Important Notice Regarding the Coronavirus (Jan 28, 2020)
For residents who previously contracted COVID-19 in the past 90 days, the direction from the Ministry of Health is that these residents will not require to be tested for COVID-19 again. This is because:1) a person recovered from COVID-19 has developed immunity the virus. When there are any new COVID-like symptoms, the focus should be on other illness that can cause a similar symptom and not COVID-19;
2) depending on the severity of the past infection, some individuals might still have the virus in their bodies and hence a test could be an “old positive”. Based on the clinical evidences, when a person is infected with COVID-19, as long as there are no further symptoms other than some viral coughs, the individual would be no longer infectious 10 days after the first sign of the COVID-19 symptom. In long-term care, because of the complexity of many elder’s condition and the risk of transmission in a communal living, public health will “clear” a positive resident 20 days after the first sign of the symptom.
曾確診感染新冠病毒的長者,在九十天內,都不需要再次接受新冠病毒測試。這是因為:
1)曾確診的人因為從感染中復原,對新冠病毒獲取了免疫力,因此,當他們再出現任何類似新冠病毒的症狀時,我們應評估可能引起這些症狀的其他疾病,以便迅速找到病根;
2)每個人受新冠病毒感染時的嚴重程度不同,在復原後,有些人的身體中可能仍存有病毒量,因此檢測可能發生「舊陽性」的結果。然而,根據臨床證據顯示,當一個人感染了新冠病毒後,除了輕微咳嗽外,如果沒有其他症狀,該患者在出現首個新冠病毒症狀的第10天後,便不再具有傳染性;但由於長期護理院的長者本身有複雜的病情,加上群居的風險較高,因此公共衛生部門會對長期護理院長者加強預防措施,要待長者出現第一個症狀後的20天,才會解除感染者的隔離。
