What responsibility will a man in Zhengzhou bear for deliberately spreading the epidemic?

From October 65438 to February 65438, Xuchang police reported that Zhang, the regional director of Zhengzhou Jinyu Clinical Laboratory Center Co., Ltd., violated the provisions of the "Infectious Disease Prevention and Control Law" and carried out behaviors that caused pneumonia or serious transmission risks of the new coronavirus. The public security organs opened a case for investigation on suspicion of criminal offenses and took compulsory measures.

Article 330 of the "Criminal Law" stipulates that anyone who violates the provisions of the Law on the Prevention and Control of Infectious Diseases and commits any of the following circumstances, causing the spread of Class A infectious diseases or posing a serious risk of spread, shall be sentenced to fixed-term imprisonment of not more than three years Imprisonment or criminal detention; if the consequences are particularly serious, he shall be sentenced to fixed-term imprisonment of not less than three years but not more than seven years.

This person’s company has undertaken the nucleic acid testing and screening tasks for nearly one-third of the people in Zhengzhou. As of October 2021, the cumulative testing has exceeded 100,000 times. At present, the cost of nucleic acid testing in cities across the country is about 8 yuan per person. According to this standard, the company’s revenue from 654.38+ million nucleic acid tests is 80 million. And it’s impossible to take all the exams together. Many of them are taken separately and charge more than 400,000 yuan. In this way, the company's revenue from nucleic acid testing alone has reached hundreds of millions of yuan since the epidemic.

Because the police report is relatively simple, most netizens say anything. But most people said that the company received too many nucleic acid testing samples and was severely understaffed. As a result, many samples were issued negative certificates without being tested at all.

If so, then this person, including his company, should be held accountable. Epidemic prevention and control is a major matter, and there is no room for sloppiness. There is responsibility for this chaotic behavior.

After the incident, on the evening of June 65438+October 65438+February, the official Weibo of Jinyu Medical, the company where the man worked, issued a statement saying that the Internet "actively spreads viruses", "lost samples", " "Fake data", "concealing data", etc. are all rumors. After investigation by the company, the above situation does not exist. The company will continue to actively cooperate with the police in investigating the incident and announce the investigation results to the public in a timely manner.

Regardless of the facts, Jinyu Medical’s stock fell miserably. After this incident, it fell directly by 5.79%.

How things will develop next, let’s wait for the results of the police investigation.

However, it seems that the possibility of discussion among netizens is still very high. After all, since the outbreak, cities such as Beijing and Tianjin have reported false reports and deliberately altered nucleic acid test results. However, no such large-scale phenomenon has been found. If this person's company actually acted like this, the law would certainly not be lenient.
