新型冠状病毒迄今已造成中国逾四万人确诊感染,同时疫情也扩散全球各地。 英国昨日(10日)更宣布,新冠疫情已构成“公共卫生的严重和紧迫威胁”(imminent and serious threat),并允许英国政府对人员采取隔离措施。

《每日电讯报》报导,英国卫生与社会保障部(Department for Health and Social Care )表示,英国又有4名病患确诊感染新冠病毒,目前英国确诊病例共8例。

而英国卫生与社会保障大臣指出,“新型冠状病毒的发病率和传播对公共卫生构成严重和紧迫的威胁,而规定中列出的措施被认为是延缓或防止病毒进一步传播的有效手段。 这些新规定只适用于英格兰,它允许政府对人员采取隔离措施,只要公共健康官员认为这些人有向公众传播病毒的风险。”

同时,英国卫生与社会保障部发言人也表示,此一措施无疑将有利于卫生专业人士帮助确保全国人民的安全,亦做好了应对新型冠状病毒的准备。

新添四起病例  与从狮城返英感染者有关

根据《BBC中文网》报道,英国于周一(10日)新添的四起病例,均与从新加坡回英国后确诊的第三个感染者有关。

据报道指出,该名英国男子曾于我国君悦酒店参加国际会议期间感染,在回英国途中,曾在法国一个滑雪营地停留,造成三名英国成人和一名儿童感染。

而英国确诊的第四起病例,相信与该男子有关。 目前,这些感染者都被转送到伦敦的两家医院隔离治疗。

而君悦酒店会议参与者也被列为是我国“可能感染群”之一。

目前,根据中国官方公布的最新数字,截至10日,中国武汉肺炎确诊病例达到万2千708例,死亡1千017例,死亡人数尤以湖北最高,达974例,其中武汉748人。 湖北确诊人数已达3万1千728例。

对此,各国也开始实施限制措施,包括澳大利亚、美国的临时限制令严格禁止所有过去14天曾去过中国的非本国公民(永久居民)及其他少部分入境。

而澳大利亚、新西兰、美国、新加坡等超过25个国家禁止14天内曾到过中国的旅客入境。

各国海关针对中国疫情防控采取的不同的方法还包括暂停签证签发、暂停免签、暂停直飞、入境隔离14天等等 。
