According to the changes in the epidemic situation, Zaozhuang insisted on the word “fast” as the top priority, quickly organized professional forces to dig and thoroughly investigate the activities of positive infected persons, and made every effort to investigate the close and sub-close contacts, and strive to block the transmission chain as soon as possible. In particular, 1 case of asymptomatic infection in Tengzhou City and other people who landed in Zaozhuang on the K48 train on the K48 train were quickly carried out. Isolation and control measures have been implemented for all the close and sub-close contacts identified so far. Strengthen the management of cross-provincial truck drivers and landing goods, adhere to the principle of “identical inspection, prevention and control of people and vehicles”, and strict closed-loop management of the whole process to minimize the impact on the circulation of goods and the production and life of the masses. The mechanism for guaranteeing the supply of living and medical materials has been launched to fully guarantee the production and distribution of supply-guarantee enterprises. At present, the city’s daily necessities and protective materials have sufficient reserves and stable prices, which can effectively meet the living and epidemic prevention needs of citizens. What is particularly moving is that since the outbreak of the epidemic in Zaozhuang on March 28, the masses of the city have fully carried forward the spirit of “ownership”, actively responded to the call, and fully cooperated with isolation control, home monitoring, nucleic acid testing and other work, and various epidemic prevention and control work. Control measures have been advanced in an orderly manner. Here, I would like to express my heartfelt thanks to everyone for their understanding and praise for the cooperation from all walks of life.

The outbreak is fierce, and the Omicron variant is highly contagious, spreads fast, and has strong concealment characteristics. According to the needs of epidemic prevention and control, Zaozhuang will continue to implement closure and control measures in some areas. It is hoped that the general public in the area will continue to support and cooperate, do a good job in home health monitoring, and consciously avoid going out or visiting. At the same time, please continue to strictly abide by the epidemic prevention and control regulations, do not go out unless necessary, insist on wearing masks, wash hands frequently, ventilate frequently, and do not gather together, and earnestly fulfill their health responsibilities to themselves, their families, and the society. Tomorrow is the Tomb-sweeping Day holiday. I hope that the general public will start from themselves and consciously abide by the requirements of the Municipal Epidemic Prevention and Control Headquarters “Notice on Suspension of On-site Sacrifice During the Tomb-sweeping Festival”, advocate a new trend of civilized sacrifice and sweeping, and have a safe and green Qingming Festival!
