大纪元获得的哈尔滨市道外区4月10日的《血清抗体特异性检测阳性人员情况统计表》显示，当天哈市道外区疾控中心上报了34名血清抗体检测阳性的境内确诊病例。其中有30人IgM抗体阳性（含弱阳）、IgG阴性，4个IgG抗体阳性（含弱阳）、IgM阴性。

IgM阳性通常代表新近感染，而IgG阳性表示感染时间较长。因此，道外区上报的34名血清抗体阳性病例中，至少有30人是最近才感染的有症状的患者；另外4个IgG阳性则有可能是确诊病患，也有可能是既往感染者。

与此同时，中共官方通报，4月10日，哈尔滨市新增确诊病例1例，现有确诊病例2例，无症状感染者4例。

再根据哈尔滨政府统计数据，哈尔滨市下辖18个区市县，2018年末哈市常住人口1085.8万人，其中，道外区常住人口79万，在全市占比7.3%。

大纪元获得的满洲里海关检测文件揭示出，4月11日，124个入境人员样本（124人）被验出32个阳性，核酸检测阳性率25.8%。

4月9日，67个入境人员样本（67人）被验出23个阳性，核酸检测阳性率34.3%。

而之前的4月8日，113个入境人员样本（111人）被验出10个阳性，核酸检测阳性率9%。

也就是说，短短数天，满洲里口岸对入境人员的核酸检测阳性率翻了数倍。

大纪元获得“内蒙古自治区综合疾病预防控制中心”4月13日的《疫情通报》，披露了鼠疫的严峻形势。

该通报称，“2020年3月15日判定首起疫情以来”，4个盟市10个旗县的21个疫点又发现了动物间鼠疫疫情，这意味着，内蒙古总共12个地级市盟中，已经有三分之一的地区出现了鼠疫。
