At the Shanghai outbreak prevention and control press conference held today (10th), Zhao Dandan, deputy director of the Shanghai Municipal Committee of Health and Health, introduced to comprehensively analyze the results of epidemiological surveys and virus gene sequencing comparison results. The virus infected by a socially infected person is Omikon BA.5.2.1 mutant strain, which is an infected infected from overseas entry.

Zhang Boli: The strongest propagation power is currently known

"BA.5 strains are not only the most known strains known as the most well -known transmission, but the latest research has found that it has a stronger immune escape ability and repeated infection capabilities than the previous generation. Portugal, Britain, Israel and many other countries are popular, and it is likely to set off a new round of epidemic peaks globally. my country is facing greater pressure on foreign defense input. "On July 7, Zhang Boli, an academician of the Chinese Academy of Engineering, told reporters Essence On July 6, Beijing performed gene sequencing 1 to 3 infected on the 5th. The results showed that the viruses belonged to the BA.5.2 branch of Omikon.

Xi'an's epidemic virus is

Omikon mutant plant BA.5.2 branch

Earlier, a press conference on the prevention and control of the epidemic prevention and control of Xi'an City introduced this round of epidemic infected viruses in the infection of the infected virus of Omikon. Combined with epidemiological surveys, the source of the initial consideration comes from overseas.

Academician Zhang Boli said, "Recently, a new epidemic occurred in Xi'an, which opened the most severe epidemic prevention measures after the Spring Festival this year. The virus that caused the Xi'an epidemic was the new variant of the new crown virus — the strain BA.5. The strongest propagation of the strains. The latest research results in South Africa show that the R0 value of the BA.5 strain is as high as 18.6, which is the strongest virus of the currently known propagation ability. Recently, the virus gene of the virus gene of the clustering epidemic in Beijing The sequencing results show that the same comes from BA.5, which means that the BA.5 strains have been introduced to our country and caused local dissemination. The new situation of this epidemic needs to be highly valued. "
