  Where did the people who came out of the epidemic storm go?

  Health Times reporters inquired about Baidu's migration map and found that from July 20 to now, except for Jiangsu, Anhui, Zhejiang, Shandong, Shanghai, Henan and other places are the main emigration places of Nanjing's population;

  Most of the people from Zhangjiajie went to Hunan, Hubei, Guangdong, Chongqing, Zhejiang and other places; Henan, Shandong, Hubei, Shaanxi, and Beijing were the main emigration areas of Zhengzhou's population in the past 10 days.

  From Nanjing to Zhangjiajie, the number of epidemics in this transmission chain has continued to rise. Up to now, reporters have discovered from the circulation information notified by the health and health commissions of various regions that this wave of epidemics has spread to 15 provinces including Jiangsu, Anhui, Sichuan and Beijing26 city.

  The current round of the epidemic caused by Nanjing Lukou International Airport has been more than 10 days since its outbreak on July 20. According to the latest notification from the Nanjing Municipal Health Commission, as of now, Nanjing has reported a total of 204 local confirmed cases. Since July 26, Nanjing has carried out a comprehensive closed management of Lukou Airport and related staff, but the spillover caused by the epidemic at Nanjing Airport has not stopped.

  On July 26, the Dalian row of Liaoning detected 3 local asymptomatic infections. The flow survey showed that the 3 people had flew from Dalian to Zhangjiajie on July 17. On July 22, the three people watched the performance of the "Charming Xiangxi" theater in Zhangjiajie. After that, the eye of the epidemic has shifted. Wuhan Chengdu/Jiangsu Huai'an/Beijing and other places have reported infection cases one after another, and the trajectory of the circulation points together to the "Charming Xiangxi" theater on the night of July 22.

  In contrast, Zhengzhou's current round of epidemic appears to be "suddenly." On July 30, Zhengzhou City found a case of initial nucleic acid positive, which was later reviewed by the Zhengzhou Center for Disease Control and identified as an asymptomatic infection.

  In the follow-up analysis and nucleic acid testing, more infected people were discovered one after another. As of 18:00 on July 31, a total of 28 cases of new coronary pneumonia were reported in Zhengzhou, including 11 confirmed cases of new coronary pneumonia. According to the current circulating information on the 6 confirmed cases, all 4 infections occurred in the Sixth Hospital of Zhengzhou. There is no current information suggesting that the Zhengzhou epidemic is related to the Nanjing epidemic, and Nanjing is not involved in the trajectory of confirmed cases reported so far.

  The epidemic spreads in many places. What are the reasons?

  The source of the epidemic has always been the focus of public attention. The source of the Nanjing epidemic, which was announced at a press conference on July 30, directly pointed to the loopholes in the airport's epidemic prevention.

  "The virus sequence of the cabin cleaner case reported early in this epidemic is consistent with the genetic sequence of an imported case reported on the CA910 flight from Russia on July 10," Ding Jie, deputy director of the Nanjing Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, at a press conference As mentioned above, after investigation, it was found that these cleaning staff participated in the cleaning of the cabin of the CA910 flight. After the work was completed, because of the irregular protection and elution, individual cleaning staff may be infected, and then spread among the employees of the cleaning company; the company cleaning The staff also guarantees the garbage removal for international and domestic flights, and other airport staff are infected by contact with cleaning staff or the polluted environment.

  The emergence of infected persons associated with the "Charming Xiangxi" theater in Zhangjiajie also exposed the possible loopholes in epidemic prevention and control in some scenic spots in China under the background of the summer travel fever.

  "After evaluation, all the audience of the first show (18:00-19:00) Charm Xiangxi watched by the confirmed cases on the evening of July 22 belonged to high-risk groups." It is mentioned in the Announcement (No. 2) on the Control of Audiences in Xiangxi. According to the description of Zhangjiajie’s official website, there will be multiple performances in the charm of Xiangxi in one day, the first: 19:20, the second: 21:00, the third: 22:30, the performance venue-the charming Xiangxi Grand Theater 1 The field can accommodate as many as 2,800 people.

  Although Zhengzhou and Nanjing are both the “first point of entry” for domestic diversion of international flights, this round of infections that mainly occurred in the Sixth Hospital of Zhengzhou showed different characteristics.

  "This epidemic mainly occurred inside the hospital, and affected people, including cleaning staff, and even medical staff, and showed a state of local spread. The outbreak of this epidemic has not only adversely affected the control of hospital feeling caused by heavy rain, but also exposed a small number of hospitals. There are certain loopholes in the implementation of hospital infection control." Wang Songqiang, director of the Zhengzhou Center for Disease Control and Prevention, said at a press conference on the prevention and control of the new crown pneumonia epidemic in Zhengzhou on July 31.

  As of now, the source of infection in this round of the epidemic in Zhengzhou has not been announced.

  How to plug the loopholes exposed in this round of the epidemic?

  "If it can be proved that the third dose of vaccine is necessary, the next question is whether to use the original vaccine to directly boost the dose or to develop a new vaccine specifically for delta virus. Discussion." Li Tong, chief physician of the Department of Infectious Diseases of Beijing You'an Hospital, once introduced in an interview with a reporter from the Health Times.


  At present, all localities are still stepping up large-scale nucleic acid testing and containment loopholes in epidemic prevention. At the press conference on the prevention and control of the new crown pneumonia epidemic held in Nanjing on August 1, Yang Dasuo, deputy director of the Nanjing Municipal Health Commission, introduced that up to now, the entire city of Nanjing has carried out more than 26.61 million rounds of nucleic acid tests. 204 confirmed cases were found through nucleic acid testing.

  From the evening of July 28, Zhangjiajie also began to carry out "carpet-style" and "full coverage" nucleic acid tests for more than 375,000 people in the 7 sub-district offices of Yongding City, the whole Wulingyuan area, and the scenic area of ​​Cili Grand Canyon. According to regulations, tourists residing in Zhangjiajie must complete three nucleic acid tests before leaving.

  "In Zhangjiajie’s “Charming Xiangxi” performance, more than 2,000 people gathered in the theater to watch the performance. Among them, four of the audience were diagnosed with the new crown virus. In such a closed environment, all audiences are now tracked and inspected, not only To track the audience, we must also track their close contacts and their families." Zhong Nanshan, academician of the Chinese Academy of Engineering, said at the Air Purification World Opening Ceremony and Global Strategic Partner Cooperation Summit held in Guangzhou on July 31.

  Li Tong once estimated that by this fall, the third dose of voluntary vaccination may start to start the booster vaccination
