According to the report, among the 4 newly confirmed cases, 2 were engaged in decoration work and participated in a tour group for the elderly in the suburbs of Beijing from April 19 to 20.
In this regard, Beijing has strengthened the management of tourism epidemic prevention and control in the travel agency "Beijing People Travel to Beijing".
Starting from April 23, the tour guides, drivers and other employees of Beijing travel agencies that have organized the "Beijing People's Tour Beijing" team tour business within 14 days will have to take an additional nucleic acid test. It is not allowed to engage in the "Beijing People Touring Beijing" group tour service business.
At the same time, Beijing unified the decoration and decoration practitioners into the community prevention and control management, and included the normalized nucleic acid detection and screening of key populations in the community of residence.
Before entering the construction site, decoration personnel should report to the community where the construction site is located as soon as possible, and present the nucleic acid certificate and health code.
Among the 4 newly confirmed cases, 1 was a student from a middle school in Chaoyang District, Beijing, and the 9 newly tested positive people were all his classmates.
The schools involved will be closed for 7 days from today and will be temporarily controlled.
Chaoyang District will conduct nucleic acid tests on all teachers, students, employees and the environment of the school. High-risk personnel will be transported in a centralized manner, and others will be quarantined at home.
The school has launched online courses to ensure that all students are suspended from school without interruption.
The school will determine the time to resume classes based on the nucleic acid test results, and students must hold a 48-hour nucleic acid negative certificate when classes are resumed.
Pang Xinghuo said that at present, the epidemic prevention and control situation in Beijing is severe and complicated. We must continue to adhere to the general policy of "dynamic clearing", quickly carry out the investigation of risk personnel and items, and block the risk of epidemic transmission as soon as possible.
Xu Hejian, a spokesman for the Beijing Municipal Government, pointed out that around the May 1st holiday, the mobility of people increased, which was a big test for epidemic prevention and control in the capital, and it was also a big test for every citizen of the capital.
Schools, construction sites, decoration practitioners and other key industries and key personnel must do a good job in epidemic prevention and investigation.
Strictly prevent the epidemic risk of "self-driving tour" and "senior group".
Citizens should consciously fulfill their responsibilities for epidemic prevention to ensure the safety of the capital and personal safety.
