To restore normalization, Zhong Nanshan said that there are 2 prerequisites! But not yet satisfied...
On the 4th, at the second Greater Bay Area (Shenzhen) Vaccine Summit, Academician Zhong Nanshan gave his latest judgment on issues related to the epidemic. A number of topics rushed to the hot search, causing concern.
How can normalization be restored?
How can we get back to normal? Zhong Nanshan proposed that there are two prerequisites: one is that the case fatality rate should drop to about 0.1%, which is basically the level of influenza, but it is still above 1%; the second is the replication index, which is between 1-1.5.
To this end, in terms of prevention and control measures, we must adhere to three points: the whole people are vaccinated and herd immunity is established; the prevention and control of community groups is normalized; and effective therapeutic drugs are developed.
Specific to China, Zhong Nanshan revealed that at present, the number of people who have completed the whole process of vaccination in the country has reached 1.125 billion, accounting for 79.76%. He stressed, "The case fatality rate of the Delta virus outbreak in Guangzhou and Nanjing this year is zero, which is very related to vaccination. The problem now is to strengthen vaccinations against the elderly, especially those over 70 years of age. ”
Talk about Omikeron: Most patients have mild symptoms
It is reported that 11 states in the United States have found Omilton virus strain infected; and in South Africa, where Omikejong was first found, the number of confirmed cases of new crown has nearly quadrupled in 4 days, exceeding 16,000. This also confirms Zhong Nanshan's judgment that The Infectivity of Omi kerong is stronger, "From the genetic sequence, Delta has 3 mutation sites, while Omilon has as many as 15." ”
As for the pathogenic rate, there are different views now, but Zhong Nanshan said that the current situation in South Africa and other countries, at first glance, most patients have mild symptoms.
What is the protection rate of existing vaccines, and will the ability of existing antibodies to neutralize new viruses be reduced? Zhong Nanshan said that it is now being intensively studied and still needs to be observed. "But in any case, we apply this dynamic zero-clear response, and adopt further precision prevention and control, and we are not afraid of Omicron." And in the world, many countries are now paying more attention to this situation. ”
Finally, Zhong Nanshan once again stressed that prevention is still the best way to prevent and control the new crown epidemic.
Is there a need to develop new vaccines?
Regarding the impact of the new coronavirus Omiljung variant on the current vaccine research and development, whether it is necessary to replace the strain for the development and vaccination of related vaccines, Zhong Nanshan said: "I don't think it is necessary to adjust immediately. ”
Zhong Nanshan analyzed that although the inactivated vaccine has a slightly lower protection rate, it does cover the widest range, "I believe it will not be completely ineffective against Aomi Kerong."
In addition, Zhong Nanshan also pointed out that there should be no problem in changing, but the cost is very large, whether to change depends on two factors, one is the spread of Aomi Kerong, the other is the pathogenic rate of Aomi Kerong, "if its pathogenic rate is not as terrible as we say", in such a situation, the new crown virus will slowly be like the flu.
Zhong Nanshan believes that now is not an urgent need to adjust the vaccine, we need to see the development trend of the Aumechjong virus in about two or three weeks.
