Determining what quarantine period and detection strategy are more effective and sustainable remains a challenge for further prevention and social stability.
From October 2020 to December 2021, 290,547 inbound overseas travelers were subject to government quarantine in Xiamen, China. The detection rate of COVID-19 during different quarantine periods using dual or single nucleic acid testing reagents.
The COVID-19 positive rate was 1.79% (519/290,547). The detection rates during the 7-day, 14-day and 14+7-day quarantine periods using the dual reagents were 78.4%, 91.7%, and 100%, respectively. The detection rate of the 7-day, 14-day and 14+7-day quarantine periods were 73.99%, 86.51%, and 94.22%, respectively, using the Liferiver reagent and 72.25%, 84.59%, and 91.91%, respectively, using the Daan reagent. Based on the 14+7 day strategy, dual nucleic acid testing reagent strategy detected all imported cases, but 30 cases (5.78%) were not detected via Liferiver reagent and 42 (8.09%) cases not detected via Daan reagent.
A 14+7-day quarantine period and dual nucleic acid testing reagent strategy are effective screening methods for COVID-19 among inbound overseas travelers. The superior detection rate of these strategies reduce the risk of secondary transmission of the SARS-CoV-2 virus.
确定哪种隔离期和检测策略更有效且可持续,仍然是进一步预防和社会稳定的挑战。
2020 年 10 月至 2021 年 12 月,在中国厦门,对 290547 名入境海外旅行者实施政府隔离。使用双或单核酸检测试剂检测不同隔离期的 COVID-19 检出率。
COVID-19 阳性率为 1.79%(519/290547)。使用双试剂进行 7 天、14 天和 14+7 天隔离期的检测率分别为 78.4%、91.7%和 100%。使用 Liferiver 试剂进行 7 天、14 天和 14+7 天隔离期的检测率分别为 73.99%、86.51%和 94.22%,使用 Daan 试剂的检测率分别为 72.25%、84.59%和 91.91%。基于 14+7 天策略,双核酸检测试剂策略检测到了所有输入性病例,但 Liferiver 试剂未检测到 30 例(5.78%),Daan 试剂未检测到 42 例(8.09%)。
14+7 天隔离期和双核酸检测试剂策略是对入境海外旅行者进行 COVID-19 筛查的有效方法。这些策略的高检出率降低了 SARS-CoV-2 病毒二次传播的风险。
