At 3:00 pm on March 11, Jilin Province held a press conference on epidemic prevention and control to give an update on the epidemic prevention situation.
As of 13:00 on the 11th, a total of 526 confirmed cases of new coronary pneumonia in Jilin Province this round of epidemic
On March 1, a local epidemic of new coronary pneumonia occurred in Jilin Province.As of 13:00 on March 11, the province has reported a total of 526 confirmed cases of new coronary pneumonia. including 396 cases in Jilin City, 78 cases in Changchun City, 51 cases in Yanbian Prefecture, and 1 case in Songyuan City;A total of 590 cases of asymptomatic infections have been reported in the province Among them, there were 428 cases in Jilin City, 120 cases in Changchun City, 33 cases in Yanbian Prefecture, 5 cases in Meihekou City, 2 cases in Siping City, and 1 case each in Liaoyuan City and Songyuan City.
The epidemic virus strain in Jilin Province is the Omicron variant BA.2 evolutionary branch, which was imported into Jilin in late February
Through virus whole-genome sequencing analysis,The virus strain in Jilin Province this time is the evolutionary branch of the Omicron variant strain BA.2. Combined with genome sequencing and analysis of epidemiological investigations of previously reported infected persons,It is preliminarily judged that the epidemic was imported into Jilin Province in late February and spread locally.
This epidemic spread in Jilin Province, the clinical symptoms of the hidden infection were not obvious, and the infection was difficult to detect in the early stage
The clinical symptoms of infected people in this epidemic are not obvious, mainly asymptomatic or showing mild symptoms, and it is difficult to detect the infection in the early stage. Among the reported infections, asymptomatic infections accounted for 52.87%; among the confirmed cases, there were 521 mild cases and 5 common cases, and the confirmed cases were mainly mild cases. After individual infected persons were infected with the virus, the new coronavirus was only detected following multiple nucleic acid tests.
In addition, the epidemic spread in Jilin Province is hidden, the virus has strong infectivity, and the speed of transmission is fast. Some infected people are contagious following one day of infection, and the passage of the virus is short. The outbreak occurred at the beginning of the spring semester. The increase in cross-regional flow of people further accelerated the spread of the epidemic. Clusters of epidemics occurred in some schools. The situation of community prevention and control and campus prevention and control was severe and complex, and prevention and control were difficult. Activities such as gatherings and markets in rural areas have also accelerated the spread of the epidemic, and clustered epidemics have appeared in some rural areas.
All regions are reminded to strengthen the investigation and control of people who have recently flowed out of the epidemic-risk areas, standardize nucleic acid sampling and encrypt the frequency of nucleic acid testing, and strictly prevent the cross-regional transmission of the epidemic.
Changchun City’s communities (village) and units implement closed management Enterprises and institutions stop operating Start three rounds of nucleic acid testing for all staff Measurement
In view of the recent sporadic confirmed cases of the new crown in Changchun, in order to effectively control the spread of the epidemic, the Municipal Epidemic Prevention and Control Headquarters has decided to launch three rounds of nucleic acid testing for all staff across the city.

Public security officers, medical staff and other necessary mobile personnel need to hold relevant certificates or certificates issued by the epidemic prevention and control headquarters to enter and exit.
3. Complete nucleic acid detection with high quality. This nucleic acid test requires that all inspections must be carried out, and no one will be left behind. Please pay close attention to the nucleic acid test time in this area, participate in the nucleic acid test on time as notified, and do personal protection work as required, and return home immediately following the test.
This notice will be implemented from the date of publication, and the time of lifting the closed management will be notified separately. Thank you to the general public for your support and cooperation!
