Shenzhou International, a major garment processing plant supplying global sports and leisure brands in Ningbo, East China’s Zhejiang Province, was listed as a medium-risk region as workers at the company were confirmed to have contracted the coronavirus.

After seven cases at Shenzhou International were reported on Saturday, three more were detected in Ningbo on Sunday, local health authorities told a press conference.
 

The cases reported were highly localized in the Shenzhou International company, and no additional cases have been detected in other parts of Zhejiang thus far, local health authorities said.
 

On Saturday, health authorities said that the genome sequencing of the first case found in Beilun, Ningbo showed the virus strain is highly similar to the Delta variant found in Vietnam, but different to the evolutionary branch of the Delta variant found in previous cases in Zhejiang, Xi’an, the capital of Northwest China's Shaanxi Province and Xishuangbanna Dai Autonomous Prefecture in Southwest China's Yunnan.
 

Regarding the newly detected cases, the Port of Ningbo-Zhoushan, one of the world's busiest cargo hubs, said it entered a state of emergency and will maintain normal operations in order to ensure the logistics for foreign trade goods and stabilize supply chains.
 

"At present, the productions at every area in the port are stable and vessels arriving at the port operate normally," the port said in a statement.
 

Ningbo, a city about 3,000-4,000 kilometers away from Ho Chi Minh City in Vietnam by air and one of the richest cities in China, saw a coronavirus outbreak at the end of 2021. Local authorities said the new cases were irrelevant to the previous outbreak.

宁波本轮疫情高度集中在同一家公司

1月2日)下午4时,浙江省举行第九十九场新冠肺炎疫情防控工作新闻发布会。出席发布会并回答记者提问的有浙江省卫生健康委副主任孙黎明、宁波市北仑区区委副书记、代区长王程(视频连线)。发布会由浙江省委宣传部副部长、省政府新闻办主任李杲主持。
 

浙江省卫生健康委副主任孙黎明通报浙江省近期发生的新冠肺炎疫情最新情况:
 

2022年1月1日0-24时,浙江省报告新增本土确诊病例7例(均为轻型),均在宁波市北仑区。1月2日0-15时,报告新增本土确诊病例3例,均在宁波市北仑区。累计报告本土确诊病例10例,均在宁波市北仑区。无报告新增本土无症状感染者。
 

全省现已划定中风险区域2个(北仑区新碶街道沿海村、申洲公司三部厂区及宿舍区),无高风险区域。目前,相关涉疫场所均已进行分类管控和环境消毒等工作。
 

根据现有流调溯源信息研判,此次浙江省宁波北仑发生的疫情主要有以下几个特点:
 

经省市疾控部门对首发病例标本基因测序,属德尔塔变异株AY.57进化分枝,可以排除与近期杭甬绍三地疫情的关联性,为一起独立疫情。
 

除首发病例为因其他疾病拟住院发现外,其余病例均为在封控区内主动筛查发现,活动轨迹由当地予以公布。
 

疫情高度集中在宁波北仑区申洲公司,全省其他区域暂未发现阳性感染者。目前溯源工作正在持续进行中,一旦有进一步结果,将及时公布。
