Li Ang, Deputy Head of the Quarantine and Testing Working Group of the Leading Group for the Prevention and Control of the New Coronary Pneumonia Epidemic in Beijing, Deputy Director and Spokesperson of the Beijing Municipal Health Commission, said at a press conference on the prevention and control of the New Coronary Pneumonia epidemic in Beijing on May 21, , the epidemic situation in the capital is in a stalemate. The Omicron variant has the characteristics of fast spread and strong concealment, and it is easy to accelerate the spread of the epidemic with the movement or gathering of people.
In order to effectively reduce the flow of people and block the chain of virus transmission, we have recently implemented home office measures in Fangshan District, Fengtai District, Haidian District and other areas with severe epidemics, which have played a positive role in effectively curbing the spread of the epidemic.
Li Ang introduced that the implementation of home office will bring some inconvenience to the work and life of citizens.
However, the general public understands the general situation, considers the overall situation, consciously fulfills the responsibility for prevention and control, strictly implements the prevention and control requirements of home office, and makes contributions to the prevention and control of the epidemic. I would like to thank citizens and friends for their understanding, support and cooperation.
However, the problems reported by netizens do exist. Individual home office workers travel, gather, and go out to do errands, which increases the risk of virus transmission, increases the difficulty of epidemic prevention and control, and affects the overall situation of epidemic prevention and control.
Li Ang emphasized that working from home focuses on staying at home and aims to reduce mobility.
During the period of working from home, citizens and friends are requested to insist on not moving around unless necessary, not going out unless necessary, not gathering, not visiting, not traveling, and not getting together.
Staying at home is also anti-epidemic. Perseverance is victory. Let us strictly fulfill the requirements of home office for epidemic prevention, be responsible for the health of ourselves and our families, and contribute to epidemic prevention and control.
