Beijing January 22 - the nightmare of the spread of SARS 17 years ago is not a distant memory for many Chinese. At present, with the Spring Festival approaching in 2020, the number of pneumonia cases infected by another round of new coronavirus is increasing rapidly. Due to the spread of "human to human" and the possibility of virus variation, the risk of epidemic spread is increasing, and the uncertainty of China's economic policy is also increasing.
At a press conference held by the new China office on Wednesday, officials from China's national health and Health Commission and other relevant departments gave clear information on the causes and consequences of the epidemic, how to prevent and control it, whether there is any concealment of the epidemic and how the public can strengthen self-protection and protection, and showed that China "has the confidence to defeat the new infectious disease and win the Resistance War of the epidemic" 。
"In the process of cognitive disease, I think everyone is concerned about the difference between SARS and mers. There are seven coronaviruses that infect human beings. Four of them are less pathogenic to human beings than seasonal influenza. We all know that SARS and mers are serious. We are constantly learning about this virus. " Gao Fu, academician of the Chinese Academy of Sciences and director of the China Center for Disease Control and prevention, said he also noted that there is no evidence that there are super communicators.
As of Tuesday, 440 new coronavirus cases of pneumonia had been confirmed in China, 9 deaths and 3 new cases, all in Hubei Province. We report 149 confirmed cases of pneumonia infected with coronavirus, 1 confirmed case reported by Japan, 3 confirmed cases reported by Thailand and 1 confirmed case reported by South Korea.
At present, 2197 close contacts have been traced, 765 have been removed from medical observation, and 1394 are undergoing medical observation.
Li Bin, deputy director of the national health and Health Commission, said that this has something to do with deepening the understanding of the disease, improving the diagnostic methods, optimizing and distributing diagnostic reagents to the whole country. He said that in the next step, we should strictly prevent and guard, control the epidemic in Wuhan, pay close attention to the work at the national level, and resolutely implement the epidemic prevention and control measures.
