China News Service, Beijing, June 23 (Chen Hang) Under the guidance of the capital’s strict management of Beijing’s joint management and defense coordination mechanism, the railway department comprehensively considered the actual needs of Beijing’s nucleic acid testing and the objective needs of low-risk passengers who need to leave Beijing. Part of the passengers who have already purchased a ticket and have difficulties in providing a negative nucleic acid test within 7 days of Beijing boarding will be granted boarding clearance.
Cui Wei, director of the passenger transportation team of the Epidemic Prevention and Control Office of China Railway Beijing Bureau Group Co., Ltd., mentioned the above at the press conference on the 23rd.
In accordance with the relevant policies and measures for strict outbound management under Beijing's second-level emergency response level, "four types of personnel" and those with fever symptoms, those who have entered and exited the new wholesale market since May 30 and had close contact with market staff 1. People in towns and villages in middle and high-risk streets are prohibited from leaving Beijing. In principle, other personnel insist on "not leaving Beijing unless necessary". Those who do need to leave Beijing must hold a negative nucleic acid test certificate within 7 days.
Cui Wei pointed out that the railway department attaches great importance and cooperates with Beijing to do a good job in the prevention and control of epidemic situations. It immediately released information to the public and decided to apply for free tickets for all trains purchased in and out of Beijing before 24 June 16th. Refund procedures, and comprehensively implement ticket purchase restrictions for relevant high-risk groups, strengthen various anti-epidemic measures such as body temperature testing, nucleic acid test certificate inspection, and on-the-go health management of passengers leaving Beijing to block transmission channels to the greatest extent and strictly prevent Beijing epidemic risk Spillover diffusion.
Due to the sudden outbreak of the epidemic situation in the wholesale market of the new development area, the management measures for leaving Beijing are urgently introduced. Beijing nucleic acid testing is given priority to the "due inspection" personnel such as key populations, key regions, and key areas. Passengers are too late to conduct nucleic acid testing, or it is difficult to obtain the test results quickly. At the same time, the Comprehensive Group of the Joint Prevention and Control Mechanism of the State Council "Notice on Doing a Good Job of New Coronary Pneumonia Health Management Service for Departures from Beijing" requires that "the nucleic acid cannot be provided within 7 days before departure. Persons leaving Beijing who have a negative test certificate shall undergo nucleic acid testing immediately after arriving at their destination."
Based on the above factors, the railway department, under the guidance of the capital’s strict management of Beijing’s joint defense and joint control coordination mechanism, comprehensively considered the actual needs of Beijing’s nucleic acid testing in the previous period and the objective needs of low-risk passengers who really need to leave Beijing. Some passengers who have difficulty in providing a negative nucleic acid test certificate within 7 days in Beijing will be allowed to board and leave.
With the rapid improvement of nucleic acid detection capabilities in Beijing, it has become increasingly convenient for the majority of passengers to carry out nucleic acid detection. Starting from strict management of leaving Beijing, the railway department has strictly implemented passenger boarding at all stations in the city from 03:00 on June 23. The pre-nucleic acid test certificate inspection measures discourage passengers from failing to provide a negative nucleic acid test certificate within 7 days.
Cui Wei reminded the majority of passengers that, on the basis of insisting on "not to leave Beijing without being necessary", for those who really need to leave Beijing, please go to the published nucleic acid testing agency for testing in advance, and board the car with a negative test within 7 days, cooperate with the inspection jobs.
