Hong Kong’s new coronary pneumonia epidemic rebounded. Hong Kong added 52 confirmed cases yesterday (13th), while local cases accounted for 41, breaking the highest record on a single day. Chief Executive Lin Zheng Yuee led officials to announce a number of epidemic prevention measures in the evening, including mandatory transportation People wear masks, and restaurants are not allowed to dine during the "Six Six to Five", only take-out; the "restriction order" has been tightened to four people, and the fitness center and theaters have been ordered to close for 7 days, effective after midnight tonight.

Zhang Zhujun, director of the Department of Infectious Diseases, Center for Health Protection, Department of Health, said that 48 cases have been diagnosed today, with 40 cases locally, including 24 cases of unknown origin.

[22:06] Yuan Guoyong, Chair Professor of the Department of Microbiology at the University of Hong Kong, visited the Iraqi Hospital and said that the outbreak of the community was under great pressure. Some cases of new pneumonia were admitted to the hospital. It is not necessarily known that the infection is a new coronavirus. He mentioned that a 92-year-old female patient diagnosed can go to the toilet on her own. There may also be viruses on the bedside and bed rails. He also believes that the chance of airborne transmission is not great.

Yuan Guoyong said that if it is unclear whether the condition of the patient, especially the elderly, is a new type of pneumonia, the virus should be tested first, especially in contact with the residents of Ciyun Mountain. He does not rule out more cases.

[22:05] Long Zhenbang, director of infection control at Queen Elizabeth Hospital, said that one more patient was diagnosed with new pneumonia in the same patient in the same medical ward, and there were a total of 3 patients. Some equipment in the ward has been abandoned. At present, patients in the ward will not have shared equipment.

[21:56] The Chief Executive, Lin Zhengyue, went to a nursing home in Ciyun Mountain today (July 14) to inspect the government’s testing of coronavirus diseases for the staff of the elderly homes in 2019.

Lin Zhengyue went to a nursing home in Ciyunshan to listen to the testing agency—Huasheng Diagnostic Center opened by BGI Gene—to explain the arrangements and procedures for collecting pharyngeal swab samples for virus detection for about 80 employees in the institution. Today is the first day that the government and the testing agency will carry out virus testing for the staff of residential care homes for the elderly, disabled homes and nursing homes.

Lin Zhengyue said that the epidemic in Hong Kong began to become severe at the beginning of this month, and local infection cases soared. For the first time, there were confirmed cases in residential care homes for the elderly. The government has introduced a number of measures to curb the epidemic. Among them, the government will conduct virus detection for four types of higher-risk groups, including residential care homes for the elderly, disabled homes and nursing homes, restaurant employees, taxi drivers and property management personnel, to strengthen detection in the community. Hidden patients can achieve "early detection, early isolation, and early treatment" to reduce the risk of virus transmission in the community.

[21:52] An internal email from the Employee Relations Department of the Electrical and Mechanical Services Department disclosed that a colleague from the "Border and Transportation Engineering Department" had a positive reaction to the "2019 Coronavirus Disease" virus and is now waiting for treatment in the hospital.

Based on public health considerations, the department has thoroughly cleaned and disinfected the relevant office locations, main passages and elevators to prevent cross infection.

In the past, many researchers believed that the spike protein (spike) of the new coronavirus SARS-CoV-2 is a very promising antigen, which can help stimulate the body's immune response against the virus. The research team of the University of Hong Kong and the Mainland analyzed and tested the serum of 39 Hong Kong local infection (SARS-CoV-2) patients. The results successfully identified 9 effective immunogenic sites on the patient's viral spike protein, of which 4 All sites are located in the receptor binding region.
