China to share new coronavirus gene sequence information with World Health Organization
The National Health Committee of China released news on the evening of the 11th that the unexplained viral pneumonia epidemic in Wuhan has attracted wide attention from all walks of life. In order to maintain global health security, China will share the undetected viral pneumonia cases detected in Wuhan with the World Health Organization. Novel Coronavirus Gene Sequence Information.
Recently, unexplained viral pneumonia in Wuhan, which has attracted widespread attention, has been initially determined to be caused by a new type of coronavirus. A preliminary assessment of the results of pathogen detection by the expert group revealed recently that as of 21:00 on January 7, 2020, a new coronavirus was detected in the laboratory, the whole genome sequence of the virus was obtained, and positive results of the new coronavirus were detected by nucleic acid detection methods. In 15 cases, the virus was isolated from a sample of a positive patient and showed typical coronavirus appearance under an electron microscope.
Wang Guangfa, an expert of the National Medical Experts Group and the chief physician of the Department of Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine of the First Hospital of Peking University, told the media recently that the identification of the pathogen is a milestone in the prevention and treatment of the disease. The pathogen was initially identified and can not only be used for clinical screening. It is important to design a PCR test kit, which is very important for the follow-up treatment plan and epidemic prevention and control.
Wang Guangfa pointed out that at present, the patient's condition and overall epidemic situation are under control. But the expert group's understanding of the virus is still in the exploration stage, and whether there will be new changes in the future still needs further observation and research.
In response to the cause of the disease that the public is more concerned about, Wang Guangfa said that in general, it may take a long time for scientific research to trace the source of a disease. The public should uphold the scientific attitude and have a reasonable expectation for this.
The Wuhan Municipal Health and Health Commission reported on the 11th that 41 cases of pneumonia with a new coronavirus infection were initially diagnosed, of which 2 were discharged, 7 were severe, and 1 died. The remaining patients were in stable condition since January 3, 2020 No new cases were found. (Reporter Li Yanan)
