A COVID-19 Outbreak - Nangong City, Hebei Province, China, January 2021.

Project description:What is known about this topic?Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is widespread globally. In China, COVID-19 has been well controlled and has appeared only in importation-related cases. Local epidemics occur sporadically in China and have been contained relatively quickly.What is added by this report?Epidemiological investigation with genome sequence traceability analysis showed that the first case of COVID-19 in Nangong City acquired infection from a confirmed case from Shijiazhuang City; infection subsequently led to 76 local cases. All cases were associated with the index case, and most were located in Fenggong Street and did not spread outside of Nangong City. The main routes of transmission were family clusters, intra-unit transmission, and nosocomial transmission.What are the implications for public health practice?This study highlights new techniques for rapidly tracing cases and identifying COVID-19 transmission chains. The different epidemiological characteristics in Nangong City, from the earliest stages of the outbreak, suggest that allocation of health sources for prevention and treatment were reasonable. Preventing transmission within medical institutions and isolation facilities and strengthening management in the community should be priorities for COVID-19 control during a city lockdown.

A case series describing the epidemiology and clinical characteristics of COVID-19 infection in Jilin Province.

Project description:Since its outbreak in Wuhan, Hubei Province China, 2019-coronavirus infected disease (COVID-19) had been widely spread all over the world, the control of which calls for a better understanding of its epidemiology and clinical characteristics. We included 12 confirmed cases of COVID-19 in First Affiliated Hospital of Jilin University from 23 January 2020 to 11 February 2020, which were retrospectively analyzed for epidemiological, demographic, clinical, laboratory, and radiological features. All the patients were confirmed by nucleic acid detection, the average age of whom was 45.25 years (range, 23-79 years). Most patients had a history of Wuhan traveling or had contact with Wuhan travelers or infected cases. Obvious family cluster was observed. Clinical manifestations included fever (12/12), fatigue (10/12), cough (6/12), sore throat (4/12), headache (3/12), and diarrhea (2/12). Only three out of eight patients had pneumonia manifestation on radiography. Most patients had a normal white blood cell (WBC) count and normal or reduced lymphocyte (LY) count. Pneumonia changes were observed in all the four patients who underwent a chest CT scan. Only one elderly patient developed severe pneumonia, while all the rest were mild disease and had a self-limiting course.

Molecular characterization of the measles virus genotypes in JiLin Province, China.

Project description:Measles remains a severe global health threat, and nearly 30 million new cases are reported annually. Although many studies have analyzed measles viruses (MV) at the epidemiologic and phylogenetic levels, no study has yet to integrate these two types of data. To this end, we isolated 16 wild-type MV strains China's Jilin province. The MV genotype H1 was the most prevalent strain. After sequencing the nucleoprotein (N) genes of these strains, a maximum clade credibility tree was constructed by the bayesian Markov Chain Monte Carlo method using 450 MV strains from GenBank with epidemiological information. The MV N gene evolution rate was 1.127E-3. Analysis of the time of the most recent common ancestor (TMRCA) for genotypes A/B/C/G/H revealed that genotypes D and B had the largest and smallest TMRCA (45.86 and 26.63, respectively). The highest level of genetic diversity for the MV N gene occurred around the year 2000. Here in this study, we uncovered the MV genotypes circulating in China's Jilin Province and estimated the epidemiologic and phylogenetic relationship for the six different genotypes of MV.

Prevalence of fish-borne zoonotic trematode infection in Jilin Province, China.

Project description:Fish-borne zoonotic trematodes (FZTs) are the most serious food-borne parasites in Asia and have become a burden to public health and a new challenge in food safety. In Jilin Province, China, the prevalence of FZTs in intermediate and definitive hosts has not been extensively explored. In the present study, we investigated the prevalence of FZTs in Jilin Province, China. From July to November 2020, a total of 132 freshwater snails (the first intermediate host of FZTs), 4122 wild freshwater fishes (the second intermediate host of FZTs) and 143 fecal samples from canines, ducks and swine (the definitive host of FZTs) were collected from the Yitong River basin of Jilin Province. FZT species were identified by morphological observation combined with internal transcribed spacer (ITS) sequence analysis. The prevalence of FZTs was then calculated. The results showed that the prevailing species of FZTs in Jilin Province, China, were Clonorchis sinensis, Metorchis orientalis and Echinochasmus japonicus. The total prevalence of FZTs was 29.74% (1226/4122) in fish, the total infection rates were 2.27% (3/132) in snails, 75.00% (21/28) in canines and 37.18% (29/78) in ducks. The coinfection rates of the two trematodes were 13.39% (552/4122) in fish, 35.71% (10/28) in canines and 7.69% (6/78) in ducks. The coinfection rate of the three flukes was 2.60% (107/4122) in fish. Nine of the 12 fish species examined were infected with FZT metacercariae.

Novel influenza A(H7N2) virus in chickens, Jilin province, China, 2014.

Project description:In February 2014, while investigating the source of a human infection with influenza A(H7N9) virus in northern China, we isolated subtypes H7N2 and H9N2 viruses from chickens on the patient's farm. Sequence analysis revealed that the H7N2 virus is a novel reassortant of H7N9 and H9N2 viruses. Continued surveillance is needed.
