"In the future, it will mainly depend on whether the epidemic situation in Guangzhou will improve. If the population does not flow, some flower shops in the Pearl River Delta will be relatively conservative in purchasing goods." Xu Guihao said.

Previously, Huang Xingyao, deputy director of the Guangzhou Municipal Bureau of Industry and Information Technology, said in response to a reporter's question that Guangzhou will launch a special emergency working mechanism for supply chain protection, organize relevant districts and industrial enterprises to carry out special dispatches for supply chain protection, and "relieve difficulties" for enterprises in a timely manner. ".
At the same time, we will do our best to help companies solve problems such as personnel returning to work, inventory transportation, etc., and break through the "blocking points" and "stuck points" of the enterprise's industrial chain supply chain.
Cancellation of multiple nucleic acid detection points
Citizens rush to buy medicines and "stock up"
According to policy regulations, at present, Guangzhou generally does not carry out nucleic acid testing for all employees according to administrative regions, but carries out nucleic acid testing at specified frequencies for risk positions and key personnel. point.
The reporter saw that many nucleic acid testing points in the central city of Guangzhou have been withdrawn recently.
Take Duobao Street in Liwan District as an example. On December 4, only two convenient sampling points were reserved.
Some citizens are worried that Guangzhou's advocacy of "on-demand testing" will lead to large-scale social transmission?
Tang Xiaoping, Secretary of the Party Committee of Guangzhou Medical University, said in an interview with the media that optimizing and improving the epidemic prevention and control measures does not mean "laying flat", but combining the characteristics of the epidemic situation in different periods to become more scientific and precise. Dong, generally do not carry out full-staff nucleic acid.
"Some of my friends were also infected with the new crown virus and recovered without special treatment. I don't think the general public should panic too much. Even if they are infected, they should deal with it calmly." Tang Xiaoping said.

Starting from December 2, the general outpatients and emergency personnel of all kinds of medical institutions at all levels in Guangzhou and districts can pass with the green code of the health code, and the newly admitted inpatients and their accompanying personnel can be admitted to the hospital with the 24-hour nucleic acid negative certificate.
It is worth noting that starting from December 1, when Guangzhou citizens go to pharmacies to buy medicines, including the purchase of 37 types of medicines in the "Catalogue of Drugs that Need to be Registered and Reported During the Epidemic Period", they will no longer need to check the 48-hour nucleic acid negative certificate.
On that day, retail pharmacies in the city recorded 100,000 sales records of cold and fever medicines in one day, which was 2.5 times that of normal days.
The reporter recently visited many pharmacies in Guangzhou and found that disinfectant alcohol, hand sanitizer, masks, etc. were placed in conspicuous positions.

The staff of Cidetang Pharmacy told the reporter that in the past two days, a certain type of medicine used to treat influenza has been particularly popular, and a case was sold out in two or three days.
To buy antipyretics in this store, you need to scan the code to measure the temperature, show the green code of the health code, and register your ID number and mobile phone number.
During the reporter's interview, people kept coming to ask if the store had N95 masks.
On Enning Road, Liwan District, the reporter saw that a stall that usually sells medical equipment has also begun to sell masks, alcohol and other disinfection products. The selling price of a box of N95 masks has reached more than 200 yuan.
According to the Guangdong Provincial Drug Administration, the distribution of cold medicines by wholesale enterprises in the province to 55,000 retail pharmacies in the province has reached 3.6 million units per day, and the current 180% increase in sales is mainly due to purchases.
It is unscientific to spread related drug stockpiling guidelines on the Internet.
Citizens can buy a small amount of short-term, daily urgently needed spare medicines, and should avoid long-term and large amounts of irrational hoarding of medicines.
Many banks in Guangzhou can defer mortgage repayments
As Guangzhou residents gradually resume their daily lives, mortgages can also be postponed.
It is understood that recently, many mainstream banks such as Industrial and Commercial Bank of China, China Construction Bank, and Bank of China have launched personal housing loan deferred repayment services in Guangzhou. The grace period is as short as 1 month and as long as 18 months.

Judging from the information disclosed by various banks, the people who apply for the deferred repayment of personal mortgages mainly include staff who have participated in the prevention and control of the epidemic; Customers who have temporary difficulties in repayment due to reasons; employees in industries affected by the epidemic, small and micro business owners, individual industrial and commercial households, farmers, etc.
Yan Yuejin, director of the think tank of E-House Research Institute, pointed out that Guangzhou has noticed the problem of breach of contract this time, and within the corresponding period, no penalty interest and compound interest will be calculated, and no credit report overdue records will be reported, which has a very good orientation.
Yan Yuejin suggested that some cities with stricter epidemic control should pay attention to the income status and loan repayment ability of households.
It is necessary to take the initiative to introduce policies and give a buffer period to truly reflect the work of protecting people's livelihood.
