Taiwan Affairs Office of the State Council held a regular press conference on the morning of April 27, and spokesperson Ma Xiaoguang answered reporters' questions.
Taiwan Dongsen TV reporter asked a question, the mainland has taken "dynamic clearance" epidemic prevention measures. Taiwan has recently chosen the model of "coexisting with the virus", which has led to a surge in the number of confirmed cases. How does the spokesperson view Taiwan's current epidemic prevention practices?
Ma Xiaoguang responded to the inquiry that in the past two years since the outbreak of the epidemic, we have always adhered to the concept of "people first, life first", put people's life safety and physical health first, and implemented the general epidemic prevention policy of "dynamic zeroing". The relevant departments explained that "dynamic clearance" is not "absolute clearance". We have effectively and effectively blocked the new crown epidemic and achieved remarkable achievements in fighting the epidemic. We are one of the countries with the lowest infection and mortality rates in the world, and we were the first to achieve a positive economic growth, with an economic growth of 8.1% last year. In the first quarter of this year, the GDP was 27017.8 billion yuan, an increase of 4.8% year-on-year. This fully demonstrates that the mainland's general epidemic prevention policy can coordinate epidemic prevention and control with economic and social development, achieve the goal of precise prevention and control, "dynamic zeroing", and can most effectively protect people's life safety and physical health.
Ma Xiaoguang said that as for the epidemic prevention and control policies on the island, all sectors of the island have their own comments. We have also noticed that the new coronavirus has spread on the island recently and the number of confirmed cases is increasing rapidly. The day before yesterday, there were more than 5,000 new local cases in a single day, and more than 6,000 yesterday. Some public opinion on the island believes that there will be about 4 million to 7 million confirmed cases in Taiwan by the end of the year. According to the so-called new epidemic prevention model of the DPP authorities and the current global average mortality rate of the new crown, you can calculate how many people will lose their lives. This is something that compatriots on both sides of the Taiwan Strait don’t want to see.
