In response to the recent media reports of two cases of incubation period of more than 14 days in Henan Xinyang super routine cases of events, the relevant experts said in an interview with the news agency, the two patients belong to ordinary cases, the source of infection is still unclear. According to reports, Henan Xinyang Xinxian informed the confirmed case of Wu Moumou since January 14 from Wuhan to return to the new county to confirm the diagnosis, a period of 34 days, has been three times for nucleic acid testing, the first two were negative. The other confirmed case, Ning, took care of his father-in-law Zhang, who returned from Wuhan for treatment, from Nov. 13, 2019, until the confirmation of the diagnosis, which lasted 94 days. The two confirmed cases mentioned above sparked heated debates on major social media, with some netizens considering 34 days and 94 days as the length of incubation period for the two confirmed patients, which were considered to be supernormal cases. Medical staff check the patient’s treatment order in the hospital isolation ward. In response, Feng Zijian, deputy director of the Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention, said in an interview with China News Service that the source of infection for the two cases in Xinyang Xinxian, Henan Province, is not yet clear and cannot yet be judged as super routine cases. Previously, Zhang Guojun, head of the medical treatment expert group in Henan Province and director of the first department of respiratory and critical care medicine at the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University, also said in a media interview that after careful checking of the trajectory and onset time of the confirmed patients, the two cases of new crown pneumonia in Xinxian County, Xinyang, Henan Province, were ordinary cases with an incubation period of up to 34 days and 94 days, which is not accurate. Feng Zijian pointed out that the confirmed case Wu returned to Xinxian from Wuhan on January 14, fever symptoms appeared on January 25, hospitalized on January 28, the incubation time is normal. Zhang Guojun said that although the first 2 nucleic acid tests for Wu Moumou negative, because the clinical symptoms consistent with the new crown pneumonia, Xinxian People’s Hospital has been the patient in accordance with the protocol for isolation treatment until the confirmation of his condition, “after the 3rd nucleic acid test to confirm the diagnosis, which has to do with the situation of sampling, reagents, delivery time, etc., nationwide more such cases. ” As for the other confirmed case of patient Ning Moumou, Zhang Guojun said, “Although the source of infection has not been determined, but Ning Moumou suffered from New Crown pneumonia and his father-in-law is not directly related.” He said that on January 31, the new county had the first confirmed case of four cases, from Ning back to the county on January 31 to February 12 fever symptoms, in line with the epidemiological pattern of New Crown pneumonia, backtracking its activities, Ning is entirely possible that during the outbreak of New Crown pneumonia infection. At this stage, there is a public concern about the emergence of super-regular cases with an incubation period of more than 14 days, which could signal that the new crown virus is mutating and becoming more contagious. Feng Zijian said that it is not yet possible to conclude that the new coronavirus has become more infectious. The common incubation period for neo-coronavirus is 14 days, with most cases developing within seven days and some cases exceeding seven days. “Cases within the common incubation period account for about 95 percent or more, and there are some trailing data not in this, which is related to individual differences.” Previously, a case with an incubation period of 24 days had appeared in a paper published by Zhong Nanshan’s team, a member of the Chinese Academy of Engineering, which was based on a comprehensive analysis of the clinical characteristics of 1,099 cases of newly crowned pneumonia patients provided by 30 provinces, autonomous regions and municipalities and 552 hospitals nationwide. Feng Zijian said that the incubation period of up to 24 days is an individual case and there is no need to panic, “according to the current situation, the 14-day close observation period is still more reasonable and appropriate.” Content source: China News Network
