Novel coronavirus pneumonia prevention and control work was held in Xi’an in April 16th. The press conference (seventy-second games) was held. The deputy director of the office of Xi’an epidemic prevention and control headquarters and Deputy Secretary General of the municipal government Zhang Fenghu introduced the relevant situations.
From April 2 to 24:00 on April 15, a total of 43 local positive cases were reported in Xi’an
From 0:00 to 24:00 on April 15, there was one newly confirmed local case and one asymptomatic infection in Xi’an, all of which were found in centralized isolation personnel. Since it was found that people with positive infection were imported from outside the province on April 2, Xi’an has adhered to accurate prevention and control by zoning, grading and differentiation, continuously increased the control of touch and discharge of people returning from high epidemic areas, internally strengthened the management of key industries and key populations, and comprehensively used methods such as accurate flow investigation and large-scale nucleic acid screening to ensure the rapid disposal of the epidemic. As of 24:00 on April 15, 43 local positive cases have been reported in total, and 2 cases have been cured and discharged. Now 41 cases have been treated in the hospital and their condition is stable.
The 4-day temporary social control is to completely cut off the communication chain
On April 15, Xi’an epidemic prevention and control headquarters issued a notice to implement four-day temporary social control measures in the whole city from 0:00 on the 16th to 24:00 on the 19th. After the announcement, some citizens interpreted it as Xi’an to “close the city”. Some citizens were worried that they could not buy vegetables and see a doctor after the implementation of strict control, resulting in a certain degree of panic. The implementation of temporary social control measures is not equal to “closing the city”. Xi’an is not “closing the city” or “closing the city”. Please don’t panic. Temporary social control is a necessary arrangement to completely cut off the transmission chain and eliminate risks as soon as possible according to the characteristics of the epidemic. Reducing the flow of people and strengthening risk investigation are the most direct and effective measures to block the spread of the epidemic.
Seize the 4-day window period to achieve maximum prevention and control at the least cost
The social cases found in this epidemic are mainly freight logistics employees, who are highly mobile and have the possibility of human to human and material to human transmission at the same time. Therefore, it is decided to implement temporary social control in the whole city. The 4-day incubation period is mainly considered as the temporary incubation period of aorong virus. The last reported social case was found on April 13 and confirmed on April 14. In order to seize the four-day window period and strive to achieve the maximum prevention and control effect at the least cost, it was decided that the temporary social control measures should be implemented until 24:00 on April 19.
Food and beverage enterprises will suspend the opening of places with dense staff
The main purpose of implementing temporary social control is to reduce social mobility, quickly find out potential risk sources and reduce the risk of cross infection on the premise of not affecting the normal production and living order of the society.
Take measures to suspend the opening of large commercial complexes, places of leisure and entertainment, places of cultural activities and other densely populated places; Strictly implement the normalized epidemic prevention and control measures, and the community (Village) can still enter and exit in an orderly manner; Enterprises and institutions continue to operate normally; The city’s public transport still maintains the basic transport capacity; Supermarkets, convenience stores, farmers’ markets, medical institutions and retail pharmacies closely related to daily life operate normally; Catering enterprises suspend in-house food and provide takeout ordering services.
The supply of materials in the market is stable, and citizens do not have to rush to buy and hoard
While formulating temporary social control measures, Xi’an epidemic prevention and control headquarters has made special arrangements for the reserve supply of production and living materials, residents’ medical treatment, emergency medical aid, plumbing and electrical security, emergency disposal and other work during this period. At present, the supply of materials in the whole city market is stable. Please do not panic and rush to buy and hoard. The community front-line staff have also organized a special volunteer service team to strengthen the protection of people’s daily life, especially for some special groups such as the elderly living alone, pregnant women, the disabled and patients with chronic diseases. They will continue to strengthen care and care, and help collect, purchase and distribute the needs of daily necessities and drugs. If citizens and friends have needs, please contact the community staff in time.
Large scale nucleic acid detection continued on April 17 and April 19
While continuing to pay close attention to the medical treatment of existing cases and strictly standardize the isolation and control of close contact personnel, we will continue to strengthen the investigation of internal risks and hidden dangers and the input of external prevention. Ensure that the potential risks of all key areas and key personnel are dug deep, thoroughly and thoroughly. In order to further eliminate the risk of community transmission, it is planned to conduct another global nucleic acid test on April 17 and 19, respectively. Please do a good job in personal protection according to the notice of the community, participate in sampling in a timely and orderly manner, and ensure that no one should be missed in large-scale nucleic acid screening.
Increase the travel code and 48 hour nucleic acid detection of returning personnel in risk areas
As of 9:00 on April 16, in addition to Xi’an, there are 14 high-risk areas and 181 medium risk areas in other provinces and cities in China, involving 15 provinces (autonomous regions and municipalities directly under the central government). The new cases in some provinces and cities are still at a high level. In view of this situation, Xi’an will continue to strengthen the inspection of health code, travel code and 48 hour nucleic acid test negative certificate of returning personnel in risk areas at the “one field, two stations” and the bayonet of ring road.
