In the past year, the COVID-19 epidemic has brought considerable impact to the world. Now the number of cases is rising again, but there is no need to worry too much. The current situation is the "two positive" stage, that is, the stage with strong viral transmission capacity, high infection rate, but relatively low mortality and disease severity. The number of new coronavirus cases in Beijing exceeded the number of influenza cases for two consecutive weeks, causing widespread concern. This news once again draws people's attention to whether the COVID-19 epidemic will strike again. According to the weekly epidemic report issued by the Beijing Municipal Center for Disease Control and Prevention, COVID-19 has exceeded the number of influenza cases for two consecutive weeks starting from the 17th week (April 24-30) of 2023, and returned to the first place in the list of legal infectious diseases. More than 10000 cases of notifiable infectious diseases were reported in Beijing from May 1 to 7.
This news reminds people once again that the COVID-19 epidemic is still very threatening. Although some achievements have been made in the promotion of vaccination and social prevention and control measures, people cannot relax their vigilance and must always keep high alert. Faced with the risk of repeated COVID-19 epidemic, under the leadership of the state and local authorities, departments at all levels are actively taking measures to prevent and control COVID-19. The people also responded positively by wearing masks and washing hands frequently to protect themselves and prevent and control the risk of epidemic.
It is worth noting that although the situation of COVID-19 has improved, we still need to be vigilant. The epidemic situation is changeable. Once new cases of infection appear, we must patiently analyze and deal with them, and take timely and effective measures to control the spread of the epidemic. In order to further strengthen the effectiveness of epidemic prevention and control, all sectors of society also need to actively participate. Enterprises, schools and other organizations shall formulate reasonable epidemic prevention measures to ensure the health and safety of personnel. All individuals should be fully aware of the importance of their own epidemic prevention and control, strictly abide by epidemic prevention regulations, and scientifically and reasonably conduct their daily life and work.
The COVID-19 epidemic repeatedly reminds us to remain vigilant and not relax. Only through the joint efforts of the whole people can we control the epidemic and ensure the health and life safety of the people. Keep the awareness of protection, strengthen personal protection measures, do a good job of self-protection, and believe that everything will be better.
