Guidelines for public prevention of pneumonitis due to new coronavirus infection (home observation)

　　Close contacts of confirmed cases of pneumonitis with new coronavirus infection should take medical observation for 14 days from the last day of contact with the patient. It is necessary to keep in touch with medical observers during observation at home, and to understand the key points of observation and care of the disease, and to master the hand washing, ventilation, protection and disinfection measures at home.

　　Specific recommendations during home medical observations are as follows:

　　(1) Place close contacts in well-ventilated single rooms and refuse all visits.

　　(2) Restrict the activities of close contacts, and minimize the areas where close contacts and family members share activities. Make sure the shared area (kitchen, bathroom, etc.) is well ventilated (keep windows open).

　　(3) Family members should live in different rooms. If conditions do not permit, keep a distance of at least 1 meter from close contacts. Breastfeeding mothers can continue breastfeeding their babies.

　　(4) When other family members enter the living space of close contacts, they should wear masks. The masks should be close to the face. Do not touch and adjust the masks in the living space. Masks must be replaced immediately due to wet and dirty secretions. After removing and discarding the mask, wash your hands.

　　(5) If you have any direct contact with close contacts, or leave the living space of close contacts, clean your hands. Clean your hands before preparing food and before and after meals. If your hands are not very dirty, use alcohol-free lotion. If hands are dirty, wash with soap and water. (Always use alcohol safely to avoid accidental swallowing or fire.)

　　(7) When using soap and water to wash your hands, it is best to use disposable paper towels. If not, wipe with a clean towel, which needs to be replaced when it gets wet.

　　(8) The materials used to cover the nose and mouth when accidentally coughing or sneezing can be discarded directly, or washed properly after use (such as washing handkerchiefs with ordinary soap / detergent and water).

　　(9) Family members should minimize contact with close contacts and their supplies. For example, avoid sharing toothbrushes, cigarettes, cutlery, meals, drinks, towels, bath towels, sheets, etc. Dishware should be washed with detergent and water after use.

　　(10) It is recommended to use chlorine-containing disinfectant and peracetic acid disinfectant, and frequently clean and disinfect items frequently touched by family members, such as bedside tables, bed frames and other bedroom furniture. Clean and disinfect bathroom and toilet surfaces at least once a day.

　　(11) Use ordinary laundry soap and clean water to wash close-contact clothes, sheets, bath towels, towels, etc., or use a washing machine at 60-90 degrees Celsius and ordinary household laundry detergent, and then completely dry the above items. Put the bedding used by close contacts in the laundry bag. Do not shake clothing and avoid direct contact with skin and your clothes.

　　(12) Wear disposable gloves and protective clothing (such as plastic apron) before cleaning and touching the surface, clothing or bedding contaminated by human secretions from close contacts. Clean and disinfect hands before wearing gloves and after removing them.

　　(13) If there are suspicious symptoms in close contacts of confirmed cases, including fever, cough, sore throat, chest tightness, dyspnea, mild anorexia, fatigue, weaker spirit, nausea and vomiting, diarrhea, headache, palpitation, conjunctivitis 5. Mild soreness of limbs or lower back muscles, etc., should seek medical treatment immediately. Specific guidance recommendations are as follows:

　　1. On the way to the hospital, patients should wear medical surgical masks or N95 masks.

　　2. If possible, avoid taking public transport to the hospital and open windows on the road.

　　3. Wear a mask at all times and maintain hand hygiene at all times. Stay as far away as possible (at least 1 meter) while on the road and in the hospital.

Figure 2 Daily epidemic curve of new coronavirus cases in Mainland China in 2019
(As of 24:00 on January 27, 2020)

The epidemic situation of new coronavirus in Wuhan is still spreading, and the number of cases is increasing.
The virus has spread to Huanggang, Xiaogan, Jingmen, Enshi, Xiantao, etc. outside Wuhan
city. With the exception of Hubei, cases have been reported in 29 provinces in the Mainland. Currently, the vast majority of cases
Related to Wuhan, some cases are secondary cases.
Due to obvious community transmission in Wuhan and parts of Hubei Province, coupled with disease
Early symptoms of the disease are mild and there are mild cases, it is difficult to be diagnosed and isolated in time, causing social
The accumulation of infectious sources in the area makes it more difficult to control the spread of the disease. In the future, Wuhan
The number of cases in Hubei will continue to increase. Wuhan, Huanggang, Xiaogan, Hubei
In other places, we have suspended public transportation, stopped crowd gathering activities, strengthened community prevention and control, and actively
Measures such as detection and examination of fever patients and intensification of patient admission have significantly increased prevention and control efforts
Strong. The implementation of these measures will have a positive impact on the effective control of the epidemic.
Provinces (municipalities / autonomous regions) outside Hubei are still dominated by imported epidemics
At this stage, no obvious community transmission has occurred. At present, all provinces have launched high-level emergency response

Should take strong actions, adopt a variety of measures and technical means, strictly investigate and control, and timely
Identify and early isolate imported cases and subsequent infections, and resolutely curb community transmission.

(2) Changes in case definition

Definition of suspected case
The first edition of the "Pneumonia Diagnosis and Treatment Program for New Coronavirus Infection" on January 15
"Checking a case" is defined as meeting the following two at the same time: First, epidemiological history, within two weeks before the onset of illness
Have Wuhan travel history, or relevant markets in Wuhan, especially farmers' markets directly or indirectly
Touch history. The second is the clinical manifestations: fever, pneumonia imaging features, total white blood cells in the early stages of onset
Normal or decreased counts, or decreased lymphocyte counts, after 3 days of standard antibacterial treatment (see
According to the Chinese Adult Community Acquired Pneumonia Diagnosis and
Treatment Guide (2016 Edition) and National Community Health Committee's "Child Community Acquired Pneumonia Diagnosis"
Treatment Standards (2019 Edition) "), no significant improvement or progressive exacerbation of the condition.

On January 18, the second edition of the treatment plan changed the name of "observed case" to "suspected disease"
". Given the suspected cases of no market exposure in some areas outside Hubei Province,
Suspected cases are defined as meeting both of the following, one is epidemiological history, two weeks before onset
Have a history of travel or residence in Wuhan; or have been in Wuhan within 14 days before the onset of illness
Of patients with fever with respiratory symptoms or clustered onset. Second, the clinical manifestations have
Fever with imaging characteristics of pneumonia described in the diagnosis and treatment plan; normal white blood cells in the early stages of onset
Or decreased, or decreased lymphocyte count. Go to the "3 days of standard antibacterial treatment" standard
The goal is to diagnose cases as early as possible. First new type of coronary disease in provinces other than Hubei
Suspected cases of pneumonia due to viral infection need to be tested for viral nucleic acid positive by the provincial CDC.
The National Center for Disease Control and Prevention or a third-party testing agency has performed a positive nucleic acid test review.
The diagnosis group under the Health Committee's Epidemic Response Leadership Group is based on the clinical manifestations and prevalence of the case.
Medical history, laboratory test results, etc. were evaluated and confirmed.


On January 22, the definition of suspected cases in the third edition of the treatment plan was the same as in the second edition. But doubt
Changes in reporting procedures for similar cases: medical staff at all levels and types of medical institutions
Suspected cases as defined by the case should be treated in isolation and reported to the medical institution
Relevant departments and disease control centers under the jurisdiction, medical institutions organize the hospital or district (county) within 2 hours
Relevant expert consultations, such as viral pneumonia caused by common respiratory pathogens,
Specimens should be collected in time for pathogen detection.

On January 27, suspected cases in the fourth edition of the treatment plan were defined in the third edition of the treatment plan.
On the basis, the content of epidemiological history has been added. Article 3
There are epidemiological associations in cases and positive testers. Suspected cases are defined by any
Which one is consistent with any two of the clinical manifestations; if there is no clear epidemiological history, it is consistent with clinical
3 in the performance.

2. Definition of confirmed cases
The confirmed cases in the first version of the diagnosis and treatment plan were defined as:
Sputum, pharyngeal swabs and other respiratory specimens were sequenced for the entire genome of the virus, and
The virus is highly homologous.
The second edition of the diagnosis and treatment plan defines confirmed cases as: the basis for meeting the criteria for suspected cases
Upper, sputum, throat swabs, lower respiratory tract secretions and other specimens were tested by real-time fluorescent RT-PCR
New coronavirus is positive for nucleic acid; or viral gene sequencing, with high levels of known new coronavirus
Degree of homology. On the basis of confirmed suspected cases, by China CDC or a third-party testing machine
The genetic sequence of the virus is highly homologous to the new coronavirus.
The diagnosis group under the treatment leadership group is based on the clinical manifestations, epidemiological history, and experiments of the case.
The results of laboratory tests are evaluated and confirmed.
The definition of confirmed cases in the third edition of the treatment plan is the same as in the second edition. Confirmation procedures changed
The first case in other provinces can be sent by the provincial CDC to the Chinese CDC or designated


Third-party review, no longer evaluated by the diagnostic team under the National Health Epidemic Response Leadership Group
Estimate confirmation.
The definition of confirmed cases in the fourth edition of the diagnosis and treatment plan is basically the same as that in the third edition.
Real-time fluorescent RT-PCR of liquid specimens was positive for new coronavirus nucleic acids. Confirmation procedures changed
It is the first confirmed case or clustered case of pneumonia of new type coronavirus infection in various regions.
(City) level disease control agencies conduct review and confirmation. For specimens from clustered cases, the original
Specimens were sent to provincial and national disease control agencies for further identification. If there is a large-scale agency
During continuous transmission in the district, the designated medical device shall be evaluated and approved by the local (municipal) disease control agency.
Confirmation by the laboratory.

(Three) the current awareness of key diseases
Main symptoms are fever, fatigue, and dry cough. Few patients have nasal congestion, runny nose, abdomen
Diarrhea and other symptoms. Severe cases develop dyspnea after one week, and severe cases progress rapidly to acute
Respiratory distress syndrome, septic shock, difficult-to-correct metabolic acidosis, and coagulation function
Energy barrier.

It is worth noting that in the course of severe and critically ill patients, there can be moderate to low fever, or even no fever.

Obvious fever. Some patients only show low fever, mild fatigue, etc., without pneumonia manifestations, mostly in
Recovered after 1 week.

The male-to-female ratio found so far is 1.2: 1. Median age is 48

The range is from 9 months to 96 years, and less than 0.6% of cases are under 15 years of age. Incubation period
3 to 7 days, up to 14 days.

Patients with underlying diseases and older age are more likely to develop
Severe illness and death.

New coronavirus nucleus has been detected in influenza-like case surveillance specimens

Acid-positive and evidence of recessive infection, so it is speculated that the severity and mortality may be lower than current
Severe cases and deaths accounted for the proportion of confirmed cases. Specific clinical infection profile remains to be seen

Further research on the evidence.
Based on the results of traceability investigations and tests, the incidence and identification of new coronaviruses
We know that the new coronavirus 2019 is believed to originate from wild animals, but the specific animals are still unknown

Chu. Although the virus spillover from animals to humans and the completion of the adaptive mutation process occurred in Wuhan
The Hanhua South Seafood Wholesale Market needs further confirmation, but the Wuhan South China Seafood Wholesale Market is an epidemic.
The main source of infection in early cases. Current evidence suggests the main route of transmission of the virus
Mainly for respiratory droplet transmission and close contact transmission. The virus is highly contagious,
Interpersonal Communication Index (R0) is between 2 and 3. There is no reliable evidence that the disease
Contagious during the incubation period.

3. Public health measures
(1) Prevention and control during the spread period with the South China Seafood Wholesale Market as the center
The preliminary investigation recognized the epidemic surrounding the South China Seafood Wholesale Market

Middle-aged and elderly people, mainly those with chronic underlying diseases, have a relatively high risk of developing severe illness.

The China Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommends that during the epidemic prevention and control process, especially in areas with high epidemic outbreaks, the protection of children and the elderly should be strengthened. When the elderly go out, they should minimize their activities in public places and minimize public trips. For transportation, you must wear a mask when traveling.

In the family, children should reduce going out, especially to places where people are intensive. If the family has a corresponding upper respiratory infection, protect children and young children.
