CDC： Asymptomatic infected people will not cause spread.

　　CCTV News:On the afternoon of March 24th, the State Council Joint Prevention and Control Mechanism held a press conference to introduce the situation of epidemic prevention and control and medical treatment in COVID-19, and invited relevant disease control experts and medical experts to answer reporters’ questions. Wu Zunyou, a researcher at China CDC, said that asymptomatic infected people will not cause spread. According to the current management measures in China, all close contacts have been included in isolation observation, and isolation observation is independent observation. Once symptoms appear, they will be transferred to the hospital for diagnosis and treatment, which will not cause social spread.

　　Wu Zunyou pointed out that asymptomatic infected people refer to those who have Covid-19 but have no clinical symptoms. Due to the constant observation of close contacts, some people gradually developed symptoms, and those who developed symptoms were quickly sent to medical institutions for diagnosis and treatment, and these people became confirmed patients, and some people did not develop symptoms until the end of the observation. No matter whether there are symptoms or not, asymptomatic infected people are found among close contacts and are managed.

　　Wu Zunyou said that asymptomatic infected people will not cause spread. According to China’s current management measures, close contacts have been included in isolation observation, and isolation observation is independent. Once symptoms are found, they will be transferred to the hospital for diagnosis and treatment, which will not cause social spread. We should pay close attention to this kind of risk, so we should pay close attention to this problem in prevention and control measures.
