Pulmonary Prevention and Control Command of New Coronavirus Infection in Yunmeng County

February 13, 2020
 
Ummm.....

Yesterday's cumulative total was 59,804. link Add today's new cases of 5,090 (see above) and the sum = 64,894.

The above report says the cumulative total today is 63,851.

The difference is 1,043 which is the exact number included in a parenthesis referred to as being in Hubei province. So apparently the two numbers need to be added together now.

Same thing with the deaths.

Yesterday's cumulative death total was 1,367. Add today's deaths of 121 and the sum = 1,488.

The above report says the cumulative total today is 1,380. If you add the Hubei province number that follows in the parenthesis of 108 you get 1,488.

And looking at Hubei's numbers from their press release, they reported 4,823 cases yesterday of which 3,095 were clinical so 1,728 confirmed.
They reported 116 deaths of which 8 were clinical so that tallies with the 108.

This seems to be a right mess at the moment.

Edit - It seems that they are claiming that they overcounted Hubei's tally by the stated amounts and have reduced the totals accordingly.

Chinese Health Commission: Nearly 2,000 Chinese medical staff were infected by the virus and 6 died
February 14, 2020 18:55
Voice of America

Washington —

A senior Chinese health official announced Friday (February 14) that 1,716 medical workers were infected during the fight against the coronavirus, of which 6 died.

Zeng Yixin, deputy director of the National Health Committee of China, said at a press conference on Friday afternoon that 1,716 cases of medical cases were reported across the country, accounting for 3.8% of the nation's confirmed cases, of which 6 people died unfortunately.

Zeng Yixin said that Hubei Province reported 1502 confirmed cases of medical staff, accounting for 87.5% of the confirmed cases of medical staff across the country, and Wuhan City reported 1,102 confirmed cases of medical staff, accounting for 73.4% of the confirmed cases of medical staff in Hubei Province.

Official Chinese figures released on Friday showed that 1,382 people died of pneumonia virus nationwide. The confirmed cases were 63946.

Zeng Yixin acknowledged that "the medical staff ahead is indeed very burdensome, the conditions for work and rest are limited, and the psychological pressure is also high, and the risk of infection is also high."

Chinese officials and hospitals have been complaining that the epidemic is spreading, but protective equipment such as masks is scarce.

A reporter asked whether the medical staff who were infected would be compensated. Zeng Yixin stated that the state has issued a series of policies to clearly identify medical workers who have been infected or died as a result of performing their duties, and that they are clearly identified as work-related injuries and enjoy work-related injury insurance benefits. Raise epidemic prevention subsidy standards, increase work subsidies and temporary labor subsidies.

Dr. Li Wenliang died this month, and his death triggered great public outrage, and they rarely publicly expressed their dissatisfaction with the government. Dr. Li Wenliang was reprimanded by the police for warning his friends at the beginning of the epidemic. Until now, the charges against him for spreading rumors have not been officially abolished.
 
And looking at Hubei's numbers from their press release, they reported 4,823 cases yesterday of which 3,095 were clinical so 1,728 confirmed.
They reported 116 deaths of which 8 were clinical so that tallies with the 108.

This seems to be a right mess at the moment.

Most definitely.

Thanks Ronan! "A right mess" is what I would call it.

Adding to the confusion is that they are supposedly counting all clinical cases in Hubei province while not counting them - or even some test positive cases - in the rest of the country.
 
Partial transcript from a news conference today. The NHC does confirm that Hubei counted some cases twice and then reduced the count last night.


 "...Thank you, host, below I will respond to some questions raised by netizens.
    
  The first question is that some people wear breathing masks on the masks. Some people think that wearing masks by suspected or confirmed patients may pose risks to the surrounding people. Is it true? It is true that the exhalation valve of the breathing valve mask is a one-way valve.When exhaling, the positive pressure of the exhaust gas blows off the valve sheet, and the exhaled gas is quickly discharged. Because there is no filter layer in the exhaust process, if the patient wears this mask, it may The virus is eliminated, so confirmed and suspected patients should not wear such masks.    

  The second question is that different scientific research teams have recently isolated a new type of coronavirus from stool samples of patients with new coronary pneumonia. In response to this risk, what protections should the public take to protect their own bathrooms? At present, the main route of transmission of new crown virus is mainly respiratory droplet transmission and contact transmission. As for the infectious diseases caused by the new coronavirus, since it is a new infectious disease, our understanding of it is a process of continuous improvement. We will also pay close attention to the research progress of the transmission of new coronary pneumonia, and timely preventive and control strategies and personal protection. Measures are updated and improved. For the general public, they should wash their hands carefully after using the toilet. If there is no confirmed patient, asymptomatic infection or close contact at home, the bathroom can be cleaned and sanitary. If there are close contacts at home, it is best to ask close contacts to use a separate toilet. If there is no condition, you can use a disinfectant such as 84 disinfectant to clean the toilet every day, and use the disinfectant to wipe the buttons, pads, the inside of the toilet, and Toilet door handles are easily accessible.

Develop good hygiene habits, wash your hands frequently, disinfect and clean, cook food before eating, and pay attention to personal and household hygiene, which can effectively prevent the spread of many intestinal infectious diseases.    

  The third question is whether to disinfect the mobile phone every time you go out. Many people are very concerned about this issue. The mobile phone is an item that we contact with high frequency. It is really necessary to strengthen its cleaning and disinfection. It is recommended to turn off the power of the mobile phone after returning home every time. After the mobile phone has completely cooled down, take an appropriate amount of 75% alcohol or use a disinfection product that does not damage electronic products, including wiping the surface of the mobile phone with disinfectant paper towels, and do good hand hygiene. If you do not use your phone after going out, it is not necessary to disinfect the surface of the phone.    
  The fourth question, some netizens asked whether sharing the washing machine with the patient during the incubation period will cause infection? It has been mentioned just now that according to the current understanding of the disease, the main transmission mode of the new crown virus is patients' respiratory droplets and contact transmission. The incubation period refers to the fact that there are no symptoms after infection with the virus, and there are no suspicious symptoms such as fever and cough. Whether there is contagiousness during this period has always been a concern. At present, domestic and foreign investigations suggest that the incubation period is more likely to be contagious and needs further confirmation, but the possibility of spreading the virus by shared washing machines is extremely small. Everyone can rest assured.

Guangdong expert: only 5 base mutations found in more than 30,000 bases of New Coronavirus

In the later period, the mutation of the virus will be closely monitored. If the mutation is large or has an impact on the medication, it will immediately report to the country.

Beijing News (Reporter Wu Wei) On the afternoon of February 13, Guangdong Province held a press conference on the latest situation of the new crown pneumonia epidemic. Zhao Jincun, deputy director of the State Key Laboratory of Respiratory Diseases, introduced the research situation of virus mutation. He said that only five base mutations have been found among the more than 30,000 bases of the new crown virus.

Zhao Jincun said that Chinese researchers have isolated multiple strains of the new crown virus and isolated and cultured the virus. "The virus isolated from different patients is still different from the first virus isolated from Wuhan. But for RNA viruses, the new crown virus has more than 30,000 bases. There are 5 bases that are different from the original virus. These 5 base mutations only account for a small part of 30,000 bases. "Zhao Jincun said that the virus mutation situation will be closely monitored in the later stage. If the mutation is large or has an impact on medication, it will be immediately reported to the country report.

(Originally titled: National Health Commission: 92% of more than 500 cured patients received early antiviral therapy-above)
At the press conference of the joint prevention and control mechanism of the State Council held on the 13th, Guo Yanhong, the inspector of the State Council of Health and Medical Affairs, said that we organized experts to conduct a preliminary analysis of 597 patients who were cured and discharged, and about 90% were diagnosed 10% of the light and ordinary types of the program are severe and critically ill. These cases were hospitalized for an average of about 10 days, and 92% of patients used early antiviral therapy or antiviral therapy combined with symptomatic treatment. Active respiratory support and circulatory support were also very effective. Some new technologies and methods, including the advantages of traditional Chinese medicine, all play a role in the outcome of patients.

http://health.people.com.cn/n1/2020/0208/c14739-31577593.html

...Taking the data released by the National Health and Health Commission on February 7 as an example, a total of 34,546 confirmed cases were reported, 2,050 were cured and discharged, and 722 died. The 7-day mortality rate was about 2.1%.....

Jiao Jiahui said: "As of 24:00 on February 3, the cumulative number of confirmed cases of pneumonia associated with new-type coronavirus infections in the country was 20,438, and the cumulative deaths were 425. Based on this figure, the national fatality rate is the number of confirmed cases. The case fatality rate is 2.1%. "She also pointed out that the case fatality rate of confirmed cases in Hubei Province is 3.1%, and the case fatality rate in Wuhan is 4.9%, all higher than the national level....
...
She explained: "The average length of hospitalization of these 500 patients who were discharged was about 10 days. Through the summary, some antiviral treatment methods were found in the treatment methods, including symptomatic and supportive therapies, especially the use of traditional Chinese medicine. , All have very good results. We will actively summarize these experiences and incorporate them into the diagnosis and treatment plan to guide clinical treatment work, thereby greatly improving the cure rate. "

Epidemic of new coronavirus pneumonia in Beijing

Someone died, someone was "uninfected", why the new crown symptoms are so unpredictable


During the epidemic, the stories of the sick affected the hearts of the people across the country.

Some people have mild symptoms and gradually self-healing; others suddenly worsen or even die early; others are infected but have become "silent communicators" because they have no symptoms ...

Why are the symptoms after a new coronavirus infection so diverse?

Symptoms vary, individual incubation periods are long, and asymptomatic transmission is possible-the "slyness" of this virus seems to be far beyond our expectations.

In response, the two experts told the China Science News that these "sly" features of the new coronavirus are not uncommon in the virus and should not be taken lightly, but they do not need to be demonized.

At the same time, experts also warned that the virus with a long incubation period and strong concealment may eventually become a common infectious disease, and urge everyone to make relevant plans and preparations.

"Science in China": After the infection of new coronavirus in humans, there are no symptoms, from mild to severe to death-why the symptoms of new coronavirus infection are so diverse? What factors determine the outcome of an infected person?

▲ He Jinsheng, Professor of Life Science and Bioengineering Research Institute of Beijing Jiaotong University:

Patients infected with the same virus have different outcomes and are indeed affected by many factors, and differences in individual genetic factors also exist.

After the virus infects the host, it will arouse the host to produce an innate immune response mechanism including interferon to inhibit the virus's proliferation in the cell and its spread in the body.

The level of interferon response is affected by both the virus and the host.

From a viral perspective, this response must be inhibited, which is a general rule; from the perspective of the host, due to genetic and other factors, the level of innate immune response among individuals is different, and the subsequent adaptive immune response is also different. of.

Differences in immune response can affect disease progression, outcome, and prognosis.

Objectively speaking, the factors that affect the condition of new coronary pneumonia this time are relatively complex. Age factors, underlying diseases, admission time and medical level cannot be ignored. Even so, the influence of individual genetic factors is also present. Not uncommon.

Taking herpes simplex virus infection as an example, in most people it is mainly caused by localized herpes of the mucosa and skin. The symptoms are mild and not life-threatening, but in some patients, lethal encephalitis will occur. The occurrence is related to the mutation of related genes in the patient's innate immune response pathway.

In addition, like poliovirus-infected children, the vast majority have no sequelae of spinal paralysis, but a very small number of children will remain disabled for life.

There are also opinions that a similar situation exists in these sequelae children.

Of course, individual differences are not entirely determined by genetic factors, but also related to good health and exercise habits.

At present, the "cytokine storm" hotly debated, there are also factors of individual genetic differences.

"China Science News": The "asymptomatic transmission" of the new coronavirus and the incubation period of 14 days or even longer may have caused great distress to the prevention and control of the epidemic, and caused some public anxiety. Is this a unique killer of this new virus?

▲ Shu Yuelong, Dean of School of Public Health (Shenzhen), Sun Yat-sen University:

No. Many viruses have this asymptomatic transmission. The incubation period of the new coronavirus is not much different from SARS, and the average incubation period is basically within one week.

▲ He Jinsheng:

In terms of long incubation period and highly concealed virus, the HIV virus must be among the best. Its incubation period ranges from six months to 15 years, and the average incubation period is about 8-9 years. And AIDS is contagious during the incubation period. In contrast, the latency of the new coronavirus is not surprising.

China Science News: Given the existence of tacitly infected people, are the data such as mortality rates we are currently seeing accurate?

▲ He Jinsheng:

The data we are currently looking at is based on the statistics of confirmed cases, with a fatality rate of about 2.7%. The actual fatality rate should be lower than this, because there must be a large number of people with recessive infections, no symptoms or only mild symptoms.

The actual number of 2019-nCoV infections can be analyzed by serological methods. At this stage, treating patients and fighting the epidemic is of course the number one task, but as an important work for disease prevention and control, epidemiological research should also be further strengthened and launched as soon as possible.

China Science News: Looking at the history of human and infectious diseases, has the new coronavirus we encountered this time refreshed our understanding of the virus? Can it be considered a particularly cunning "stubble"?

▲ Shu Yuelong:

The new coronavirus is indeed "cunning", but "cunning" is originally a characteristic of the virus.

The "cunning" of the virus greatly increases the difficulty and cost of prevention and control, but humans are not completely helpless.

If people with no symptoms infect others and cause illness, we can make epidemiological investigations to clarify the entire chain of transmission, and then carry out isolated medical observations of close contacts to control the infection to a minimum.

At present, I don't think this virus has refreshed our knowledge. It is just that for any new infectious disease, we have limited knowledge of it at the beginning.

▲ He Jinsheng:

The new coronavirus is indeed a "hard stubble", which is related to the general susceptibility of the population and the presence of asymptomatic infections.

But it is even more destructive. First, improper propaganda about the "decreasing threat of infectious diseases" and "improving and effective prevention and control measures" in the early stage has made the people and government officials lack sufficient mental preparation for the outbreak. That way, the situation will not be repeated. Second, the specific prevention and control strategy lacks a scientific and effective emergency plan. In the early stage of the epidemic response, it failed to face the public's questions frankly and failed to coordinate scientific research, disease control and administration The relationship between them did not show their respective strengths.

Therefore, in the face of the epidemic situation, the problems of being caught off guard and inadequate preparations were encountered. In the encounter, the opportunity for early control of the spread of the disease was not grasped in time.

The virus is "sly", but we should reflect more on ourselves.


"China Science News": It seems that human beings do not lack the experience of fighting "sly" viruses. From this point of view, what experiences and lessons does history give us?

▲ He Jinsheng:

Historically, a virus with a long incubation period and a strong concealment has a higher possibility of eventually becoming a common infectious disease, and it is difficult to disappear like the SARS virus 17 years ago.

The possibility of the epidemic becoming an infectious disease cannot be ruled out, and plans and preparations in this regard should be prepared.

In addition, the middle host, SARS virus, was soon found.

This time, for various reasons, the process of searching for intermediate hosts of the new coronavirus was not smooth. The intermediate host is not clear, there are hidden dangers in prevention and control, and "resurgence" may occur, which is also not conducive to us to understand the transmission chain and evolutionary history of the virus, and to strengthen the early warning of new or renewed coronaviruses accordingly.


"China Science News": Are our existing anti-epidemic measures and efforts sufficient to win this battle?

▲ He Jinsheng:

As far as I know, the current measures and intensity are unprecedented and the highest level. During the SARS period, only the communities where the infected people lived were closed. This time, the measures taken to close the city showed that this new type of coronavirus caused The actual impact is greater than SARS.

This is not only related to the high infectivity of the new coronavirus, especially to a certain degree of infectivity during the incubation period or asymptomatic, but also to the rapid development of the city in the past 20 years, and the scale of urban population aggregation and the concentration of activities has far exceeded that in 2003.

Since the closure of the city, in the absence of effective preventive drugs, and to ensure social development and stability, the preventive and control measures we have adopted are professional and effective, and we should adhere to and adjust according to changes in the epidemic situation.

In the process, in the face of the epidemic, no one can stay aside, and everyone must do everything in his power to avoid unnecessary mistakes.

China Science News: What measures need to be further strengthened?

▲ Shu Yuelong:

Monitor for mutations in the virus. In addition to tracking the spread and pathogenicity of the virus in the population in real time, it is also necessary to monitor whether the virus will infect other animals.

Zhong Nanshan's team detected live neocoronavirus virus in patients' feces with the possibility of "fecal-mouth" and "fecal-respiratory" transmission

Time: 2020-02-14 08:47:38 Source: Nanfang Daily Online[font: Tai Zhong Small ][Print]
  
On February 13, the Information Office of the Provincial Government held a press conference to focus on the clinical medical treatment work, and notified the province's scientific research results on the pathogenicity of the new crown virus. Academician Zhong Nanshan's team isolateda new strain of coronavirus from stool swab samples from patients with neocoronary pneumonia, suggesting that it may have a new route of transmission.
...
Zhao Jincun, deputy director of the State Key Laboratory of Respiratory Diseases of Guangzhou Medical University, introduced that the team isolated a new coronavirus (2019-nCoV) from a stool sample of a severely infected patient in the Fifth Hospital Affiliated to Sun Yat-sen University in the P3 laboratory.

According to Zhao Jincun, the academician Li Lanjuan's team from the State Key Laboratory of Infectious Disease Diagnosis and Treatment of Zhejiang University also recently isolated the virus from the stool samples of patients. Previously, there were reports of positive 2019-nCoV nucleic acids detected in the stool of confirmed 2019-nCoV patients, but it is unknown whether there are live viruses in the stool. "The isolation of the virus in the feces of patients provided important information for the development of China's new crown virus prevention and control strategy, which is of great significance to public health security."

He further pointed out that the live new coronavirus was isolated from the patient's stool, suggesting the possibility of "fecal-oral" and "fecal-respiratory" transmission, but further confirmation is needed for further research. "You don't need to panic, you can avoid participating in social gatherings, pay attention to personal hygiene, and pay attention to family environmental hygiene, including unblocked sewers."

In response to the question of whether the virus is mutated, Zhao Jincun said that the Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention, and the academician Li Lanjuan's team have performed virus isolation and culture, virus genome sequencing, virus isolated from different patients, and the first new crown isolated from Wuhan.There are indeed differences compared to viruses. But this is a common phenomenon for RNA viruses.

According to reports, the coronavirus is the largest RNA virus in the genome, with about 30,000 bases. The 5 bases of the new coronavirus isolated from the patient's stool this time are different from the original strain. This is the RNA virus's replication. A characteristic has a certain chance of mutation.

"The mutation of 5 bases is only a small part of the 30,000 genomes. We will closely monitor the mutation of the virus in the future. If a large mutation of the virus is found, or it has an impact on medication and monitoring, we will immediately Report to the country. "Zhao Jincun said.

Too early for optimism despite drop in new virus cases
By Liu Xin, Zhang Hui and Zhao Yusha Source:Global Times Published: 2020/2/14 12:55:33
Infection of medical staff draws public attention

...Possible surge

Yang Gonghuan, a former vice director of the Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention, told the Global Times on Friday that Wednesday saw hospitals clear a backlog of suspected cases, and that Thursday's plunge showed cases were being cleared.

However, the number of confirmed cases in Hubei will not remain at previous levels of around 1,000 to 2,000, as the local government has increased health screenings of local residents, Yang said.

"A relatively high number of confirmed cases in the near future could instead offer us some relief as we know it's the result of the government's efforts to trace and control infection sources," Yang added.

Seeing the plunge in Hubei's daily reports, some netizens were excited, commenting that victory over the virus is no longer distant.

However, Yang said it is way too early to celebrate or become too optimistic as the epicenter's total number of patients has not significantly dropped and the prevention and control situation remains serious.

“Hubei may see more confirmed cases as many cities around Wuhan that also face a severe epidemic situation would include clinically diagnosed cases. Compared to Wuhan, these cities have inadequate medical resources and they will face more pressure in receiving more patients,” Yang Zhanqiu, deputy director of the pathogen biology department at Wuhan University, told the Global Times.

For example, Huanggang and Xiaogan, two cities located less than 100 kilometers away from Wuhan, have a large number of residents working in Wuhan. Hubei officials did not give enough attention to the COVID-19 prevention in villages in the two cities, which made them another severely affected areas aside from Wuhan, Yang noted.

Xianning reported 200 new confirmed cases, Huanggang 162 and Xiaogan 135 on Thursday, as the top three in new confirmed cases in Hubei outside Wuhan...
 
[h=1]China has not allowed the United States and the World Health Organization to help China prevent and control the epidemic? Foreign Ministry response[/h]
Beijing Commercial Daily今天08:28Today at 08:28
  • Questions about the new crown pneumonia epidemic. Kudlow, director of the White House National Economic Council, said yesterday that the United States is somewhat disappointed that China has not invited the United States to participate and that China lacks transparency. The United States is very willing to work with the World Health Organization to help China prevent and control the epidemic, but China has not allowed it. What is China's response to this?
Since the outbreak, China has worked with the international community to cope with the outbreak in an open, transparent and highly responsible manner in global public health security and people's health.:rolleyes:

.., the Chinese and American health and health departments have maintained close policy communication and notified each other of the epidemic information in a timely manner. The ministers exchanged information on the prevention and control of the epidemic by telephone, communication and other means. Maintain various forms of technical exchanges; we welcome experts from many countries, including the United States, to participate in the joint China-WHO expert inspection team. U.S. President Trump and U.S. Health Secretary Azza have praised China's transparent attitude in preventing and controlling the epidemic on several occasions...

"Giraffes" also go to the hospital? It turned out to be a "cottage" protective suit
2020-02-15 07:20:51 Hangzhou Network

Look at the news Knews News A "Giraffe" came to see a doctor in the outpatient department of the Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital of Southwest Medical University.

It is reported that the "giraffe" lives in Naxi, and this time at the Chinese Medicine Hospital affiliated to Southwest Medical University, he was looking for Professor Ao Suhua, the director of respiratory medicine, to help his father see a doctor through a mobile phone remote video. Go out.

Protective clothing is a protection method for medical personnel who needs to be in close contact with patients, and uses special materials to block bacteria and viruses. Non-professional "protective clothing", such as inflatable doll clothing, may seem to be isolated from the outside world, but the gap in the clothes may still allow people to come in contact with the virus, and it will not provide absolute protection.


In addition, if you wear an inflatable doll clothes home, if you do not disinfect and clean up every day, you will still bring the bacteria attached to the doll clothes home.

This behavior is dangerous! Three families who didn't know each other were infected
2020-02-15 07:21:56 Source: Guangzhou Daily
share to:

The three families with confirmed cases did not know each other, but their infection process was related?

Recently, in Guangzhou, Guangdong, the CDC conducted epidemiological investigations of pneumonitis cases with new types of coronavirus infections, and through epidemiological investigations and other means, linked the epidemic of three unknown families.

Family A: A family of three has been affected

One day in early February, a disease control center in a district of Guangzhou received a case sample from a large tertiary hospital in the jurisdiction. After testing, the result was positive for a new coronavirus nucleic acid.

The onset was a hostess in the A family, a native. According to investigation by the disease control department, she did not have a history of residence or travel in Hubei or Wuhan 14 days before the onset of illness. She had been living in Guangzhou and had no contact with the affected people.

During the investigation, the hostess described her dinner before her illness, her activities, and her contact with friends and colleagues. She also mentioned that she had eaten out during her 30th birthday. The host and daughter of Family A were diagnosed the day after the hostess became ill.

Family B: Mistress confirmed

That night, the disease control officer received a report that the hostess of family B in the area was sick and was a local resident.

The hostess of Family B firmly stated that she had never contacted people from Hubei or Wuhan who came to Guangzhou. The CDC investigator did not continue questioning, and then called the male owner of Family B.

The male host is now being isolated at a fever clinic in a tertiary hospital, waiting for the results of his new coronavirus test. Under the guidance of disease control investigators, the male owner provided a message: at noon in the thirties, their whole family went out to a restaurant to eat.

Clue: Two people have eaten on the same floor

"Huh? Why is the name of this restaurant so familiar ?!" The CDC investigators remembered alertly that the family A who had investigated also said that they had eaten at the same restaurant for the same time period.

The disease control personnel continued to question A and B's dining position on the same day and found that the two were sitting on the same floor by the window!

Family A and Family B do not know each other. Is it the source of infection that these two families are in contact with at the same time?

Family C: Living near A and B dining restaurants

Soon, the cluster epidemic that had been dealt with in the early stages came to the minds of investigators.

Before the Spring Festival, a 10-member C family from Wuhan, Hubei came to Guangzhou for a tour. On the afternoon of the thirteenth year of the New Year, an elderly woman in the C family began to develop symptoms such as low fever and dry cough, and was diagnosed as positive for a new coronavirus after visiting the clinic. In the following week, another 4 people in the C family were diagnosed with new coronary pneumonia.

The cluster epidemic of family C was previously thought to be caused by Wuhan importation, and the incident has been processed at this time. However, the CDC investigators recalled that the hotel where Family C was staying was near the restaurant mentioned by the Family A and B. Is there a secret in it?

"Solution": Family C dining, two neighbors A and B

The disease control investigator immediately checked the previous activity history of the C family. It was confirmed by the other party's memory that family C had a meal at a restaurant where family A and family B ate at noon in the thirties.

"Where is your seat close?" Investigators held on to this. "By the window!" This made everything seem brow. The disease control department immediately retrieved the restaurant's surveillance video that day, showing that three families who did not know each other were sitting at three tables next to each other in the same row by the window that day.

Since the day was the thirtieth of the year, many citizens gathered in the restaurant for a group dinner. The tables in the restaurant were crowded, and the adjacent distance was within 1 meter, and the meal time was longer. Based on a comprehensive analysis, the CDC believes that this is a cluster of new pneumonia caused by a history of exposure to common dining restaurants.

Dinner is at risk during outbreaks
