Ou Jiarong pointed out that a total of 3 people in Haoyuan were infected with the virus, and the brief description is as follows:
.
In a preliminary confirmed case, the patient had symptoms on January 15, a 26-year-old man. He consulted a private doctor on January 18 and 22, and was initially confirmed to be positive at a community testing center on January 23, with a CT value of 34.
The patient reported that he had bought hamsters at "i love rabbit" at No. 160 Tung Choi Street in early December, and had been handed over to the Agriculture, Fisheries and Conservation Department for testing today.
The patient lives on the 5th floor.
A colleague of his was also initially diagnosed today. He was doing pyramid selling work together on the street. The colleague developed symptoms on January 19 and had a runny nose. He lives in Lung Lok House, Lower (2) Village, Wong Tai Sin.

The other 2 confirmed cases live in the same Unit E. Among them, the confirmed case (#13400) is a 77-year-old mother-in-law who has no injections herself. She lives in Unit 8E with her two sons and workers. She was tested on January 22. The sample is positive, the CT value is 20 to 22, and he will go to Huangde Park for a walk on weekdays.
.
Another case is (#13382) a 71-year-old man living in Unit 7E who tested positive at the Community Testing Center on January 22, CT28.

Yuan Guoyong pointed out that due to the incident on the 5th, 7th and 8th floors, it is estimated that there will be vertical transmission upwards, and there is no water pouring into the U-shaped air trap for the residents from E to the unit, and even the toilet and kitchen drains are sealed with adhesive tape. It is very difficult to seal it, so it is very easy to be infected by the virus when it is vertically upward.

He has suggested that Room E should be evacuated from top to bottom.
