Two weeks ago, Beijing entered into a “wartime emergency mode” to deal with fears of a Corona virus surge. At present, according to health officials, the outbreak of COVID-19 has decreased significantly.
With growing concern about the second wave of Corona infections, Beijing provides an overview of how they deal with the outbreak quickly and in control.
Testing, testing, testing and restrictions.
On June 11, nearly 270 new cases of Corona were transmitted locally in Beijing, prompting the government to re-run tests, travel restrictions and massive contact tracing.
“Beijing will not be the second Wuhan,” senior expert from the Chinese National Health Commission, Zeng Guang, was quoted as saying NBC News.
Nonetheless, China is still being criticized for mismanaging the pandemic, silencing its reporters, and not involving WHO in its investigation into the origins of the virus.
Until the vaccine is discovered, the new Beijing outbreak can provide an example of what a pandemic will look like when the virus returns to areas thought to have been free of COVID-19.
“The situation is still critical, but it is effectively under control,” said Lei Haichao, director of the Beijing City Health Commission.
In Beijing, the test site was added after a new outbreak appeared. Even Corona specimen testing was established in sports centers to football fields. Residents who want to be tested also contact the nearest health center in their area.
Certain groups such as couriers, restaurant employees and health workers are required to undergo tests. For everyone, this Corona examination is highly recommended.
“I feel safer. This is also a guarantee of security for my family and friends,” said a woman in the Xicheng district, Beijing.
