Experts from the National Health and Medical Commission: Rising epidemic may be contained before the Spring Festival




Beijing News (Reporter Xu Wen) The epidemic of new coronavirus pneumonia continues. On January 24, Zeng Guang, a member of the high-level expert group of the National Health and Medical Commission and the chief scientist of epidemiology of the Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention, said in a real-name certification Weibo that the initial effect of Wuhan ’s closure of the city will be seen within 5-10 days. Opportunity reverses quickly.

Zeng Guang believes that before the end of the Spring Festival, it is possible to see preliminary results, that is, the upward trend of the epidemic situation has been contained to a certain extent. Some western scholars use mathematical models to simulate and predict SARS epidemic trajectories. The epidemic situation will not end until May.

The following is the full text:

Hello everyone, I am Zeng Guang, Chief Scientist of Epidemiology of the Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention, and member of the High-level Expert Group of the Health and Medical Committee.

Today is New Year's Eve, and I wish you all a Happy New Year on Weibo!

Special greetings to the vast number of clinicians, epidemiologists, and experts in etiological research who work to fight the new coronavirus.

It is even more important to pay tribute to the heroic Wuhan people. You have worked hard! You now bear great responsibility. The situation in Wuhan has brought great inconvenience to all aspects of your life and work. You are contributing to the country. Wuhan is the land of the Revolution of 1911 and has a glorious revolutionary tradition. Now it has become the front line against the new coronavirus, saluting you and cheering for you.

The new coronavirus is menacing. In recent days, cases in provinces and cities outside Wuhan have been transmitted from Wuhan before they were closed. Now is the time for us to fight the virus. Based on the disease incubation period, I think the most recent week is the key first battle node. The initial effect of the closure of Wuhan will be seen within 5-10 days. If the export of cases across the country and around the world is curbed, it indicates that the high-level expert group's recommendation that 'Wuhan people do not go out and outsiders do not come in' has received a good response. Explain the accuracy of Wuhan City Government ’s decision to close the city, and the results of the joint efforts of Wuhan medical workers and all sectors of society.

For other cities across the country, we are not afraid to find patients exported from Wuhan. The key is to find isolation and treatment in time and isolate close contacts to prevent second-generation cases. Don't panic about the second and third generations that have already appeared. Early control can be completely extinguished. Don't let infectious diseases grow by the geometric amount!

I think we must be realistic and report the epidemic truthfully. Even if there are second- and third-generation virus cases in some cities, we should praise them as long as they report the truth. The first to report the second and third generations of epidemic diseases are successful!

I believe that due to the concerted efforts of everyone, the epidemic situation may have a rapid reversal. Before the Spring Festival is over, we may see preliminary results, that is, the upward trend of the epidemic situation has been contained to a certain extent. After the Spring Festival, they took the opportunity to enter the siege and fight the virus.

I think that some western scholars use mathematical models to simulate the SARS epidemic trajectory and predict that the epidemic will not end until May. It is questionable. It is man-made, our determination, our joint prevention and control mechanism, our prevention and control measures, our mobilization ability, and especially the Chinese people ’s undivided attention in the face of disasters cannot be simulated by mathematical models.

I hope everyone rejoices during the Spring Festival and try to reduce the number of parties as much as possible. Be sure to wear a face mask, wash your hands carefully, do not rub your eyes with your hands and pick your nose and mouth. To do this, no matter in Wuhan or in the field, everyone should be safe.

Thank you, and I wish you all a Happy Chinese New Year.

Yuan Guoyong: 83% infection rate, the last few days is the last chance to prevent the virus from spreading to Hong Kong




The epidemic of new coronavirus pneumonia in Wuhan has continued to spread. The research team of the Department of Microbiology of the University of Hong Kong published an article in the medical journal 'Acupuncture Needles'. Based on a group of 6 cases diagnosed in a 7-person family in Shenzhen, the attack rate of the virus was as high as 83%, and it is proven that people can pass from person to person.

Yuan Guoyong, Chair Professor of the Department of Microbiology of the University of Hong Kong, pointed out that the study showed that the new virus may be highly infectious and worried about the reappearance of SARS. As the new study estimated that the virus incubation period was about 3 to 6 days, he thought that the next few days might be the last chance to block The virus has been brought to Hong Kong or Macau by infected mainland patients.

He also believes that masks should be promoted as soon as possible outside the home, and that hands should be disinfected regularly, so as not to call too late, and hospitals also need to purchase additional masks, protective clothing, and inventory of needed drugs.

He pointed out that Our situation is NOT good. The development of the next 14 days is the key. 'Hong Kong, Macau or any international city can easily become another Wuhan or Hong Kong in 2003 (the outbreak of SARS).'

Novel coronavirus 2019-nCoV: early estimation of epidemiological parameters and epidemic predictions

In December 2019, a novel coronavirus (2019-nCoV) is thought to have emerged into the human population in Wuhan, China. The number of identified cases in Wuhan has increased rapidly since, and cases have been identified in other Chinese cities and other countries (as of 23 January 2020). We fitted a transmission model to reported case information up to 21 January to estimate key epidemiological measures, and to predict the possible course of the epidemic, as the potential impact of travel restrictions into and from Wuhan. We estimate the basic reproduction number of the infection (R_0) to be 3.8 (95% confidence interval, 3.6-4.0), indicating that 72-75% of transmissions must be prevented by control measures for infections to stop increasing. We estimate that only 5.1% (95%CI, 4.8-5.5) of infections in Wuhan are identified, and by 21 January a total of 11,341 people (prediction interval, 9,217-14,245) had been infected in Wuhan since the start of the year. Should the epidemic continue unabated in Wuhan, we predict the epidemic in Wuhan will be substantially larger by 4 February (191,529 infections; prediction interval, 132,751-273,649), infection will be established in other Chinese cities, and importations to other countries will be more frequent. Our model suggests that travel restrictions from and to Wuhan city are unlikely to be effective in halting transmission across China; with a 99% effective reduction in travel, the size of the epidemic outside of Wuhan may only be reduced by 24.9% on 4 February.
