    Abstract

    On December 31, 2019, China reported to the World Health Organization (WHO) cases of pneumonia in Wuhan, Hubei Province, China, now designated 2019-nCoV. Mounting cases and deaths pose major public health and governance challenges. China’s imposition of an unprecedented cordon sanitaire (a guarded area preventing anyone from leaving) in Hubei Province has also sparked controversy concerning its implementation and effectiveness. Cases have now spread to 4 continents. We describe the current status of 2019-nCoV, assess the response, and offer proposals for bringing the outbreak under control.

Abstract Background: A recent cluster of pneumonia cases in Wuhan (China) is known to be caused by a novel beta-coronavirus named the 2019 novel coronavirus (2019-nCoV) and can be spread through human-to-human transmission. In this study, we reported the epidemiologic and clinical features of suspected and confirmed cases of imported 2019-nCoV in North Shanghai, China. Methods: Data of 21 patients with laboratory-confirmed 2019-nCoV and 84 patients with suspected 2019-nCoV were analyzed by RT-PCR. The epidemiologic and clinical features as well as clinical outcomes were compared between the confirmed and suspected cases.

    • Correlation Analysis of the Population Emigration Rate in Wuhan and the Trend of Novel Pneumonia in Hubei Province 16 Pages Posted: 13 Feb 2020 Wei Li Shanghai Jiao Tong University (SJTU) - Department of Geriatric Psychiatry Ling Yue Shanghai Jiao Tong University (SJTU) - Department of Geriatric Psychiatry Lin Sun Shanghai Jiao Tong University (SJTU) - Department of Geriatric Psychiatry Shifu Xiao Shanghai Jiao Tong University (SJTU) - Department of Geriatric Psychiatry Abstract Background: The ongoing outbreak of the recently emerged novel coronavirus (2019-nCoV) poses a challenge for China. We speculated that the emigration rate of Wuhan population might have an important impact on the number of confirmed cases and mortality in other areas of Hubei Province. Methods: Based on the official website of health commission of Hubei Province (wjw.hubei.gov.cn), we obtained the trend of pneumonia epidemic with novel coronavirus infection over time in Hubei Province. By analyzing Baidu map migration big data (qianxi.baidu.com),we also got the flow direction of Wuhan population from January 20,2020 to February 7,2020. Results: Since January 20, 2020, the number of confirmed cases, cured cases and dead cases of novel pneumonia in Hubei Province has been increasing. However, after February 4, 2020, the number of cured cases has exceeded the number of dead cases. The case fatality rate gradually increased from January 20 to January 24, decreased on January 25, reached the peak on January 26, then gradually decreased, and finally stabilized at about 2.8. The results of correlation analysis showed that the average emigration rate in Wuhan was positively correlated with the number of confirmed cases (r=0.899, p<0.001) and the number of fatalities(r=0.851, p<0.001). Conclusions: China is still facing a huge challenge of novel coronavirus. However, despite the increasing number of confirmed cases, the current cure rate has exceeded the case fatality rate. There is a positive correlation between the emigration rate of Wuhan population and the number of confirmed cases and the mortality rate in Hubei Province, so we still need to strictly control the outward circulation of Wuhan population.
