  The epidemic has been delayed and repeated, and Shenzhen's epidemic prevention and control continued to be under pressure.

On February 12 and 13, Shenzhen found confirmed cases of new coronary pneumonia in routine tests for two consecutive days.

  The normalized, long-term, and routine situation of epidemic prevention and control not only tests the sensitivity of public epidemic prevention psychology, but also tests the scientific nature of the behavior paradigm of the general public.

We have noticed a phenomenon worthy of vigilance. During the sensitive and critical period of epidemic prevention and control, when some citizens have physical symptoms such as fever, dry cough, and fatigue, they instinctively regard it as a cold, and are reluctant to go to the hospital for examination and treatment. It is to choose to "carry it hard" or take medicine at home, always thinking that "it will be fine in a few days".

  It is undeniable that most of the symptoms such as fever, dry cough, and fatigue are indeed colds.

However, from the perspective of the sensitivity and thinking of epidemic prevention, the lack of careful and discerning "cold attribution" may have unpredictable risks. hidden dangers that cannot be ignored.

  A few days ago, the Shenzhen Municipal Party Committee Standing Committee meeting and the Municipal New Coronary Pneumonia Prevention and Control Leading Group (Headquarters) meeting proposed for the first time "grasp epidemic prevention and control like safety production", requiring the strengthening of "quartet responsibility", a very important aspect of which is "Individual Responsibility for Self-Protection".

The self-protection responsibility of the general public is the foundation of the epidemic prevention responsibility network, and it is related to the fundamentals of the overall situation of epidemic prevention. Only all citizens have really done a good job in self-health protection, always maintain a clear head and a high sense of responsibility, and in the "people's war" of epidemic prevention and control. "In order to build a strong and safe foundation for the overall situation of Shenzhen's epidemic prevention, everyone is responsible for guarding their "body".

  Everyone earnestly fulfilling their own health protection responsibilities is the greatest contribution to the overall situation of Shenzhen's epidemic prevention and control.

Omicron is ferocious. During the critical period, sensitive period, and critical period of epidemic prevention and control, we appreciate and encourage a calm attitude and a step-by-step pace.

However, we also sincerely remind and appeal to the general public that once symptoms such as fever, dry cough, and fatigue occur, they should go to the hospital for examination, diagnosis and treatment as soon as possible to eliminate hidden risks, so as to reassure themselves and their families, and to make the city where we live more safer. Let the overall situation of Shenzhen's epidemic prevention and control remain rock solid.
