Nanshan Zhong said that the new crown virus should continue to exist this winter and next spring, and may continue to develop, especially in local areas where outbreaks may occur. Therefore, joint prevention and control at the community level is very important. The community should conduct comprehensive nucleic acid testing, follow up close contacts, and isolate asymptomatic infections with positive nucleic acid. "These methods are effective."

He particularly emphasized that the management of asymptomatic infections is very important. Although asymptomatic infected persons have no obvious symptoms, the first 5 days and 5 days after the symptoms appear are very contagious, and the upper respiratory tract viral load is very high, which requires attention.
