Among the new cases in Guangdong are both Delta virus and Omicron virus. Nationally, it is a national battle against delta virus and Aumicro virus at the same time.

From a nationwide perspective, the epidemic situation in Inner Mongolia is relatively severe. On February 17, Shi Taifeng, secretary of the regional party committee and director of the Standing Committee of the National People's Congress, pointed out during the investigation and supervision of the epidemic prevention and control work in Hohhot That the outbreak of the epidemic in Hohhot was sudden, fierce and complicated, and now the top priority is to adhere to the speed and strictness, resolutely control hidden risks, cut off the chain of transmission, and cannot delay for a moment, and cannot relax at all.
Wang Hufeng, director of the Medical Reform Research Center of Chinese Min University and researcher of the National Development Institute of Chinese Min University, said in an interview with the Health Times reporter that since the new crown epidemic, we have explored and summarized a set of prevention and control measures to deal with the epidemic, including rapid screening, accurate prevention and control measures.
Wang Hufeng introduced that according to past experience, if the early response to the epidemic is agile and the measures are appropriate, the epidemic can be effectively controlled in one month, and it will take about a month and a half to completely end, basically a wave of local epidemics is such a cycle. The external anti-input and internal anti-rebound pressure is still very large. The awareness of epidemic prevention and control must not be relaxed, and masks still need to be worn for a period of time. Epidemic prevention requires multiple protective measures, and wearing masks, washing hands frequently, vaccinate, and avoiding gatherings are all essential.
