On the afternoon of November 6, the joint prevention and control mechanism of the State Council held a press conference to report on the situation related to the current round of epidemic.

Wu Liangyou, deputy director of the Disease Control Bureau of the National Health Commission, pointed out that from October 17 to November 5 at 24:00, a total of 918 cases of infection were reported nationwide, affecting 44 cities in 20 provinces. The results of viral gene sequencing and flow tracing show that the current outbreak is caused by multiple unrelated overseas import sources.

Wu Liangyou said that in general, the epidemic has the characteristics of many transmission chains, fast transmission speed and wide transmission range, and the prevention and control situation of "external prevention of import and internal prevention and rebound" is still severe and complex.

The development of the epidemic situation varies from place to place. At present, Shaanxi, Hubei, Hunan and other provinces have had no new cases for more than 12 consecutive days, and the epidemic situation has been rapidly and effectively controlled in a relatively short period of time.

There have been sporadic cases in Zhejiang and Jiangsu in recent days, but there is no sign of community transmission.

The prevention and control effects of Inner Mongolia, Beijing, Guizhou, Shandong and other provinces and regions are gradually emerging. Community transmission has been largely controlled.

The low level of fluctuations in the epidemic in Gansu, Qinghai, Ningxia, Yunnan Dehong and other places does not exclude the risk of community recurrence, but the risk of spillover is low.

The epidemic situation in Heilongjiang, Hebei, Henan, Jiangxi, Sichuan, Chongqing, Liaoning dalian and other places is still developing, and it is necessary to pay close attention to the trend of the epidemic.

Wu Liangyou said that the National Health Commission will pay close attention to the relevant progress, work with relevant departments to guide the implementation of the joint prevention and control mechanism deployment in various localities, continue to strengthen epidemic surveillance, and strengthen epidemiological investigation of cases and control personnel. Strictly implement the control measures for risk areas and risk personnel, strengthen the management of medical institutions and centralized isolation points, strictly prevent the risk of secondary epidemics, promote the timely implementation of various measures, and effectively control the epidemic as soon as possible.
