Wu Zunyou, Chief Expert of Epidemiology of China Disease Control: Beijing may consider adjusting response level after downgrading
Tonight (10th), CCTV's "News 1+1" online interview with Wu Zunyou, the chief expert in epidemiology of the Chinese Center for Disease Control, said in an interview with Bai Yansong that Beijing has no new local confirmed cases for 4 consecutive days. When the response level of epidemic prevention and control is adjusted depends on whether there are changes in high-risk areas. At present, there are one high-risk area and 18 medium-risk areas in Beijing. Only after the high-risk areas are downgraded to medium-risk, will the response level be possible. After making adjustments and observing the epidemic situation in the past period, it is estimated that high-risk areas may be adjusted to medium-risk in the next week. After the adjustment, the adjustment of response level may be considered in a short time, which is estimated to be about one week to 10 days.
