Wu Zunyou: Recently, monkey acne will not be popular in mainland China

On the 19th, Wu Zunyou posted on his personal Weibo (@19 19) stated that although there will be no popularity of monkey acne in mainland China in the near future, the possibility of sporadic cases is still relatively high.

He said that there is no local infection of monkey acne in mainland China. The epidemic is mainly entered by overseas. The "external prevention input" measures for the prevention and control of the new crown have played an important role in preventing monkey acne input.

The World Health Organization divides the risk of global monkey acne outbreaks into three risks: high, medium and low, and the global overall level is medium -risk. Among them, the two areas of Europe and the Americas are high -risk. The area is medium risk, and the Western Pacific region where mainland China is located is a low risk. With the decline of monkey acne outbreaks in the two high -risk areas of the Americas and Europe, it has reduced pressure on foreign prevention input in mainland China.

On the 17th, Wu Zunyou wrote on Weibo that the latent period of monkey acne was 5-21 days, most of which were 6-13 days. The "7+3" isolation measures for the prevention and control of the new crown epidemic can intercept most of the cases entered overseas, but the cases with more than 7 days of the incubation period may flow into the society.

Those who need to be alert to asymptomatic infection

Wu Zunyou pointed out that the source of infection that is most likely to bring monkey acne virus into the territory is those who are infected by monkey acne virus in the latent period (especially more than 7 days), or asymptomatic monkey acne virus infections.

According to media reports, in May this year, a 20 -year -old man from Northern California, because of his lips, hands, and back, he had small blisters and went to the hospital for treatment and suffered from monkey acne.

The patient did not have symptoms of fever, discomfort, weakness, pain, or other typical diseases. He didn't know when he was infected or infected. He said he had not touched anyone with a monkey acne or corresponding symptoms. The doctor found the virus in his throat, but he had no symptoms of respiratory tract; he also had viruses in his rectum, but there was no symptoms of pain or acne rash. After diagnosis, the patient may be an atypical or asymptomatic monkey infection.

Wu Zunyou pointed out that the most likely scene of local monkey acne virus transmission will be similar to the main communication methods of European and American countries. Foreigners or people who come to China in the overseas monkey acne pop area. An asymptomatic infection, people with similar sexual orientation and lifestyle in the territory, have caused the transmission of intimate skin in the transmission of monkey acne; the second scene is to come to China or return home. Asymptomatic infection causes family members in the daily contact of family life.

Wu Zunyou said that at present, there is no community communication in mainland China, and the surface of the object is not contaminated by monkey acne virus. Cultivating and maintaining good hygiene habits will play a positive role in preventing monkey acne. Doing your hand hygiene can prevent digestive tract infectious diseases such as respiratory tract infectious diseases and dysentery such as new crown, and can also prevent monkey acne transmission. Pay attention to the use of public seats to prevent skin infectious diseases and prevent monkey acne.
