The cluster infection incident in traditional markets in Taiwan has not stopped, and the epidemic situation in Beinong and Huannan markets has continued. As of 2 pm yesterday, the "Epidemic Command Center" announced that the number of confirmed cases in the first fruit and vegetable market of Beinong was 88, the number of confirmed cases in the second fruit and vegetable market was 21, and the number of confirmed cases in the Huannan market increased to 111. The Taipei Municipal Government continued to conduct large-scale PCR screening, and three wholesale markets including Beinong screened a total of 3,610 people on the 3rd. According to the latest news from Taiwan media, there are 9 new people who have positive PCR screening, including 3 in the poultry wholesale market and 6 in the Beinong No. 1 Fruit and Vegetable Market.
Taiwan Army dispatched chemical soldiers this morning to urgently disinfect the market and surrounding areas. The Taipei Municipal Government also stated that according to the scheduling inspection results, the number will be revised and updated.
The epidemic in the traditional market may affect the three-level unblocking deadline in Taiwan. Chen Shizhong, commander of the "Command Center", pointed out yesterday that the primary task in the past two days is to first control the communication chain of Taipei's three major fruit and vegetable markets. Taipei City and Taiwan authorities have established a joint command post and commanded Taipei , Rong Zong 4, Taipei City United Medical and Yadong to expand screening for the three markets. Chen Shizhong also pointed out that when the market cluster screening results are released, the transmission chain will be clearer. In the near future, the booking will be made as soon as possible, and the management of mobile workers such as bundling will be strengthened, and all employees will be inspected again on July 8.
At 2:00 this afternoon, the "Command Center" will be held by Chen Shizhong. Whether the gathering incident in the Huannan market has expanded will inevitably become one of the focus of today's press conference.
In addition, Taipei Mayor Ke Wenzhe html named Hulin Street and Yongchun Market around it on the 42nd, and there was an outbreak of infection. The "Hulin Special Project" was launched today, and PCR screening was conducted in Yongji Primary School, allowing 8 surrounding civilians, Yongchun Market Autonomous Association and Hulin Street Market Autonomous Association to test. It is estimated that 3,300 people are present, and 13 households and 30 people have been confirmed.
Why are there many cases of infection in this block? What are the results of today's screening? It will inevitably become one of the focus of today's press conference. (Lin Jingxian/Editor)
