Original title: Is the third round of nucleic acid testing necessary for all employees in Kashgar, Xinjiang? | Political solution
Beijing News Express (Reporter Xu Wen) There are nearly 300 confirmed cases and asymptomatic infections in Xinjiang. According to the press conference on the prevention and control of the Kashgar epidemic in Xinjiang, the Kashgar area is conducting the third round of nucleic acid testing for all employees. Experts believe that the three rounds of testing are very necessary, and whether the fourth round of testing with all personnel is required should be determined based on the third round of testing results.
According to a press conference on the prevention and control of the Kashgar epidemic in Xinjiang on November 2, in order to ensure the health and safety of people of all ethnic groups in the region, starting on November 1 November, Kashgar has launched the third round of free nucleic acid testing for all employees.
The reporter noted that in the previous outbreaks in Qingdao and Dalian, all employees had been tested for nucleic acids. In the Qingdao epidemic in early October this year, Qingdao completed nucleic acid testing for tens of millions of people in the city in 5 days; in the Dalian epidemic in August, Dalian conducted a nucleic acid test for all employees in urban and rural areas, and performed a nucleic acid test at the core of the epidemic. Three full-time nucleic acid tests were carried out in the Dalian Bay area.
What is the need for three full-time nucleic acid tests in Kashgar, Xinjiang? Jiang Qingwu, a professor at the Fudan University School of Public Health, said in an interview with a Beijing News reporter that because some infected people may be in the incubation period and cannot be detected during inspection, they should get tested again after a period of time to avoid spreading the virus in the future. .
From 0:00 to 24:00 on November 2, the Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region (including the Xinjiang Production and Construction Corps) reported 5 new confirmed cases of new coronary pneumonia (all asymptomatic infections were transferred to the diagnosis); 13 new asymptomatic infections, all For Shufu County, discovered by nucleic acid testing and screening by centralized quarantine medical observation personnel; 1 case of severe disease changed to normal type. As of 24:00 on November 2, there are 62 confirmed cases (8 severe cases) in Xinjiang (including the Corps), all of which are cases in Shufu County, Kashgar; 231 cases of asymptomatic infections are from Shufu County and Kezhou A Ketao County.
Prior to this, the Kashgar area of Xinjiang completed the first and second rounds of nucleic acid testing across the region on October 27 and October 31, respectively, during which several nucleic acid tests were performed on medical observers. centralized quarantine.
“The number of infected people found in the full-staff nucleic acid test is less than once. This is a good phenomenon.” Regarding the third round of full-staff nucleic acid testing, Jiang Qingwu believes that the number of infected people detected this time will be higher than the previous two. Less.
Is it necessary to perform the fourth and fifth rounds of nucleic acid testing for all employees? Jiang Qingwu believes this depends on the results of the third round of nucleic acid testing. If the results are abnormal, the fourth round of nucleic acid testing should continue.
