Onset characteristics

 

Coronavirus

According to the existing case data, the new type of coronavirus pneumonia is mainly manifested by fever, dry cough, fatigue, etc.

A small number of patients are accompanied by nasal congestion, runny nose, diarrhea and other upper respiratory and digestive tract symptoms. Severe cases usually have difficulty breathing after 1 week, and severe cases rapidly progress to acute respiratory distress syndrome, septic shock, difficult to correct metabolic acidosis, coagulation dysfunction, and multiple organ failure.

 

It is worth noting that severe and critically ill patients may have moderate to low fever during the course of their illness, or even no obvious fever.

 

Mild patients only manifested as low-grade fever, mild fatigue, etc., without pneumonia. Judging from the status of the currently admitted cases, most patients have a good prognosis, and a few patients are in critical condition.

 

The prognosis of the elderly and those with chronic underlying diseases is poor. Symptoms in children are relatively mild. Popular features

WHO Director-General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus said on March 11, 2020 that the new crown pneumonia epidemic has become a pandemic.

 

Tedros said at a regular press conference in Geneva that the spread and severity of the epidemic is deeply worrying, "therefore, we estimate that the new crown pneumonia epidemic has pandemic characteristics."

He said: "We have never seen a pandemic caused by a coronavirus before. We have never seen a pandemic under control before."

He emphasized that describing the new crown pneumonia epidemic as a "pandemic" will not change WHO's assessment of its threat, "it will not change what WHO is doing, nor will it change what countries should do."

 

The new type of coronavirus pneumonia is in the early stage of rapid change. China has announced the complete genome sequence of the new coronavirus that causes the new coronavirus pneumonia, which will help scientists and public health organizations around the world to join in the research and development of diagnostic reagents and the pathogenicity of the virus.

 

The National Health Commission has issued Announcement No. 1 to include the pneumonia caused by the new coronavirus in the Class B infectious diseases specified by the Infectious Disease Prevention and Control Law, but adopts preventive and control measures for Class A infectious diseases, and at the same time incorporates it into the management of quarantine infectious diseases.

 

What is COVID Epidemic Level?


WHO's new coronary pneumonia situation report

WHO's new coronary pneumonia situation report

On February 28, 2020, the WHO's daily report on the situation of new coronary pneumonia showed that the regional and global risk levels were raised to the highest level "very high", which is consistent with China. The regional and global risk levels were previously "high".

 

On March 11, 2020 local time, the Director-General of the World Health Organization Tan Desai announced that according to the assessment, the WHO believes that the current new crown pneumonia epidemic can be called a pandemic.

 

What is Coronavirus Transmission Method?

According to CCTV news, the Shanghai epidemic prevention and control work conference introduced: Health and epidemic prevention experts emphasized that the main routes of transmission of new coronary pneumonia that can be determined are direct transmission, aerosol transmission and contact transmission.

Direct transmission refers to the infection caused by the patient's sneezing, coughing, talking droplets, and direct inhalation of the exhaled gas; aerosol transmission refers to the droplets mixing in the air to form aerosols, which cause infection after inhalation; contact transmission refers to droplets are deposited on the surface of the object, and after touching the contaminated hands, they then touch the mucous membranes of the mouth, nasal cavity, eyes, etc., resulting in infection.

 

On June 14, 2021, Canadian researchers published a paper in the British journal Nature Communications and found that the new coronavirus can infect North American deer rats and spread among rats.

 

Rescue patients with new coronavirus pneumonia


Rescue patients with new coronavirus pneumonia

The clinical manifestations of patients with pneumonia infected by the new coronavirus are as follows: fever, fatigue, and dry cough are the main manifestations. Upper respiratory symptoms such as nasal congestion and runny nose are rare, and hypoxia and hypoxia may occur.

 

About half of the patients have difficulty breathing more than a week later. In severe cases, they rapidly progress to acute respiratory distress syndrome, septic shock, difficult to correct metabolic acidosis, and coagulation dysfunction.

 

It is worth noting that severe and critically ill patients may have moderate to low fever during the course of their illness, or even no obvious fever. Some patients have mild onset symptoms, but no fever, and usually recover after 1 week. Most patients have a good prognosis, and a few patients are critically ill and even die.

 

What is Coronavirus Treatment Technique?

The eight anti-epidemic scientific and technological commando teams are patient prevention detection and diagnosis detection technology, ultra-sensitive quantitative PCR kit technology, antibody drugs and vaccines, indoor and building air disinfection technology, protein-based virus transmission blockers, and stem cells Inflammation treatment drugs, epidemiological research and psychological rehabilitation systems.

 

What is Coronavirus Diagnosis and Treatment Plan?

After the outbreak of new coronavirus-infected pneumonia, the National Health Commission issued the "New Coronavirus Pneumonia Diagnosis and Treatment Plan", and through the analysis of the epidemic situation and research progress, the basis for organizing experts to analyze, judge and summarize the preliminary medical treatment work The diagnosis and treatment plan was revised in time.

On January 16, 2020, the "Diagnosis and Treatment Plan for Pneumonia Infected by New Coronavirus (Trial)" was released.

The "Diagnosis and Treatment Plan for Pneumonia of New Coronavirus Infection (Trial Version 2)" was also released subsequently.

On August 18, 2020, the General Office of the National Health Commission and the Office of the State Administration of Traditional Chinese Medicine jointly issued the "New Coronavirus Pneumonia Diagnosis and Treatment Plan (Trial Eighth Edition)".

 

What is COVID-19 Discharge Standard?

On January 28, 2020, the National Health Commission notified the discharge criteria: the clinical symptoms are relieved, the body temperature is normal, and the two nucleic acid tests are negative to ensure that the discharge is not contagious.

 

The discharge standard is that the throat swab is negative twice, there are no symptoms, the body temperature is normal, and the CT is normal. After that, he will be isolated for another two weeks. 

If the anal swab is required to be normal, the patient will be overstocked and the bed will not be able to turn around. Therefore, it is still necessary to observe closely and carry out a hierarchical management of all patients.

 

Vaccine development 

On December 31, 2020, the State Council’s joint prevention and control mechanism announced that Sinopharm’s China Bio-New Crown Inactivated Vaccine has been approved by the State Food and Drug Administration for conditional listing.

On February 3, 2020, the Central State Organs Housing Fund Management Center issued the "Notice on Cooperating with the Epidemic Prevention and Control Work and Strengthening the Service Guarantee of the Housing Provident Fund for Central State Organs."


The "Notice" lists the pneumonia caused by the new coronavirus in the scope of housing provident fund for serious illness. Patients can withdraw their own housing provident fund for medical expenses, wholesale and retail, accommodation and catering, logistics and transportation, cultural tourism and other industries that are affected by the epidemic and make production and operation difficult.


 The enterprise may also apply for the suspension of the payment of the housing provident fund in accordance with the regulations, and resume the payment after the company’s benefits improve.

 

On February 20, 2020, at the press conference of the Joint Prevention and Control Mechanism of the State Council, Xiong Xianjun, Director of the Medical Management Department of the National Medical Insurance Administration stated that in order to ensure that patients will not be affected by cost issues and that treatment hospitals will not affect treatment due to payment policies. 

The National Health Insurance Bureau in conjunction with relevant departments, a fee reduction policy has been established for the special group of confirmed and suspected patients with new coronary pneumonia to provide protection for the prevention and control of the epidemic.

 

On March 30, 2020, I interviewed Xiong Xianjun, a comrade in charge of the Medical Service Management Department of the National Medical Insurance Administration, and learned that as of March 15, 31 provinces (autonomous regions, municipalities) and Xinjiang Production and Construction Corps reported that the country’s new coronary pneumonia has been diagnosed and suspected. 

The medical insurance settlement was 93,238 person-times (including multiple outpatient visits and settlements), involving a total cost of 1.039.6 million yuan, and the medical insurance system paid a total of 67.734 million yuan. 

The number of confirmed patients nationwide was 44,189, involving a total cost of 750.48 million yuan and a per capita cost of 17,000 yuan, of which the medical insurance payment ratio was about 65% (the remaining part was subsidized by the finance).

 

On December 28, 2020, the "National Basic Medical Insurance, Work Injury Insurance and Maternity Insurance Drug Catalog (2020)" was announced. In this adjustment, great importance is attached to the protection of drugs related to the treatment of new coronary pneumonia, and drugs such as ribavirin injection and arbidol granules have been added to the catalog.


The drugs listed in the latest version of the national new coronary pneumonia diagnosis and treatment plan have all been included in the national medical insurance. Catalogue, with practical actions to help prevent and control the epidemic.

 

Name Confirmation 

At a press conference held on the afternoon of February 8, 2020, the spokesperson of the National Health Commission stated that the new coronavirus-infected pneumonia was temporarily named Novel coronavirus pneumonia (Novel coronavirus pneumonia), referred to as New Coronary Pneumonia (NCP).


The official name of the new coronavirus was announced by the WHO on Twitter

The Director-General of the World Health Organization Tan Desai announced on February 11, 2020 that the new type of coronavirus-infected pneumonia will be named "COVID-19" (Corona Virus Disease 2019), and the Chinese translation is "Covid-19".

The name is interpreted as: CO stands for Corona, VI stands for Virus, D stands for Disease, 19 is due to the outbreak of the disease in 2019. At the same time, the International Virus Classification Committee declared that the new type of coronavirus was named "SARS-CoV-2" (Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2); and that this virus was a sister virus of SARS coronavirus.

 

On February 22, 2020, the official website of the National Health Commission issued a notice, deciding to revise the English name of "new coronavirus pneumonia" to "COVID-19", which is consistent with the name of the World Health Organization, and the Chinese name remains unchanged.

 

Control Type 

In February 2020, the National Health Commission announced on No. 1 that pneumonia caused by the new coronavirus will be included in the Class B infectious diseases specified in the "Law of the People's Republic of China on the Prevention and Control of Infectious Diseases", and measures to prevent and control Class A infectious diseases will be taken.

 

Expert Opinion

On February 10, 2020, Zhang Dingyu, then deputy secretary of the Party Committee and Dean of Wuhan Jinyintan Hospital, introduced that new coronary pneumonia is actually a self-limiting disease. The vast majority of patients, including severe and critically ill patients, can be discharged smoothly after various oxygen therapy, symptomatic treatment and immunomodulatory treatments.

Internationality

Cumulative confirmed cases of new coronavirus pneumonia

On March 25, 2020, WTO Director-General Azevedo said that the epidemic will have a huge impact on the global economy. 

He said: “Recent forecasts show that there will be an economic downturn and mass unemployment (globally), which will be more serious than the financial crisis twelve years ago.” Affected by the new crown pneumonia epidemic, the economies of many countries have already experienced a decline.


Restrictive measures introduced to slow the spread of the epidemic have hit the physical industry hard, and a large number of employees are facing unemployment. The Director-General of the WTO called on all countries to maintain open trade and jointly fight the epidemic.

 

According to real-time statistics released by worldometer, which has been tracking the global new crown pneumonia epidemic data, as of 7:00 on January 26, 2021, Beijing time, the cumulative number of confirmed cases of new crown pneumonia worldwide has exceeded 100 million, reaching 100,203,700, and the cumulative number of deaths has exceeded 214.

10,000 cases, reaching 2147411 cases. However, according to the latest statistics of the new crown epidemic released by Johns Hopkins University in the United States, the cumulative number of confirmed cases in the world has not reached 100 million, 995,87084, and 2,136,559 deaths.

 

On May 12, 2021, the World Health Organization's independent team on COVID-19 pandemic preparedness and response released its latest report. The report shows that it is estimated that by the end of 2021, the new crown epidemic will cause a loss of 10 trillion US dollars to the world. In 2020, at least 17,000 medical workers worldwide will die from the new crown.

 

Virus Research Difference study

On March 3, 2020, a research paper on "Preprints with The Lancet" was published on the preprint server and the early research platform SSRN. The Wuhan University People’s Hospital team analyzed the spread of the new coronavirus among women for the first time The particularity that may exist in.

 

Coronavirus Rendering

Studies have shown for the first time that women show different characteristics from men in the spread of COVID-19. Women not only have relatively mild symptoms, but also have a longer incubation period than men. This may be because women are born with stronger antiviral properties than men. Immunity.


During the screening process, no matter whether the women have symptoms or not, as long as the contact history is clear, they should be tested for nucleic acid, and the isolation period for women under medical observation should also exceed 14 days.

 

The study found

In March 2020, the latest research by Professor Tong Shilu from the National Children’s Medical Center (Shanghai) and Shanghai Children’s Medical Center affiliated to Shanghai Jiaotong University School of Medicine found that children of all ages are sensitive to COVID-19, and there is no obvious Gender differences.

 

On March 30, 2021, the China-WHO Joint Research Report on the Traceability of the New Coronavirus was released in Geneva. According to the report, many early cases in Wuhan were related to the South China Seafood Market, but there were also cases related to other markets. This showed that the South China Seafood Market was not the original source of the new crown virus, and it is not yet clear how the virus spread to the South China market.

 

Based on the existing scientific evidence and findings, the joint expert team conducted a qualitative risk assessment on the possibility of the introduction of the new coronavirus into the four human transmission routes, and used "very unlikely", "impossible", "probable", "more likely" and "very likely". 5 levels of evaluation.

 

The report believes that the new coronavirus is "probably to more likely" to be transmitted directly from the original animal host, "more likely to very likely" to be introduced into humans via an intermediate host, "probably" to be transmitted to humans through cold chain food, and "very unlikely" to be transmitted to humans through laboratory events.

 

In order to detect and confirm early cases of COVID-19, the Epidemiology Working Group evaluated the surveillance data on the incidence of respiratory diseases in Wuhan and surrounding areas at the end of 2019. In all these studies, there is no evidence that the incidence of respiratory diseases in the months before the outbreak of the new crown is affected by the new crown virus.

 

The Molecular Traceability Working Group analyzed the genome data of viruses collected from animals. Evidence has shown that the coronavirus that is closest to the new coronavirus is present in bats and pangolins, indicating that these two mammals may be the host of the new coronavirus, but the similarity of the virus is not enough to make it the direct ancestor of the new coronavirus.


In addition, animals such as mink and cats are highly susceptible to the new coronavirus, indicating that there may be other animals as potential hosts.

 

The Animal and Environment Working Group did not find the presence of the new coronavirus in the sampling and testing of wild animals in China. 

The Animal and Environment Working Group analyzed the coronaviruses that are related to the new coronavirus found in animals such as chrysanthemum bats and pangolins. 

In more than 80,000 samples of wild animals, livestock and poultry collected from 31 provinces, regions and cities in China before and after the outbreak, no positive results of antibodies or nucleic acids to the new coronavirus were detected.

 

On June 15, 2021, the Voice of America radio website reported that according to a new study by the U.S. government, the new coronavirus already existed in the U.S. in December 2019, a few weeks before health officials first detected the infection.


A team including researchers from the National Institutes of Health (NIH) conducted a study that analyzed 24,000 blood samples. Their findings show that some Americans were infected with the new crown virus as early as mid-December 2019, a few weeks before the world recognized the outbreak of a new deadly virus in the Chinese city of Wuhan.

 

On July 14, 2021, the international authoritative scientific journal "Nature" published a study stating that scientists have discovered a kind of "super antibody" that can not only fight against a variety of new coronavirus variants, but also against other closely related strains. Related to the coronavirus, this new discovery may help develop a wider range of vaccines and treatments.

 

According to a paper published in the journal Nature, the main author of the study is the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center (Fred Hutchinson Cancer) in Seattle, USA. The study found that one of the neutralizing antibodies named "S2H97" can target and attach to the viral receptor binding domains listed in all experiments.


Starr said, "It is called the coolest antibody ". The team's further research on "S2H97" showed that it can find a previously invisible and well-hidden area on the virus binding domain, and only when it binds to human cell receptors will it eject from the binding domain, and then neutralize it. 

It functions to prevent the spread of the virus, which is why this "super antibody" S2H97 can widely fight the new coronary pneumonia and SARS and other viruses under the B-coronavirus branch B.

 

Mourning Activity

In order to express the deep condolences of the people of all ethnic groups across the country for the sacrifice of martyrs and compatriots who died in the fight against the new crown pneumonia epidemic, the State Council decided to hold a national mourning event on April 4, 2020.


During this period, the national and foreign embassies and consulates lowered their flags to mourn, and public entertainment activities were suspended throughout the country.


Starting at 10 o'clock on April 4, people across the country observed a three-minute silence. Cars, trains, and ships sounded their horns, and air defense sirens sounded.

 

America

On June 14, 2021, U.S. congressmen mourned the death of approximately 600,000 U.S. COVID-19 patients outside the Capitol in Washington.

 

List of Coronavirus Experts 

On September 3, 2020, the co-chair of the WHO Expert Group on Response and Evaluation of the New Coronary Pneumonia Epidemic announced the list of members of the expert group at a briefing by member states. 

Zhong Nanshan, academician of the Chinese Academy of Engineering and director of the Guangzhou Institute of Respiratory Diseases, was selected.
