The relevant person in charge of China’s National Health and Medical Commission said on the 22nd that at present, the epidemic situation in China is generally stable, and many local clustered epidemics that have occurred before are showing a positive trend. The number of reported cases in Tianjin Omicron has continued to decline, and the risk of community transmission is basically under control; the number of new cases in Anyang, Henan is on the decline, and Zhengzhou and Xuchang have zero new cases for the first time on January 20; Shaanxi Xi’an for the first time on January 18. There has been zero new cases, and the epidemic has entered the final stage; the new cases in Zhuhai and Zhongshan, Guangdong, all come from centralized isolation and screening, and the risk of community transmission is gradually reduced.
The National Health and Medical Commission reminded the public that although the number of newly confirmed cases in China has decreased significantly, there have been reports of local clusters of epidemics in some areas recently, and the risk of epidemic spread and spillover still exists. In addition, with the Spring Festival approaching and the opening of the Beijing Winter Olympics just around the corner, the number of inbound people and the flow of people will increase.
The Spring Festival is approaching, and the policies of returning to the hometown have attracted much attention. The National Health and Health Commission emphasized on the 22nd that for returning people from different risk areas, all localities must accurately implement prevention and control measures by classification and division to prevent simplification of policy implementation, one-size-fits-all, and prevent layer-by-layer overweight.

Expert: “human-to-human transmission” is not the main transmission route of the new coronavirus
Recently, cases in many places in China are suspected to be infected by contaminated international mail, international express delivery and other inbound items. In response, He Qinghua, a first-level inspector of the National Health Commission’s Bureau of Disease Control and Prevention, responded on the 22nd that from the perspective of global research and prevention and control practices, The new coronavirus is infected through the respiratory tract, mainly through close contact between people. Human infection caused by contaminated items is not the main transmission route of the new coronavirus, but this possibility cannot be ruled out.
He Qinghua said that according to the analysis of experts, the evidence that non-refrigerated imported items caused domestic personnel to be infected is not yet sufficient, and further research is needed, and the risk of epidemic prevention and control needs to be closely observed and evaluated. At present, the focus of epidemic prevention and control is still to prevent human-to-human transmission.
According to a report from the National Health and Medical Commission, as of January 21, a total of 2.96 billion doses of the new coronavirus vaccine have been reported in mainland China, and 1.22445 billion people have completed the whole course of vaccination. (Finish)Return to Sohu, see more
