There are 848 cases of non -symmetrical infection in Tibet

On the afternoon of August 14, 2022, the Tibet Autonomous Region held the sixth press conference on the prevention and control of the new crown epidemic. Wang Shoubi, a first -level inspector of the Health and Health Committee of the Tibet Autonomous Region: As of 12:00 on August 14, there were 99 cumulative diagnosis cases in the region and 848 asymptomatic infected.

Since the 13th, the seven places (cities) in the district have notified the number of positive infections to increase significantly. There are three main reasons:

The first is to report the adjustment of positive strategies. Due to the sparse and low -voltage and low oxygen of Tibet, the review time is too long. In order not to delay the isolation treatment of the first -screen positive personnel and timely control the source of the infection, under the guidance of the Tibetan working group of the State Council ’s joint prevention and control mechanism, yesterday, the initial sieve positive personnel were temporarily reported in accordance with the symptoms or confirmed cases.

The second is the improvement of nucleic acid screening capabilities. Due to the serious insufficient detection ability of the early nucleic acid sampling, it was not detected in time. In the past two days, Tibet Autonomous Region has strengthened the strength of all parties and optimized the overall process of nucleic acid detection through the organization and leadership of nucleic acid testing, and has greatly improved nucleic acid detection capabilities.

Third, the virus characteristics are caused. According to the current gene sequencing results, this epidemic strain is Omikon BA.2.76 mutant strains. It has the characteristics of shorter latent period, stronger communication, and faster dissemination. Gathering infection has increased significantly. Regional nucleic acid testing is to "fish dry and clean" hidden in the crowd, so as to control the source of infection as soon as possible and cut off the transmission chain.
