Original title: Return to the hometown under the epidemic: improved equipment, nucleic acid test certificate and return home for the new year
Our reporter (chinatimes.net.cn) Liu Shimeng reports from Beijing
The Beijing train station at noon on January 21 was silent. There were not many passengers waiting to pit in the plaza, and they all consciously kept a safe distance and did not begin to chat with each other. Most of them wore KN95 masks, and some even wore disposable protective clothing, tightly covering the entire body, showing only the forehead and eyes.
On this day, there is still a full week left before the Spring Festival Transportation in 2021. As in previous years, construction work was suspended in early winter in the north, and many migrant workers doing outdoor work They have returned to their hometowns before the Spring Festival trip. What is different from previous years is that in addition to luggage and New Year’s items, which will be taken home this year, there is also a special “customs clearance certificate”, a nucleic acid test certificate.
In the afternoon of January 20, at a press conference on the Joint Prevention and Control Mechanism of the State Council, Wang Bin, the inspector of the CDC of the National Health Commission, stated that those who return home during the Feast of The Primavera must have a core Certificate of negative acid test in 7 days. Subsequently, the National Health Commission issued the “Notice of Printing and Distribution of the Work Plan for the Prevention and Control of the New Epidemic of Coronary Pneumonia in Rural Areas in Winter and Spring” (hereinafter, the “Notice”) to reconfirm this requirement. .
On the Internet, how to define the scope of “returnees” sparked a heated discussion. However, in reality, a China Times reporter discovered in an interview at the Beijing train station that, although the aforementioned “Notice” has not yet taken effect, returning passengers to rural areas or county cities already They have prepared nucleic acid test certificates. .
“Team” update during the Spring Festival
In the square of the Beijing train station, Lao Zhang, a carpenter from Tongliao, Inner Mongolia, is a prominent person. He was wearing a thick black cotton coat, standing in a clearing away from everyone, carrying a suitcase and dragging a plastic bucket filled with various sundries. At first glance, it is easy to notice that he is wearing a double layer mask: the inner layer is a black sponge mask and the outer layer is a KN95 non-woven mask.
Last year, since the outbreak of the epidemic coincided with the Spring Festival, many people embarked on a journey home unprotected, so this year can be considered as the first mark of the “Spring Festival” under the shadow of the epidemic. Many return home like Lao Zhang. The villagers have strengthened their protection. It happened that around the New Year there was an upturn of the epidemic in Hebei, Heilongjiang, Jilin, Beijing and other places, which increased people’s concerns.
A traveler wearing a protective suit told the China Times reporter that his protective suit was bought online for the trip home from the Spring Festival and was inexpensive at tens of dollars. He traveled from Weifang, Shandong to Chengde, Hebei, but since there was no direct train, he could only use various modes of transportation: first take the high-speed train to Beijing South Railway Station and then take the subway from the train station from Beijing South. to the Beijing train station, and take the normal train back to your hometown.
On the shopping platform Tmall, weekly sales of the top four disposable medical protective clothing products exceeded 10,000. In the “Q&A Area” for several of the products, the most worrying questions are “Will you get it removed for nucleic acid when traveling on a train?”, “Do you need to remove it after going through security?”, Etc. in . However, these small problems did not stop people’s enthusiasm for wearing protective clothing. The reporter saw more than 5 passengers wearing protective clothing in one hour of the interview at the Beijing train station.
“The people told me to go back quickly, and I won’t let you go back if I don’t,” Lao Zhang said. Fortunately, your company is willing to bear the cost of nucleic acid testing for employees returning home, so the nucleic acid test was performed early on January 19, even longer than required by the Commission. National Health to publicly request the return home certificate on the 7 A day before.
“I can be sure, they can be sure”
Li Guilan (pseudonym), who does clean-up work at a construction site on East Fourth Ring Road, Chaoyang District, Beijing, is not so lucky. The closing of winter was approaching. She and her co-workers from Jilin packed their luggage and started asking if they could go home. They sent screenshots of their location and health code to village staff and confirmed that they can return to their hometown within seven days of the nucleic acid test.
However, the company is unwilling to bear the cost and can only spend 120 yuan on nucleic acid testing. On January 20, she made a special trip to the Aerospace General Hospital to queue for tests, although there were many people on the scene, she was still ready.
During the time he was queuing, news broke from the press conference that “people returning from Spring Festival must have a negative nucleic acid test certificate within 7 days.” The “Notice” issued later indicated that after returning home, home health monitoring will be implemented for 14 days, during this period there will be no collection or flow, and nucleic acid tests will be performed every 7 days.
For a while, there was a discussion on the Internet about “what is a returnee”: is it between provinces or between cities? What time does it mean to come home during the Spring Festival? Does a business trip during this time count as a return home? Do I have to self-quarantine after I return home?
That evening, the National Health Commission responded urgently to public concerns, stating that returnees referred to in the “Notice” refer to those who have returned to rural areas from elsewhere, and mainly include those who have returned to their places of origin in the provinces and those from cities in the province’s medium and high risk regions. Returnees, imported food workers from the cold chain in the province, the port’s direct contact with imported goods workers, workers in isolation sites, transit vehicles and other key groups. In terms of time, it will be implemented after the start of the Spring Festival trip on January 28 and will end after the end of the Spring Festival trip on March 8. Those who have a negative nucleic acid test certificate do not need to be quarantined after returning to their hometown, but must undergo a home health check for 14 days and do a good job of controlling the temperature and the symptoms. If it is not necessary, please do not make it go out or collect. You must wear personal protection when you go out. A nucleic acid test was performed on the 7th day and the 14th day.
“I don’t make enough money in a day (to do it once) for nucleic acid,” Li Guilan told the China Times reporter. However, you still understand the requirement for nucleic acid testing. “After I do it, I can be calm and they can be calm.”
The aforementioned travelers to Chengde, Hebei, also brought reports of nucleic acid tests. “My family is in the county and the people who came back said they all went to the test, so I did it first,” he said.
Feelings of reluctance to go home for the New Year.
The reason for the strengthening of prevention and control in rural areas is that the recent outbreak of the epidemic in Shijiazhuang, Hebei province, has revealed major problems in rural areas’ awareness of prevention and control, prevention and control capabilities. The National Health Commission said that, especially during the Spring Festival, the increase in the number of returnees in rural areas and frequent collection activities will increase the risk of the epidemic spreading.
To this end, in addition to proposing to include county and township inpatients in the scope of “due inspections” and implementing “township sampling, county inspections” and other testing requirements, the “Notice” also requires visits weekly to village clinics, clinics and farmers Nucleic acid tests are carried out in public places such as markets, villagers’ activity rooms, chess and card rooms, leisure and entertainment rooms, public baths, children’s homes elderly and nearby airports, and home sampling tests are carried out regularly. In addition, rural pharmacies must also establish real-name registration accounts for the sale of anti-fever and anti-infective drugs.
This means that during this Spring Festival, people who return to their places of origin can still stay at home, without walking and making relatives. However, unlike last year, the epidemic broke out during the Spring Festival travel season last year, and many young people working outdoors returned home before learning the severity of the epidemic. And this year, under strict epidemic prevention policies, they may have another option.
“My son is working outside, so I will not return. There are only two people at home, my wife and I, and I have to get tested every 7 days. But after the New Year, I still have to go home!” Lao Zhang He sighed and said that he had been away for more than half a year. First he went to Lanzhou, then he moved to Tianjin, and finally the current boss called him to Beijing for work. There are still several workers in the company who are also going home before the end of the month.
The situation at the construction site where Li Guilan is located is similar. Today, some people rush to work before suspension, and some have started packing up their things and getting ready to go home. Basically, they will leave Beijing before the 25th. They do not know when they can return, it depends on the development of the epidemic.
However, even after going through many hardships, as an ordinary Chinese, coming home for the New Year remains an unforgettable feeling in their hearts. “(Going back) As long as it doesn’t focus on quarantine, it will do. The money for central quarantine is not enough.” Li Guilan said, “I still want to go home after the New Year.”
