Wang Bin, the inspector of the disease control bureau of the National Health and Health Commission, said that the current reports of asymptomatic infections, epidemiological investigations, and requirements for close contact management and confirmed cases. Basically the same.
Wang Bin introduced that asymptomatic infections were found in various types of medical and health institutions at all levels and required direct online reporting within two hours and epidemiological investigations within 24 hours. For asymptomatic infections found, 14 days of intensive medical observations are taken. In principle, the specimens can be released from isolation after two consecutive negative nucleic acid tests.
Wang Bin said that the targeted screening will be further strengthened, and the surveillance scope will be expanded to the close contact with the cases already found and those with asymptomatic infection, the concentrated epidemic situation, the active screening of key areas and key populations. Bring into play the monitoring role of the community and fever clinics, do a good job of tracking and managing the source of infections based on case clues, and improve the sensitivity of monitoring to detect asymptomatic infections in a timely manner and take centralized isolation measures in a timely manner. Epidemiological investigations should be carried out in a timely manner on asymptomatic infections found, the source should be identified, and relevant information should be released transparently.
