After the Mid-Autumn Festival holiday, the number of local confirmed cases exceeded 40,000. Yesterday (13), 46,795 new local cases were added every day, which rose to 46,000 again in 83 days, setting a new high since the BA.5 epidemic. Pediatric emergency physician Wu Changteng wrote on the Facebook fan page of "Doctor Wu Changteng who came to talk about pediatric emergency": "The pediatric emergency site after the Mid-Autumn Festival holiday... can only be said to be busy." He said that after a family roasted meat for 3 days, five people have been diagnosed one after another. He called for the fact that if the family was found to be diagnosed with the family during the Mid-Autumn Festival reunion, even if there were no symptoms, the safest way was to do a quick screen.
Wu Changteng said that in the pediatric emergency room after the Mid-Autumn Festival holiday, "can only be busy" and found that "as everyone expected, after the Mid-Autumn Festival holiday, there were many confirmed patients with the new coronavirus!" Some of them also had fever and diarrhea at the same time. During the consultation, it was found that the confirmed patients "several families were related to barbecue dinners."
Wu Changteng also shared the situation of a mother taking her child to the pediatric emergency department in the morning. The woman said she was diagnosed first yesterday, and then the one-year-old child was soon screened for positive diagnosis early this morning. My mother said: "Because my home is a Tuotian House, I have a yard to barbecue, so I have arranged barbecue activities for three consecutive days during the holidays." She also admitted that everyone was eating and chatting while eating, and of course I didn't wear a mask well. As a result, the family found that members were diagnosed on the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival harvest holiday. Until today, five families have been diagnosed, and two of them have been diagnosed twice.
In addition to the increase in the number of confirmed cases, Wu Changteng also said that there were cases of four family members of the family in the emergency room, and the whole family also developed symptoms one after another on the night of the holiday. The youngest sister had serious symptoms, including "abnormal electrolytes in the blood, abnormal kidney function, high inflammation index, and even visual hallucinations! From time to time, she said that there was something outside the window! This made parents very worried."
Doctor Wu reminds the public that if you find that some relatives and friends who have had dinner together during the Mid-Autumn Festival holiday are diagnosed, even if they have no symptoms, it is recommended to screen them quickly. After all, BA.5 has strong immune escape and transmission power. Even if the vaccine is fully vaccinated, it is still possible to be diagnosed.
