Just after 8:00 a.m., the sound of car horns outside the window and the shouts of vendors re-entered the ears of construction worker Gu Yuhai. Stepping out of the house, 42-year-old Gu Yuhai saw a familiar scene on the streets of Ping'an District: the breakfast shop opened to welcome customers, the small steaming buns at the door; the people on the road came and went, and the vegetable market at the mouth of the alley was constantly shouting...
On November 4, after half a month of epidemic control, Ping'an District of Haidong City, Qinghai Province, officially "unsealed" and normalized epidemic prevention and control was implemented in the original sealing and control areas, control areas and other areas.
On November 4, after the "unsealing" of Ping'an District in Haidong City, Qinghai Province, road traffic returned to normal.
Ping'an District, Haidong City, Qinghai Province, located in the eastern part of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, is an important gateway to and from Qinghai Province, separated from Lanzhou in Gansu Province by more than 160 kilometers. On October 21, a confirmed case of COVID-19 appeared in Ping'an District.
"1 case tested positive for nucleic acid!" The news of the epidemic made the air in this small city of 127,400 residents instantly "freeze".
On the day of the announcement of the confirmed diagnosis, the Ping'an District of Haidong City combined with the results of the circulation of confirmed patients to delineate the sealing and control area, the control area and the prevention area, with a total area of more than 420 square kilometers, accounting for more than half of the total area of the Safe District.
Under the invasion of the epidemic, most of the safe areas pressed the "pause button". All public transportation such as buses and taxis have been suspended, and supermarkets and restaurants in the streets and alleys have posted notices of "closed for business"...
Gu Yuhai is a construction worker who came from Ningxia last year, and the construction site and residence are in the sealed area. "It's as if everything has stopped." Gu Yuhai said that the food is uniformly distributed by the community, in addition to going out many times to do nucleic acid testing, "the rest of the time is required to 'no one leaves the house'." ”
Residents are asked not to go out in the enclosed area. However, in order to fight the epidemic, many people need to maintain "high-intensity operation" every day.
Dressed in protective clothing and holding a cotton swab, Wei Jing, a nurse at the Second People's Hospital of Haidong City, set up a nucleic acid testing point in a blue tent, began to take samples from 4 p.m. on the 21st and was busy until noon the next day. Under the intense rhythm of more than 20 hours of sleepless sleep, she and 5 colleagues completed 747 nucleic acid test samples.
On October 22, next to the exit of the highway in Ping'an District, Haidong City, Qinghai Province, epidemic prevention and control personnel were on duty.
In the past 14 days, Yang Shengjuan, deputy director of the Vehicle Management Institute of the Traffic Police Detachment of the Haidong City Public Security Bureau, and colleagues have been working in the "nine-to-nine" place every day on duty at the road checkpoint in the control area, checking the itinerary code and nucleic acid testing certificate, and persuading foreign personnel and vehicles to return.
Thousands of medical workers, more than 600 party members and cadres, community workers and volunteers, 79 nucleic acid testing teams, tense and busy figures, appeared in all corners of the city.
"We are in the same boat to fight the epidemic together." Zhang Yan, vice mayor of Haidong City, said that after several rounds of nucleic acid testing, the results were negative, and the community prevention and control has reached 14 days, and there are no new positive personnel. "After comprehensive research and judgment and reporting for approval, from 8 o'clock on November 4, the control of the relevant areas of Ping'an District will be lifted."
On November 4, construction resumed at a construction site in Ping'an District, Haidong City, Qinghai Province.
Epidemic prevention is "unsealed" and safely "returned". The sealing and control cordon disappeared, supermarkets and restaurants opened their doors to welcome guests, riders expressed their way through the streets, and construction machines reappeared roaring... The familiar "fireworks" and "taste of life" are re-dispersed in the streets and alleys.
Gu Yuhai ordered a large steamed bun at the breakfast restaurant, and after eating, he walked into the construction site to start work; Wei Jing went to Xining to support the fight against the epidemic after completing local tasks, and is currently in isolation with colleagues; Yang Shengjuan and colleagues continue to stick to the bayonet, check and register the information of vehicle personnel, "The epidemic has not completely passed, and the daily prevention and control can still not be taken lightly."
