Zhong Nanshan: new crown or diamond princess patient transmitted through shower

Recently, academician Zhong Nanshan was invited to introduce the achievements and experience of China's anti epidemic to ers European Respiratory Society through remote video. " For infectious diseases, the key is to stop the spread. " Zhong Nanshan pointed out that asymptomatic patients may be infectious. Zhong Nanshan reminded us that the transmission route of COVID-19 still needs to be further studied to find out whether it was caused by the leakage of shower or vent pipe. For example, on the diamond princess, until February 29, a total of 709 patients (nearly 20% of passengers) were infected with covid-19. The reason may be that it promoted the transmission through pipes or showers.
