Chinanews, August 3rd, Nanjing Municipal Party Committee Propaganda Department's WeChat public account "Nanjing Release" released on the 3rd "Answers to Related Questions about the Suspended Operation of Certain Metro and Bus Lines on August 3".
Q: Why are some subway bus operations temporarily suspended?
Answer: After the outbreak was discovered at Lukou Airport on July 20, we immediately suspended S1 operation on July 21 and implemented S7 and S9 jump stations. On the 27th, S7 and S9 operations were suspended, adjusted and suspended. More than 200 bus lines avoid high-risk areas such as Lukou Airport.
Judging from the current epidemic situation, most of the new positive cases are still distributed in Jiangning area. The current epidemic prevention and control in Nanjing is at a critical juncture, and there is still a risk of spillage and spread.
The characteristics of "Delta" mutant strains such as fast spreading speed and high viral load are far beyond everyone's existing knowledge of previous viruses, and they can't tolerate the slightest paralysis.
Due to the confined spaces of public transportation such as subways and buses, crowds of people, and high risks of cross-infection, in order to effectively protect the health and safety of citizens, it was decided to suspend the operation of Metro Line 1 and Line 3 in the Jiangning section.
At the same time, the Fangzhou-Jinniu Lake section of the S8 line, which has a greater risk of epidemics in the surrounding areas, will be suspended.
The suspension is only temporary. During this period, the subway company will organize a complete elimination and prepare for a soon restart based on the situation of epidemic control.
Question: How to solve the travel needs of citizens living and working across districts?
Answer: In view of the severe situation of epidemic prevention and control, we advocate that enterprises and institutions in Nanjing actively assume the main responsibility of epidemic prevention, timely adjust production plans, work arrangements, and work methods, create online and remote home office conditions as much as possible, and implement flexible work systems.
For employees who really need to travel across districts and work, all units must earnestly fulfill their responsibilities for ensuring the health and safety of employees, and encourage customized public transport, chartered commuting, etc., to realize fixed-person, fixed-vehicle, and fixed-line commuting.
The Municipal Epidemic Prevention Headquarters has previously called on companies to respond to the epidemic prevention and control requirements in various ways, actively assume social responsibilities, care and care for the work and life of employees; call on citizens to reduce public transportation trips as much as possible, while protecting their own health and safety, and effectively preventing them. Stop the spread of the virus.
Question: What should citizens pay attention to during the epidemic?
Answer: The fight against the "epidemic" has not yet been successful, and the situation of epidemic prevention and control is still grim. It is necessary to do a good job of epidemic prevention without slackness and strictness.
Every one of us citizens has the obligation and responsibility to protect themselves, to travel less and not to leave, and to block the chain of spread of the epidemic.
This is not only responsible for oneself and family, but also responsible for others and society.
If you really need to go out, try to avoid taking public transportation and comply with the epidemic prevention requirements in public places. Only with the concerted efforts of all citizens can the epidemic be controlled more quickly, and finally be overcome, and normal production and living order can be restored.
