Zeng Guang: A partial rebound of the epidemic in China is unlikely to be a pandemic in the future
Zeng Guang, the former chief scientist of epidemiology of the Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention, said in an interview with the media on the 29th that the number of newly diagnosed cases in mainland China exceeded 100 in a single day, "it definitely means that the epidemic has rebounded, but it is only a partial rebound." He believes that a rebound in this range is normal, and there have been multiple rebounds in different regions before, but the scale of this rebound is slightly larger.
He said that the 101 new cases from the 28th did see the trend of a rebound of the epidemic, but in some other countries, this data is considered a small number, and China’s epidemic prevention and control measures are becoming more and more mature. “I think the epidemic will be pandemic in the future. It is unlikely".
On the 28th, there were 89 new confirmed cases in Xinjiang, setting a new high for this epidemic. Zeng Guang said that this shows that Xinjiang's epidemic prevention and control tasks are very heavy, but it is difficult to judge whether it has reached the peak, because Xinjiang is a frontier region, and its natural and social environment are different from those of other provinces, and cannot be blindly compared. However, he believes that Xinjiang's current prevention and control measures are correct. As long as the prevention and control efforts are further strengthened, the rapid decline in the number of confirmed cases can be expected. (Finish)
