At 0-24 o’clock on April 7, CCTV news showed that there were 1,540 new local confirmed cases of new coronary pneumonia, and 22,561 new local asymptomatic infections.
Many friends began to worry about what to bring if they were suddenly notified to go to centralized isolation. In case of long-term home isolation, what should I prepare to ensure that the basic life of myself and my family will not be affected, and will not fall into helplessness and embarrassment?
Don’t panic, we have compiled 2 material preparation lists for different emergency levels according to the two scenarios of centralized isolation and home isolation.
At the end of the article, there are also fast food and vegetable preservation methods that are worth stocking up for everyone to collect and be prepared for.

What to prepare
fangcang shelter hospitals are used for the isolation of mild or asymptomatic infected people. They are a bit like large container dormitories, with basic living facilities and necessary medical treatment conditions.

How to effectively stockpile supplies
If you’ve been told to self-isolate for 7-14 days or more, but you still have time to prepare, focus on: how to remain relatively normal in the absence of outside help life consumption.
In a hurry, you may not know where to buy, what to buy, and how much?
We have organized a stocking guide by category.Some can be purchased online by express delivery. If it is not delivered, quickly switch to the nearby supermarket to find out. The specific hoarding volume also gives some reference, you can flexibly adjust according to your actual situation and family population.
One more thing to keep in mind before stocking up – electricity and gas bills!
In some old-fashioned communities, you have to go to the site to recharge the gas, and make up the gas in advance, otherwise the fire will not even be turned on.
Food class
When it comes to food, let’s remember one big rule: Eat foods that are fresh but not easy to preserve before consuming foods that can be stored for a long time.
must-haves:
Main food (noodles, rice, flour): It is very easy to store, but it is recommended to buy vacuum-packed or plastic-sealed, otherwise there may be bugs. Adults eat about 300 grams of staple food every day, and a bag of rice is usually 10 kilograms, which is enough for a month.
Frozen meat: Adults should eat 120 grams of meat per day. Cut the fresh meat you buy into small pieces and freeze them. it is good. In addition to pork, you can also consider steak, frozen shrimp, chicken breast, etc., but try to buy as few beef rolls and mutton rolls as possible.

Eggs: Eggs have a shelf life of 40-60 days under refrigeration. Prepare according to the population of the family, and ensure at least 1 egg per person per day.
Normal temperature milk or milk powder: The consumption of milk is 300ml per day. If you are worried about taking up space, you can also choose a more storable milk if you store room temperature milk by box. Milk powder, or freeze-dried cheese.
Edible oil: It will be used for every meal. The daily intake of edible oil for adults is about 25-50 grams, and a family of three should stock up on two buckets5 About a liter of cooking oil is more than enough for a month. If you’re cooking in a nonstick or air fryer, you’ll use less oil.
Multigrain beans (millet, brown rice, mung bean, red bean): Storage-stable and can also be used as a staple food, and can also provide vitamins and dietary fiber that are missing in rice noodles. However, some netizens said that the purchased mung beans and soybeans are not ideal for bean sprouts, and don’t expect them to be turned into vegetables too much.
Shelf-stable fresh vegetables:We’ve put together a list of vegetables for everyone to stock up on
Frozen vegetables: There are shepherd’s purse, broccoli, spinach, asparagus…you can eat them if you can’t eat fresh vegetables, they can be stored for several months or longer, But the nutrient loss is small. Frozen vegetables are generally clean vegetables, do not need to be washed and cut, and are convenient to use.
Basic seasonings and compound seasonings: Don’t underestimate the power of any one seasoning on a day of cooking three meals a day: salt, vinegar, sugar , oil, onion, ginger, garlic, chili pepper.
In addition, you can also buy some compound seasonings, such as hot pot base, thick soup treasure, tom yum soup, curry, chicken, etc. After being quarantined for a long time, you may be tempted to shabu-shabu.
Vitamin tablets: If you can’t eat fresh vegetables and fruits for a long time, you can also top it with vitamin C tablets or multivitamin tablets.
Very durable, there is room for more storage
Frozen foods: Dumplings, steamed buns, finger pancakes, scallion pancakes…they are very shelf-stable, but the packaging takes up a lot of space.
Be sure to have an idea of the size of the freezer compartment in your refrigerator! The freezer compartment of a common single/double door refrigerator is 50/100 liters, which should be able to hold 15 to 30 boxes of quick-frozen dumplings, but don’t forget that you have other frozen products.
Dried food/dehydrated vegetable packs: Fungus, shiitake, yuba, daylily, kelp, etc., can be stored in a dry room temperature, soaking time Control it for 4 to 6 hours, otherwise it is easy to breed harmful microorganisms.
There are also bags of dehydrated vegetables, which are very useful for cooking noodles and soups.

Processed meat products: Sausages, luncheon meat, sausages, bacon, etc. are well stored, and although not healthy foods, it is not a problem to eat them occasionally.
Convenient and instant food:Instant noodles, snail powder, hot and sour powder, self-healing pot, etc., they are durable and do not need to be put in the refrigerator. Occasionally change the taste, you can add more purchase. But it is best to store in bags, because barrels take up too much space, and it is easy to accumulate too much garbage.
Instant cereals: Instant cereals, oat bran, etc., can be eaten for breakfast, and a large bag of flushed milk can last a long time.
Drinking water: If you are very concerned about water quality and scale, you can refer to this amount: a healthy adult should drink 1.5 liters of water a day, a bucket of 4.5 liters Filled with water for about 3 days. If the quarantine time is 14 days, prepare at least about 2 boxes (4 barrels per box).
Canned and compressed biscuits:Canned food is sterilized and then sealed in a can, sealed off from air, without the use of preservatives, don’t worry Security Question.
In terms of taste, tomato, tempeh, dace, luncheon meat, tuna, and braised pork are all good, and canned yellow peach is the best choice to satisfy your cravings when fresh fruit is not available. These will be your last line of defense when you run out of ammunition.
