On the afternoon of the 17th, Changzhou held a press conference on the prevention and control of the new crown pneumonia epidemic (the fifth session).
As of 15:00 on the 17th, 33 people were newly infected with positive nucleic acid tests in Changzhou, including 4 confirmed cases and 29 asymptomatic infections. Changzhou promptly carried out terminal disinfection of the case’s residence, workplace, and key areas where they stopped. A total of 68 positive infections were found in this round of the epidemic, including 10 in Wujin District, 8 in Xinbei District, 13 in Tianning District, 35 in Zhonglou District, and 2 in Economic Development District. A total of 27 confirmed cases and 41 asymptomatic infections have been reported. All cases have been transferred to Changzhou Third People’s Hospital for centralized isolation and medical treatment.
It was reported at the meeting that recently, outside the gate of Changzhou Sanhekou Middle School, because a parent who picked up the child from school did not wear a mask, the virus spread rapidly within a certain range, more than 30 people are infected. Changzhou once again reminds the general public that they must adhere to the standard wearing of masks in their daily life, consciously do a good job in personal protection, actively cooperate with epidemic prevention and control measures, minimize the gathering of people, and make the city of Changzhou temporarily “quiet” and control it as soon as possible. Epidemic spread.
