【冠状病毒19】宿舍冠毒检测已完成 逾两万客工进行隔离
我国跨部门防疫工作小组在8月7日声称，完成国内所有客工宿舍的冠状病毒19检测。不过，目前仍有2万3500名客工在进行隔离。
据卫生部昨晚（8月9日）所发出的文告指出，昨日新增冠病19病例多达175起，其中，宿舍的客工们就占了171起。
当局指出，跨政府部门防疫工作小组的检测工作虽然已经完成，但是冠毒检测结果仍未出炉。
进行隔离的客工们，被安置在指定的隔离设施内。他们将在隔离期结束时再次接受检测，因此卫生部预计冠毒病例将会持续居高，并在数日后才逐渐减少。
除了客工宿舍，昨日新增病例中包括了三起入境病例和一起社区病例，将我国的冠毒病例累积至5万5104起。
卫生部指出，在新增病例中，有98巴仙的病例已查出其感染群，其余的都在等待病例跟踪结果。
