Qingdao proposed to actively carry out nucleic acid testing, and more than 200,000 nucleic acid tests have been negative

On October 11, Qingdao added 3 new cases of asymptomatic infections of new coronavirus pneumonia, which were linked to Qingdao Chest Hospital.

Beijing News Express (Reporter Li Yukun) Today (October 11), Qingdao added 3 new cases of asymptomatic infection of new coronavirus pneumonia. According to Qingdao Daily, this afternoon, the Qingdao Municipal Party Committee’s Leading Group for Coordinating Epidemic Prevention and Control and Economic Operation (Command) held its 11th regular work meeting, proposing to keep a close eye on key locations, places, and groups of people, strengthen scientific research and judgment, and actively carry out nucleic acid Detection.

Actively carry out nucleic acid testing and release epidemic information in a timely and accurate manner

According to reports, officials from relevant departments of Shandong Province also participated in this meeting in Qingdao. This morning and morning, Qingdao Municipal Party Committee Secretary Wang Qingxian presided over two emergency meetings of the headquarters to arrange and deploy related work.

The meeting pointed out that it is necessary to fully understand the complexity and severity of the epidemic, keep tightening the string of epidemic prevention and control, resolutely overcome paralyzing thoughts, war exhaustion, fluke mentality, and a relaxed mentality, and continue to pay close attention to the external "Prevention of import and internal prevention of rebound" must adhere to scientific prevention and control, precise policy implementation, focus on key locations, key places, and key populations, strengthen scientific research and judgment, actively carry out nucleic acid testing, and effectively improve the level of normalized epidemic prevention and control.

The meeting also called for strengthening public opinion guidance, timely and accurate release of epidemic information and prevention and control measures, combining the handling of the epidemic with the normalization of epidemic prevention and control in autumn and winter, and further strengthening the responsibilities of "territories, departments, units, and individuals" to improve normalcy We will improve prevention and control mechanisms, strengthen normalized prevention and control measures, and continuously improve the scientific and precise nature of epidemic prevention and control.

Five cases of asymptomatic infection were found in more than half a month

On October 11, Qingdao City added 3 new cases of asymptomatic infections with new coronavirus pneumonia, 2 of which were discovered by the hospital during nucleic acid testing of ordinary patients, and 1 case was performing instant nucleic acid on close contacts detected by the hospital. Found during testing. After epidemiological investigations, the expert team preliminarily judged that the above 3 cases of asymptomatic infections are related to Qingdao Chest Hospital. Some independent areas of the hospital are responsible for the admission and treatment of imported new coronavirus infections. The specific source of infection is being further investigated in.

According to the report, one of them was a taxi driver with the taxi license number Lu UT4923. He stated that he always wore a mask while driving and did not talk to passengers.

Before "October", asymptomatic infections were also found in Qingdao. On September 24, the city of Qingdao found 2 cases of asymptomatic infections of the new coronavirus pneumonia during regular routine inspections of the workers involved in loading and unloading imported cold chain products from Qingdao Port Dagang Company.

The Qingdao Health and Health Commission’s website issued a report on the testing situation on October 9. After the outbreak, Qingdao City immediately adopted centralized isolation medical observation measures for its 234 close contacts and 260 close contacts. The contacts have undergone 5 rounds of nucleic acid testing and 2 rounds of serum antibody testing, and close contacts of close contacts have undergone 3 rounds of nucleic acid testing and 1 round of serum antibody testing. The results are all negative, and the centralized isolation medical observation has been lifted. At the same time, the 2,444 general contacts, 1,50031 key community groups, and 63,827 cold chain product-related practitioners identified in the row were all included in the health management, and the nucleic acid test results were all negative.

Now 270k have been tested...

2020-10-12 15:12:45Beijing News reporter: Xu Wen Editor: Fan Yijing

Qingdao has tested more than 270,000 nucleic acids, and the National Health Commission dispatched a working group

At present, Guizhou Province, Harbin in Heilongjiang, Zhengzhou in Henan, Huaibei City in Anhui and other places have issued notices requiring citizens who have recently lived in Qingdao to actively report to the community and receive nucleic acid testing.

Beijing News Express (Reporter Xu Wen) The reporter learned from the National Health Commission that the National Health Commission has sent a working group to Qingdao today (October 12) to guide the local epidemic prevention and control.

According to statistics, many provinces require citizens who have lived in Qingdao for the past 14 days to actively report and receive nucleic acid testing, and remind the public not to go to Qingdao in the near future unless necessary.

More than 270,000 nucleic acid tests have been carried out for all employees in Qingdao

On October 11, Qingdao City reported three new cases of asymptomatic new coronary pneumonia infections. That night, Qingdao carried out nucleic acid tests throughout the city overnight.

According to the latest report from the Qingdao Municipal Health Commission on October 12, the city’s nucleic acid testing is currently accelerating, and 277,968 samples have been sampled for nucleic acid testing.

The reporter noted that in accordance with the full-staff testing plan, Qingdao will cover the five districts of Shinan, Shibei, Licang, Laoshan, and Chengyang within three days, and will cover the entire city within five days. Close contacts of confirmed cases and asymptomatic infections, as well as relevant personnel of Qingdao Chest Hospital, will be monitored as high-risk groups.

Nine close contacts have been found to be positive for nucleic acid in this full-staff test. The above notification shows that as of 12 o'clock on October 12, Qingdao has detected 132 close contacts, all of whom have implemented centralized isolation and observation, and all completed nucleic acid tests. Among them, 9 people have positive nucleic acid test results, and the rest are negative; close contacts 171 close contacts of, all of them were under centralized isolation and observation, and the nucleic acid test results were negative; 840 were general contacts, and the nucleic acid test results were all negative; 162,601 medical staff, hospitalized patients and accompanying staff, and 154,815 nucleic acid tests were completed , The results were all negative; 114,221 people were tested in the community, 75,296 people had completed nucleic acid testing, and the results were all negative.

Many places require a history of living in Qingdao in the past 14 days to be tested for nucleic acid

According to incomplete statistics from reporters from the Beijing News, Guizhou Province, Harbin in Heilongjiang, Zhengzhou in Henan, and Huaibei City in Anhui have issued notices requiring citizens who have recently lived in Qingdao to actively report to the community and undergo nucleic acid testing.

After three cases of asymptomatic infections were found in Qingdao yesterday, emergency deployment was carried out in Shandong Province. For example, Jinan, Rizhao, Binzhou and other places require comprehensive investigations and nucleic acid tests on returnees from Qingdao.

Many places outside Shandong Province also responded. For example, the Guizhou Provincial Health and Health Commission issued a reminder on October 12, requiring people who have lived in Qingdao since September 29 and who have an intersection with confirmed cases or asymptomatic infections to immediately report to their communities and follow As required by the local social prevention and control department, accept community health management and carry out nucleic acid testing.

In addition, Ganzhou in Jiangxi, Dalian in Liaoning, Dandong, and Baicheng in Jilin have issued reminders to remind citizens not to go to Qingdao unless necessary in the near future.

Covid-19: China's Qingdao to test nine million in five days

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-asia-54504785

The decision comes after Qingdao saw 12 new confirmed cases linked to a local hospital.

Covid-19: Qingdao to test nine million for coronavirus in five days

The mass testing comes after a dozen cases were found linked back to a hospital treating coronavirus patients arriving from overseas.

In May, China tested the entire city of Wuhan - home to 11 million people and the epicentre of the global pandemic.

The country has largely brought the virus under control.

Where is the source of the Qingdao epidemic? Can the mask be taken off? Experts bring the latest interpretation

According to the CCTV news client, as of 23:00 on October 11, a total of 6 confirmed cases and 6 asymptomatic infections were found in Qingdao, all of which are highly related to Qingdao Chest Hospital.

After the epidemic was discovered, Qingdao City formulated and launched a nucleic acid testing program for all employees. Within 3 days, the 5 districts of Shinan, Shibei, Licang, Laoshan, and Chengyang were fully covered, and the whole city was covered within 5 days.

On the afternoon of the 12th, the National Health Commission sent a working group to Qingdao to carry out epidemic prevention and control work.

Why did this epidemic occur in Qingdao? Where is the source? What are the areas worthy of our vigilance? "News 1+1" on October 12 connected with Professor Wu Anhua from the Infection Control Center of Xiangya Hospital of Central South University and Professor Jiang Qingwu from the School of Public Health of Fudan University. They shared their concerns: Is the Qingdao epidemic related to the hospital?

Be alert to possible "imported secondary cases"

Wu Anhua, Professor of Infection Control Center, Xiangya Hospital of Central South University: In the seventh edition of the prevention and control plan, two new definitions have been added.

"Overseas imported cases" include asymptomatic infections abroad. This part of the cases is the main pressure for us to prevent imported cases.

"Imported secondary cases" also include imported secondary asymptomatic infections. These cases are not actually infected in our country, but they are imported cases or asymptomatic infections imported from abroad. , This cause of infection.

Regarding the Qingdao epidemic, because I was not at the scene and did not participate in the investigation, I still don’t know more about it, but I think these cases may be secondary to imported cases, because the local chest hospital has an area for the treatment of imported cases and overseas imported cases. Asymptomatic infection.

To trace the source of the epidemic

In the Qingdao epidemic, all confirmed cases and asymptomatic infections discovered so far are highly related to the Municipal Chest Hospital. In the closed-loop management of patients, where are the problems that may lead to infection of people outside the closed-loop?

Wu Anhua, a professor at the Center for Infection Control, Xiangya Hospital, Central South University: Basically, the cases are discovered in the last two days. Are they exposed simultaneously? Or is someone exposed first, and then this person is exposed to other medical staff and related personnel, including patients, escorts, etc.? We need to find the cause. I don’t think infections will happen for no reason. If it happens, there will always be a reason, in terms of the placement of our patients, the management of the patients, the cooperation of the patients, the cooperation of the escorts, and the protection of medical staff. In addition, the weather is getting colder now. We have to consider whether it has anything to do with our environment.

If it turns out that there is no connection with the chest hospital, we have to look for external reasons. In addition, even though the chest hospital is highly connected, we still cannot relax the periphery, because if the medical staff is not a closed management, he has contact with the periphery, if he brings it in, we must also be vigilant. So today, we are doing a large-scale nucleic acid screening to find out the cause. I think this is also a very important method.

This epidemic has certain community attributes

Jiang Qingwu, a professor at the School of Public Health of Fudan University: This case occurred in a hospital, which is highly related to the hospital, and the risk is relatively smaller than found in society. However, there are still some questions to be answered by the investigation of Qingdao.

For example, where did the infection occur? For the cases we found in the hospital, did the infection also occur in the hospital? When was it infected? Who passed it to him? Twelve individuals have a positive nucleic acid, are they co-infected or have different infections? These need (survey) to answer.

If it is judged to be nosocomial infection, the second question is one caregiver and the other is that tuberculosis patients are discharged from the hospital after treatment. They leave the hospital during the National Day and are active in the community, and contact the community and life without noticing. Some people need to be vigilant.

The third question is that among those who have tested positive for nucleic acid, there is a taxi driver. He was working until the onset of symptoms and he had a wide range of contacts. This time, we must be highly vigilant about this case, because it is highly related to the hospital. We suspect hospital infection, but at the same time it has certain community attributes.

The string of epidemic prevention and control cannot be loosened, masks cannot be removed

Jiang Qingwu, Professor of School of Public Health, Fudan University: It is about to enter the season of respiratory disease transmission (high incidence). The current (global) epidemic has not been well controlled, and there may be sporadic cases at any time. It is still necessary to be vigilant and adhere to effective preventive measures. Especially indoors, such as in some public places and vehicles, where a certain number of people move, we must emphasize wearing masks, protecting ourselves, emphasizing personal hygiene, and maintaining a certain social distance.

The results of over 300,000 nucleic acid samples in Qingdao found no new positives, and a community was upgraded to medium risk

This confirmed case was not found in the community, but in the hospital. The risk of community transmission is low.

Beijing News Express (Reporter Li Yukun) At about 19:30 on October 12, Qingdao City held an epidemic prevention and control conference.

According to Chen Wansheng, deputy director of the General Office of the Qingdao Municipal Government, after the outbreak, Qingdao launched a large-scale flow reconciliation and classification test. As of 17:30 on the 12th, Qingdao has completed nucleic acid sampling for more than one million people, and more than 300,000 test samples have been tested.

According to the results, in addition to the previously announced 9 cases of nucleic acid testing positive, no new positive infections have been found.

A reporter asked at the press conference whether after the outbreak, will it affect the risk level of Qingdao?

Zhang Huaqiang, deputy director of the Qingdao Center for Disease Control and Prevention, said that this confirmed case was not found in the community, but in the hospital. The risk of community transmission is low, and no community transmission has been found so far. Therefore, according to regulations, only the Loushanhou community where Qingdao Chest Hospital is located is designated as a medium-risk area, and the risk levels of other areas remain unchanged.

The host explained the reason for the cancellation of the press conference last night. "Because at the press conference, 9 more cases were found to be positive, but it takes four to five hours to complete all the procedures. Therefore, the press conference was cancelled and the Qingdao Municipal Health Commission website issued detailed information in the early morning."

According to the report, on October 11, 2020, Qingdao City immediately organized a large-scale investigation and classification test after 3 cases of asymptomatic infection of new coronary pneumonia were found. Among them, 9 new people with positive nucleic acid test results, including 8 cities In the chest hospital, patients and their accompanying staff, and a family member of the patient, as judged by the expert group, 4 cases were confirmed cases and 5 cases were asymptomatic infections.

Up to now, 6 confirmed cases have been found in Qingdao City, of which 2 were the asymptomatic infections previously announced by Jiang XX (female) and Han XX, and 6 cases of asymptomatic infection.

Ok...what are the chances that China tested 4.23 million people via PCR in 3 days? This reminds me of the H5N1 poultry outbreaks of 2006/07. China would make such claims as vaccinating 10 million chickens in 4 days. Really not credible.

Wu Zunyou: The scale of the Qingdao epidemic should not be too large

According to CCTV news as of 15:30 on the 13th,Qingdao has sampled more than 4.23 million nucleic acid tests, and there are no new confirmed cases and asymptomatic infections. The current 6 confirmed cases and 6 asymptomatic infections are highly related to the Municipal Chest Hospital.

What is the current investigation situation? How do you look at the epidemic in Qingdao? What kind of wake-ups have been given to our prevention and control links? "News 1+1" linked with Wu Zunyou, chief epidemiology expert of the China Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, and shared attention : What are the questions and reminders about the Qingdao epidemic?

There are no new confirmed cases in the Qingdao epidemic, does it mean that safety has increased significantly?

Wu Zunyou, chief epidemiology expert of the Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention: Yes, large-scale nucleic acid testing provides a very important technical means for understanding the scale of the epidemic. Qingdao carried out nucleic acid testing, and gradually radiated from close contacts to high-risk communities. The current results suggest that the scale of this epidemic should not be too large.

The confirmed cases in Qingdao are mainly concentrated in hospitals, and the scale of the epidemic will not be too large

Wu Zunyou, chief epidemiologist of the Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention: When the Qingdao case occurred, we were still quite worried. Especially if the patient takes the initiative to visit the community clinic, it will indicate that there must be a certain number of cases in the future, depending on the early or late of the patient's visit. Judging from more information about the cases in Qingdao, it is mainly concentrated in hospitals. According to the analysis of this information, the epidemic in Qingdao should not be like a new place in Beijing or on a scale like Xinjiang.

Nearly 2 million nucleic acid testers in Qingdao are negative. Will there be any possibility of changing from negative to positive in the future?

Wu Zunyou, chief expert of epidemiology at the Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention: This concern is understandable, but from another perspective, the vast majority of people actually have no chance of contacting the infected. These infected people are mainly in hospitals, and some of them have some contact with the community. As close contacts, these people are already under quarantine management. For those who do not have isolation management, their risk should be very low.

The taxi drivers in Qingdao all tested negative for close contact. How do you treat this case?

Wu Zunyou, chief expert of epidemiology at the China Centers for Disease Control and Prevention: I am particularly concerned about the taxi driver's case, and I have also learned something about this case with the doctors who treated the patients in Qingdao. The taxi driver was still asymptomatic when he was first found to have a positive nucleic acid. Today, he was referred as a confirmed case, which means that the taxi driver has changed from asymptomatic infection to confirmed case. This change shows that the taxi driver is in the early stage of infection. Judging from the epidemic law of detoxification of the new crown, the patient's detoxification one or two days before the onset of symptoms and 5 days after the onset of symptoms is contagious. Before his discovery on the 11th, his role as a source of infection was very limited. After the discovery on the 11th, he has been quarantined. It should be said that the scope of his further spread is very limited, not as terrible as originally imagined.

How to treat the six confirmed cases in Qingdao and three severe cases?

Wu Zunyou, chief expert of epidemiology at the Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention: From two perspectives: ①The number of cases is too small, 6 cases and 3 severe cases. Although this ratio is calculated as 50%, this ratio is too small because the sample size is too small. explain the problem. ②The epidemic occurred in a hospital, and most of these patients have lung diseases.

Our analysis of the epidemic situation also found that among the four types of mild, normal, severe, and critical, if patients have basic diseases, especially those with basic diseases such as lung, liver, kidney, and cardiovascular disease, they are severely ill. The ratio will be high. This also suggests that this situation in the hospital does not mean that the severity or pathogenicity of the virus in this epidemic has increased.

Wu Zunyou, chief epidemiology expert of the Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention: For the management of imported cases abroad, there are designated hospitals or designated hospitals in various places. As for the designated hospitals, some are dedicated to receiving COVID-19, and some are receiving imported cases of COVID-19 while also providing services to other patients in the society. If it is an independent dedicated service for new crown cases, it is a complete closed loop, and it should be said that the risk is relatively small.

If it also provides services to other patients in society, is the division of wards in the hospital strictly isolated? Is there any overlap in some large-scale equipment? It is best to be isolated and independent. Large-scale equipment should not be cross-used, and there should be regular disinfection measures for these rooms and the instrument itself to prevent and reduce cross-contamination.

Do 4 million people travel to Qingdao during Golden Week need nucleic acid testing?

Wu Zunyou, chief epidemiologist of the Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention: No need. Judging from the current testing situation, the epidemic is mainly limited to the local area of the chest hospital. For the vast majority of comrades who travel to Qingdao during the National Day, he has no chance to come into contact with these patients. But one thing to remind is that if you have taken a taxi in the area where the hospital is located, and have a taxi invoice, it is important to verify that it is the taxi service provided by the confirmed patient. For other travelers, there is no need to worry too much. If you are really worried, you can take the initiative to do a nucleic acid test at a nearby medical institution.

Can you relax control over overseas input? Not in China in the near future!

Wu Zunyou, chief expert of epidemiology at the Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention: I have also noticed that a recently widely spread in new media called the world’s three major epidemiologists launched a (initiative) supported by many experts, saying that countries around the world should not adopt The blockade measures have been taken and must be released. It is understandable for other countries to propose such a measure, and the global epidemic situation is very unoptimistic. After entering October, the number of single-day reports has set a new record, breaking through 350,000. There has never been a single day of over 350,000 before September. It is understandable that these countries have proposed to relax control. But for our country, there is no way to accept the strategy of lifting the blockade, at least for this period, it is unacceptable under such an epidemic situation. If we look at the global number of epidemics and deaths according to the average number, if we do not take the current measures, the number of infections in China will reach 7 million and the number of deaths will reach 200,000. Therefore, this strategy is impossible for China to adopt, at least not in the recent period.
