Postponed, Zhang Jianzong materials will be required to respond to the incident.

The outbreak of unknown pneumonia in Wuhan has so far been confirmed in at least 218 cases. Zhong Nanshan, a high-level expert group leader of the National Health and Medical Commission and a SARS expert, said in an interview with CCTV News that two patients in Guangdong had not been to Wuhan, but a family member had contracted the disease after going to Wuhan. Therefore, the virus "definitely passed on to others." He also pointed out that 14 medical personnel were infected, and that it was "more likely" to be transmitted to humans through wildlife, and he urged not to go to Wuhan without special circumstances.

Guangdong, the closest to Hong Kong, has accumulated 14 confirmed cases so far, of which Shenzhen accounted for 9 cases. He Bailiang, director of the Center for Infectious and Infectious Diseases of the University of Hong Kong, pointed out that Shenzhen and Hong Kong have frequent exchanges and believe that there is a high chance that cases will be introduced to Hong Kong in the future. .
