For most "outsiders", this policy adjustment in Shijiazhuang is worthy of recognition and expectation. They hope that Shijiazhuang, as an experimental field, can explore a way to return to normal life. For the local people in Shijiazhuang, this news has become a source of "panic". Some people think that it is too risky for Shijiazhuang to "let go" when 500+ new infected people are added. Some people dare not go out even if they are unsealed. Some people wonder if this is an emergency measure for the government to have no money.
In fact, the Shijiazhuang government's attempt is not unreasonable. First of all, we need to recognize the fact of policy change. According to the news that "Shijiazhuang released the official WeChat account", Shijiazhuang did not "lie flat" or lift the blockade, but implemented the national policy of "20 measures to further optimize epidemic prevention and control" issued by the state a few days ago. For example, the "no nucleic acid" reflected by netizens is actually that Shijiazhuang does not require all employees to carry out compulsory nucleic acid testing, and only carries out nucleic acid testing for key people and key positions. This measure is based on the "new 20 regulations".
The panic and anxiety of Shijiazhuang people are also understandable, and the implementation of the new policy needs to give citizens time to adapt. Many people on the Internet disapprove of Shijiazhuang people's panic and even criticize them as "giant babies who are unwilling to take responsibility for their health". In my opinion, netizens should give Shijiazhuang people more tolerance. On the one hand, Shijiazhuang has experienced repeated epidemic shocks and closures in the past period of time. Just after more than 500 positive cases were reported, they suddenly engaged in "normalization prevention and control", but anxiety and panic caused great harm, and even led to many excessive behaviors, such as grabbing medical resources and conflicts with epidemic prevention personnel.
To eliminate these fears, the government and relevant departments need to increase publicity, broaden communication channels with the public, improve people's correct understanding of the harm of the epidemic and overcome excessive tension and anxiety. At the same time, the policy needs to strengthen humanistic care and be implemented accurately and effectively. For example, according to the news learned by the reporter, Shijiazhuang still needs to check the nucleic acid certificate when entering some shopping malls and schools, which has added a lot of difficulties to residents under the premise of completely canceling nucleic acid.
The changes in Shijiazhuang's measures have caught netizens across the country off guard. A reporter called the official of Shijiazhuang, and the staff said that the city's free nucleic acid testing outlets will be closed from today. So it seems that those who need to be inspected need to pay. At the same time, we can see that Shijiazhuang officials are also emphasizing that Shijiazhuang's adjustment measures are by no means comprehensive opening up, nor are they "lying flat" and letting go, but concrete actions to further optimize, adjust and implement the "20" measures. Further improve the scientific and accurate prevention and control work, firmly control and manage, and let go.
I estimate that Shijiazhuang is under great pressure from top to bottom, from grassroots to ordinary people. It must implement policies and take preventive measures, and it must face different public opinions. We outsiders who are temporarily out of the province may laugh it off as a joke today, but our friends in Shijiazhuang have very complicated feelings. These things may all happen to us today, and their today may be our tomorrow.
Whether it is a pilot city or a first-tier city, it may be a milestone to look at it after many years. I don't know whether Shijiazhuang will become a "hero city" in the future, but I would like to call the people of Shijiazhuang a "hero people". No matter what camp, position and goal are the same, that is to fight the epidemic. In the worst case, our enemy should be COVID-19. Not the people inside.
Shijiazhuang has made a pilot project for the whole country. If there is no serious problem in three weeks, other cities will follow up slowly, and then all cities in the country will follow up and let go, so there is no need to do nucleic acid to read the health code. COVID-19 has slowly disappeared from the crowd, just like SARS. In the past three years, everyone just had a dream, woke up and went back to the life without COVID-19, nucleic acid and masks before 20 19. Finally, Shijiazhuang people, thank you for your hard work and pay attention to protect yourself!
