Good morning
Yesterday, Hangzhou reported an asymptomatic person who had returned to Hangzhou from France.
On March 7th, the novel coronavirus nucleic acid was detected in a sample of nasopharyngeal swabs from a man returning from France who had no fever, cough, imaging changes of pneumonia, or any other obvious clinical symptoms.
The man arrived at Beijing Capital Airport on March 4 from Charles de Gaulle Airport in Paris, and arrived at Xiaoshan Airport in the afternoon of March 5. In the airport screening, he was in a normal physical situation. The community arranged a car to drive him home on Dinglan street in Jianggan District, along with a home-based isolation.
On March 6, the man asked for a virus test. Considering that he had a history of living in France, the community sent him to Xixi Hospital for examination.
On the morning of March 7, his nasal and pharyngeal swabs turned positive, while everything else was normal in his physical examination report provided by Xixi Hospital. He had no fever or other respiratory symptoms, and his CT showed no imaging features of pneumonia. Per the Novel Coronavirus Pneumonia Prevention and Control Scheme (Sixth Edition) issued by the National Health Committee, this is a case of asymptomatic infection.
It is reported that asymptomatic infection may also become a source of infection, but the number of viruses carried is relatively small and the transmission ability is relatively weak. The close contacts of asymptomatic patients need to be isolated for 14 days, though. According to the regulations, asymptomatic infected persons are not within the scope of daily epidemic notification, but if asymptomatic infected persons have symptoms during centralized isolation, they will be classified as confirmed cases and reported.
