clustering.

It is preliminarily judged that the virus came from abroad, but the source is not yet clear.

In order to further reduce the flow of people and reduce the risk of cross-infection, Xi'an City has decided to implement 7-day temporary control measures throughout the city from 0:00 on July 6.

  On the 4th, Fujian Province added 7 new cases of local asymptomatic infections, all in Ningde City.

In the past two days, Ningde has reported 17 local infections.

According to a recent report, the virus in Ningde's outbreak is the evolutionary branch of the Omicron variant BA.2.3, which was imported by offshore operators and overseas personnel.

Wuxi, Jiangsu Province resumes and reopens business in an orderly manner, Xuzhou epidemic virus genes are homologous to cases in neighboring provinces

  On the 4th, Jiangsu Province added 66 local asymptomatic infections, including 34 in Wuxi, 31 in Xuzhou, and 1 in Nanjing.

  Wuxi City announced on the 5th that the new local infections in the city on the 4th were found from centralized isolation points and key control areas.

  Xuzhou City introduced on the 5th that the new local asymptomatic infections in the city were also found from centralized isolation points and key control areas.
