Epidemic prevention and control is not a matter of one day or one night, and personal protection must also be normalized. Experts from the Municipal Center for Disease Control and Prevention remind: We must continue to tighten the string of epidemic prevention and control, and we will not be able to crowded places unless necessary. Don’t gather in groups or gather less, and be the “first person in charge of health”.
Experts from the Municipal Center for Disease Control and Prevention said that the second-generation sequencing of the genome of the first asymptomatic infected person in our city has been completed. After analysis and comparison, the genome sequence belongs to the VOC/Omicron variant strain (BA.5.2.1 evolutionary branch). This variant strain has the characteristics of strong transmission ability, fast speed, and high occultness, which is very easy to cause spreading. Therefore, citizens should actively cooperate with various epidemic prevention and control measures in the streets and villages, not participate in non-essential gatherings, and not take walks together to prevent the risk of cross-infection.
When you really need to go to public places, you should follow the principle of "limited quantity, reservation, and staggered peaks", gather less or not gather together, and when entering farmers' markets, supermarkets and other places to purchase, consciously scan the code to measure the temperature, insist on wearing masks throughout the process, maintain a social distance of one meter, and leave without stopping when buying.
In addition, experts from the Municipal Center for Disease Control and Prevention specifically remind the general public to wash their hands frequently, ventilate frequently, separate meals, use public chopsticks, maintain a social distance of "1 meter line", and develop good hygiene habits such as not spitting anywhere, and using tissues or bends of elbows to cover their mouths and noses when coughing or sneezing. While doing a good job in self-health monitoring, we will cooperate with risk investigation, nucleic acid testing, and other prevention and control measures. If you experience discomfort symptoms such as sore throat, dry cough, fever, fatigue, and loss of smell and taste, you should go to the nearest fever clinic immediately for treatment, wear a mask throughout the journey to avoid taking public transportation.
