You have to work from home. These areas in Guangzhou: Stop all activities that are not necessary for daily life

In recent days, confirmed cases have appeared in some provinces and cities in China, among which the epidemic situation in Guangzhou and Shenzhen has attracted much attention.

Yesterday, Guangdong Province added 2 local confirmed cases and 8 local asymptomatic infections. This morning, Guangzhou issued the latest epidemic prevention requirements, requiring all people in some areas to stay at home and stop all activities that are not necessary for daily life. Except for one person per household per day who is allowed to go out to buy daily necessities, other people are not allowed to go out. Some cross-border sellers have to work from home.

At 10 a.m., a press conference on epidemic prevention and control in Guangzhou was held to report the latest news on epidemic prevention and control, including the guarantee of daily necessities in the prevention and control area, the suspension of express delivery collection , and the suspension of bus routes.

Asymptomatic infections also appeared in Shenzhen. Starting from June 1, online appointments are required for COVID-19 vaccines in Shenzhen. Affected by the epidemic, Yantian Port once again issued a notice of limited gate operations, causing freight forwarders to wail.

The latest situation of the epidemic in Guangzhou

According to CCTV news, from 0:00 to 24:00 on May 28, Guangdong Province reported 2 new local confirmed cases, 1 of which was confirmed as an asymptomatic infection in Guangzhou, and 1 in Foshan. There were 8 new local asymptomatic infections, 5 in Guangzhou, 1 in Shenzhen, and 2 in Foshan.

Experts believe that the virus in this epidemic spreads very quickly and has strong transmission power. This puts extremely high demands on prevention and control work - in this race against the virus, we must run a little further and faster than before to block the virus transmission route and cut off the infection chain in time, otherwise, more local infections are likely to appear in a short period of time.

In order to quickly and effectively block the spread of the epidemic, the Guangzhou Prevention and Control Command has urgently implemented graded and classified prevention and control measures.
