Zhong Nanshan: Human-to-human transmission of new coronavirus
2020-01-21 03:00:46 Source: Beijing News

In the afternoon of January 20, in response to the prevention and control of the "pneumonia epidemic of new-type coronavirus infection", Academician Zhong Nanshan, leader of the high-level expert group of the National Health Commission, and members of the high-level expert group of the National Health Commission Gao Fu, Li Lanjuan, Yuan Guoyong, Zeng Guang, etc. answered reporters' questions on issues of public concern.

凌 In the early hours of this morning, according to the Wuhan Municipal Health and Health Commission, at present, a total of 15 medical staff in Wuhan have been diagnosed with pneumonia cases of the new coronavirus infection, and another suspected case. Of the 16 patients, 1 was critically ill, and the rest were in stable condition and had been treated in isolation.

阶段 Which stage did the epidemic develop?

Zhong Nanshan: Showing the characteristics of human-to-human transmission, 15 doctors infected

In response to the pneumonia epidemic of the new coronavirus infection, Zhong Nanshan, the leader of the high-level expert group of the National Health Commission, the academician of the Chinese Academy of Engineering, and the national clinical research expert on respiratory diseases, said that the current epidemic has three characteristics.

First, more than 95% of the patients are related to Wuhan. They have been to or from Wuhan. Second, there have been confirmed cases of human infection, one in Guangdong and one in Wuhan. Third, they have confirmed medical staff. Infection, which currently surrounds patient care for the new coronavirus, affects 15 medical staff.

曾 Zeng Guang, chief scientist of epidemiology at the Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention, pointed out that the pneumonia epidemic of the new coronavirus infection has entered Wuhan into an early stage of community transmission. More than 100 cases are relatively small compared to the population of more than 10 million in Wuhan, but a high degree of vigilance is needed, and measures can now be completely reversed.

高 Gao Fu, an academician of the Chinese Academy of Sciences and director of the China Centers for Disease Control and Prevention pointed out that the new type of coronavirus is also changing, adapting to the environment and human beings, so this "war" is a "war" of prevention and control and virus mutation.

How to prevent and control the epidemic?

Zhong Nanshan: The key to prevention is to prevent the emergence of super communicators

Zhong Zhongshan said that reducing output in Wuhan is a very important aspect. Wuhan will have very strict screening and testing measures, especially temperature detection. It is not recommended to leave Wuhan if the temperature is high. The most effective method for prevention and control is early detection and early treatment. Isolation and treatment of confirmed cases is very important. There are currently no specific drugs for new coronaviruses, but some animal experiments are currently under observation and scientific research must keep up. It is now the Spring Festival. It is estimated that the number of patients will increase. We must prevent transmission and prevent the occurrence of super communicators.

Academician Wu Zhongnanshan pointed out that early detection, early diagnosis, treatment and isolation are the most effective and primitive prevention and control methods. Effectively isolating patients who have been diagnosed, and spending this time to reduce spread, is the most important from a public health perspective.

兰 Li Lanjuan, an academician of the Chinese Academy of Engineering and an infectious disease scientist, pointed out that fever and cough symptoms should be tested at a fever clinic as soon as possible. The Wuhan area itself has a source of infection. Patients here should pay more attention to the fever diagnosis and test whether they are infected with the new coronavirus. For patients in other regions, we have epidemiological tests. If you have not contacted people from Wuhan or have not been to Wuhan, generally, the possibility of infection is relatively small. But as long as you have a fever and a viral infection, you still have to go to a fever clinic for testing.

Bai Yansong asked Zhong Nanshan eighth: What is the situation of new type of coronavirus pneumonia?

CCTV News Client CCTV News Client January 21, 2020 00:04A-A +

In the evening of January 20, in response to the prevention and control of the "pneumonia epidemic of new coronavirus infection", Academician Zhong Nanshan, the leader of the high-level expert group of the National Health and Medical Commission, accepted an interview with Bai Yansong and responded to public concerns.

One
Bai Yansong: What is the difference between new coronavirus pneumonia and SARS?

Zhong Nanshan : The emergence of new coronaviruses is not only different from SARS, but also different from the Middle East respiratory syndrome. The infection of the new coronavirus has just begun, and it is climbing, so it is less infectious and less toxic than SARS. I think there is a difference between the severity of the disease and the transmission.

two
Bai Yansong: On January 19, the cumulative number of confirmed cases in Wuhan was 198, but the cumulative number of deaths was 3. Does this number mean that it is far less threatening to people than SARS in 2003, or is it because we have accumulated the SARS fight The battle has a lot of experience, so leading to such a number is not too much to worry everyone?

Zhong Nanshan: There are two factors. Once there is a new type of coronavirus infection, we do accumulate a certain amount of experience, and the treatment measures are greatly improved than before. On the other hand, because the disease is at an initial stage, the current case fatality rate cannot be comprehensive, and I am afraid that it depends on the development of the disease. We should be vigilant on this issue. The current situation does not represent the whole picture, because the disease has just begun and it is in a climbing phase.

three
Bai Yansong: There are very many new cases in the past two days. Is it because we have used new reagents to make judgments, including faster and more accurate detection, or is it also related to the law of the virus itself?

Zhong Nanshan: There are two reasons. For new diseases, the reagents in different areas are different, and an authoritative unit is needed to further confirm, and it takes some time. Another factor is that the situation was different the day before yesterday, yesterday, and today, to a certain extent, it means that the disease is relatively fast in local development.

four
Bai Yansong: Compared with SARS, this time it is concentrated in Wuhan, and places like Shanghai and Guangdong are imported cases. Is this good news for prevention and control?

Zhong Nanshan: The emergence of any acute infectious disease is not good news! In a certain sense, from an epidemiological point of view, it is not only concentrated in Wuhan, but also in two districts, which account for about 45%. These two districts have a feature, a relatively large so-called seafood market In fact, it is not seafood, but game and wildlife. According to preliminary epidemiological analysis from various aspects, it is actually transmitted to humans through wild animals, which is quite possible. But there is still a phenomenon of person-to-person transmission. This is the time for us to be vigilant.

Fives
Bai Yansong: What is the judgment on passing on people?

Zhong Nanshan: There is such positive evidence in Wuhan. Two patients in Guangdong have not been to Wuhan, but their family members were infected with the new coronavirus after going to Wuhan. After returning home, both families were infected with the new corona virus. It can be said now that there must be a person-to-person transmission.

six
Bai Yansong: Because it is a new type of coronavirus, to what extent do we know about it and how far is it to know the pathogen?

Zhong Nanshan: I still don't know enough about it. We can only in principle, first, it is a new type of coronavirus. Some of the symptoms it causes are similar to those of previous SARS. Second, it is not clear what animal it originated from. Just words from all aspects of epidemiological investigations are from a wild animal. The possibility is relatively large, for example, such as bamboo rat and tadpole.

Seven
Bai Yansong: From the perspective of medical experts, including how to deal with the entire medical system, what should I do? How should ordinary people prevent it?

Zhong Nanshan: It is contagious. It is now transmitted from person to person. At the same time, medical personnel are also infected. It is necessary to be vigilant. ① Do not go to Wuhan without special circumstances; ② Go to a fever clinic when you have a cold; ③ Wear a mask. Wearing a mask is still useful, in fact it is not necessary to wear N95. Because these viruses do not exist alone, they often reside in droplets. Ordinary surgical masks can still block most viruses.

Eight
Bai Yansong: Ordinary people realize what kind of symptoms they must go to the hospital for treatment. Is it a fever?

Zhong Nanshan: Because there is a lot of flu in winter, fever alone is not enough. Note: A person who has been to Wuhan or someone at home from Wuhan is a prerequisite. In addition, if you have a fever, you need to be vigilant. You must go to the fever clinic to see if this is the case, and do a nucleic acid test when necessary.

The number of confirmed pneumonia infections in Wuhan with a new coronavirus has soared in the Mainland. Among them, 15 medical staff in Wuhan have confirmed the infection. Professor Xu Shuchang, Chair Professor of Respiratory Medicine, The Chinese University of Hong Kong, said that it is not surprising that medical staff are infected because of the narrow space in the hospital, high-risk treatment for medical staff, or insufficient protective equipment to be infected.

Xu Shuchang took SARS as an example. Among 1755 SARS cases, 386 were medical staff, and 138 medical staff in Wales hospital were infected because they took care of one patient, and MERS Korea ’s Samsung Hospital also had 86. It was not surprising that 14 medical staff were infected while taking care of one patient.

Three new cases of pneumonia infected with coronavirus confirmed in Zhuhai

Source: This website Post time: 2020-01-20 21:37
　　
On January 20th, the National Health and Health Commission confirmed three confirmed cases of pneumonia in a new type of coronavirus infection in Zhuhai.

The patient was a family of three: father (78 years old), mother (76 years old) and daughter (49 years old). The parents took the high-speed rail from Wuhan to their daughter's house on January 11th. On January 15th, the father felt unwell and went to the clinic. January A suspected case of pneumonia with a new coronavirus infection was initially diagnosed on the 17th and transferred to the CUHK Fifth Hospital for isolation and treatment. The mother and daughter developed fever and other symptoms. On the 18th, they were transferred to medical observation for isolation. The CDC conducted an epidemiological investigation on patients, collected samples and sent them to provincial and national professional institutions for testing. Combined with the results of epidemiological investigations, clinical symptoms, and laboratory tests, the diagnostic expert group of the National Health and Health Commission on January 20 Confirmed. The city has organized all-out treatment, and currently the 3 patients are in stable condition.

Experts judged that it is currently in the season of high incidence of respiratory infectious diseases in winter and spring. It is also the Spring Festival holiday. Frequent personnel movements and the risk of new cases of coronavirus infection entering Zhuhai will continue to increase.

Zhuhai Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government attach great importance to the prevention and control of new coronavirus-infected pneumonia. The main leaders of the Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government convened the main leaders of the districts and the heads of the joint prevention and control departments to study and deploy prevention and control work. Under the guidance of the group, patient treatment and epidemic prevention and control were carried out in all directions. The first is to set up a joint prevention and control work leading group headed by the mayor, and set up 6 special working groups and 8 professional and technical groups to make every effort to ensure the protection of people and property. The second is to organize the city's medical forces to treat patients, set up designated hospitals, and set up a multidisciplinary treatment expert group. The third is to strictly screen and track close contacts and medical observations, increase case screening, and establish a "daily report, zero report" system. The fourth is to continue to carry out unified patriotic health actions in the city, focusing on increasing the environmental improvement of densely populated public places such as farmers' markets, stations, terminals, airports, and tourist attractions. Fifth, set up multiple supervision and law enforcement teams to supervise and inspect the prevention and control work of various districts and departments to ensure that prevention and control measures are put in place.

Experts reminded that citizens should take good personal hygiene protection, pay attention to maintaining indoor environmental hygiene and air circulation, and try to minimize activities in public places with no air circulation or dense crowds. Wear a face mask or cover your mouth and nose with tissues or clothing when you have a cough or sneeze to reduce the spread of germs. Pay close attention to symptoms such as fever and cough. If you have fever or respiratory infection, please go to a medical institution in time.

It is now very clear from the latest information that there is at least some human-to-human transmission of #nCoV2019. Infections among health care workers strengthen the evidence for this.

 

[tetano]

Doctor warns that infectivity is stronger than SARS



Pediatric emergency doctor Wu Changteng said on Facebook that the new coronavirus (2019-nCoV) has definitely entered the human-to-human phase. The mainland has also reported infections of medical personnel. He urged emergency medical staff stationed on the front line to pay attention to the need to be vigilant when encountering patients returning to Taiwan from the mainland. Everyone must take good precautions.
