BEIJING, July 11 (Xinhua) -- Beijing has had five consecutive days without new confirmed cases since the outbreak of the cluster outbreak at the wholesale market in Xinfa. Wu Zunyou, chief epidemiologist at the China Center for Disease Control and Prevention, said in an interview with CCTV on the evening of July 10 that Beijing's response during the outbreak provided a good example for the rest of China and the world.
"We are thinking, Beijing's response, there is no possibility of further shortening. Wu Zunyou said that through the analysis found that it can hardly be shortened. Each link is very compact, with almost no delay. The first time to detect cases, the first time to take measures, did not allow the virus to spread on a wider scale, Beijing's experience is worth summing up.most importantly, early patient visits are of concern to the health care system. Wu Zunyou said that if the patient infected with the disease does not go to the doctor, the virus will be quietly spread in the family, society. Therefore, the patient's initiative to seek medical treatment, the initiative to report is very important, should thank the first case of this outbreak to see the "West Side Master."
He also pointed out that the Beijing health, disease control departments responded quickly, timely locked the new wholesale market, active detection, early detection, while taking a series of combination of fists, a ring buckle, each measure accurately in place.

After that, decisively take a series of measures, including the temporary closure of the wholesale market in Xinfa, the implementation of closed management in the surrounding areas of the market, centralized medical observation of market practitioners, and actively expand the scope of nucleic acid testing, etc., to curb the spread of the epidemic.the new coronavirus that triggered this outbreak come from? Wu Zunyou said it was difficult to find the source of the virus. The sudden outbreak in Beijing 56 days later suggests that the virus must have been brought in outside.
, however, he believes it is difficult to find out the source of the poison. To do work from two aspects, one is an article, the other is a person. From a human point of view, a large number of leads have been investigated and investigated, more and more leads have been ruled out, and new leads are being carried out, and additional investigations into early cases are being carried out.
he said the supplementary survey answers two questions: First, they are also in business, some people are infected, some people are not infected, some customers are infected, some customers are not infected, what is the specific cause. Second, whether it's people or objects that bring the virus in. From the early onset of the practitioners, early customers to provide clues, can provide new ideas to carry out the investigation.the outbreak of the new wholesale market, Beijing quickly moved the emergency response level for public health emergencies from three to two.
Wu Zunyou, said there had been no new confirmed cases in Beijing in the past few days and the outbreak was under control. From the current situation of prevention and control in Beijing, even if there are sporadic cases, the nature of the outbreak before the end of sporadic cases, and the initial outbreak of new cases completely different, "will not pose a threat to society."
, Wu pointed out that there is currently a high-risk area in Beijing. Adjustments to the level of response are possible only after the high-risk area is downgraded to medium risk.
He said that looking at the past period of outbreaks, it is estimated that the next week high-risk areas may be adjusted to medium risk, after adjustment in a short period of time may consider the response level adjustment, estimated in a week to 10 days or so.
