Which area of ​​China is currently most severely infected?

Compared with other countries, the number of infected people is small, but Shenyang City in Liaoning Province is currently the most tense.

Shenyang City is a province of Liaoning Province, and more than 20 confirmed cases have been reported in the past 10 days, and a state of quarantine war was declared on the 30th of last month.

The state of war does not mean that the military is mobilized, it means that the quarantine is put at the head of the administration and resources and supplies are mobilized.

Therefore, the Shenyang city authorities have blocked residential areas for 100,000 citizens and practically prohibited daily departures.

In addition, 90,000 people classified as close contacts with the confirmed patient are in quarantine.

Shenyang City has also designated 11 small areas as medium risk areas.

In these areas, many public places were closed, except those selling basic necessities, and two metro stations were closed.

Chinese media reports that the infection in Shenyang started with a Chinese woman who arrived from South Korea last month.

In the capital city of Beijing, cases of infection from calling vehicle drivers have been reported, and more than 50 close contacts are now being quarantined and medically observed.

In China, around 20 infected people a day have been reported since late last year, and the area is gradually expanding.

Meanwhile, the confirmed cases on the mainland, excluding foreign entries, occurred mainly in Beijing, Dalian and Shenyang.

But yesterday, there was one in Hebei province around Beijing and four in Heilongjiang province in the north.

It was said that China will be seriously vaccinated the new year, but what about Beijing there?

[기자]

Vaccines officially began in Beijing, the capital, and Shandong province, which has a population of around 100 million, beginning on the first day of the new year.

State CCTV said these areas are scheduled to complete vaccinations for high-risk groups by the middle of next month.

Specifically, low temperature food workers, quarantine officers, medical personnel, etc. are the goals, and the general public is not accepted.

First, in the middle of this month, the first vaccine is given, followed by the second vaccination 2 to 4 weeks later for the antibodies to form.

Chinese health authorities also revealed that the target age is 18 to 59 years old, and even high-risk groups do not receive vaccines if they are 60 years old or younger.

In addition, since vaccines do not guarantee 100% antibody formation, it is recommended to continue wearing a mask or washing your hands after vaccination.

Chinese authorities say they have already vaccinated 3 million high-risk groups between the middle and end of month 15.

To avoid a winter reappearance of Corona 19, the policy is to complete vaccinations for high-risk groups until the next Lunar New Year holiday.

So far, this is YTN Sungwoong Kang from Beijing.
