The new crown pneumonia epidemic has eased in recent days. The government has repeatedly urged citizens to continue to reduce their outings. However, during the Lunar New Year holiday, citizens will inevitably have New Year greetings or go out for fun.

Respiratory specialist Liang Zichao said today (15th) that although the epidemic began to ease before the new year, it is still "rampant" and not very stable. It is expected that the epidemic may rebound, around the 8th and 9th (19th and 20th) We see an increase in the number of cases, but the magnitude depends on the gathering situation in the next few days and whether there will be confusion after the relaxation of social measures.

During the Lunar New Year, crowds can be seen from time to time, and people are also coming to visit the New Year.

Liang Zichao said that the rebound after the holiday is expected. Even if the number of confirmed diagnoses drops before the New Year, the situation has been "rampant" recently and has not yet reached a stable stage. It is estimated that the rebound will begin to occur around the eighth or ninth day.

As for the magnitude of the rebound, he said that it depends on the gathering of people in the next few days, especially the seventh day (18th) the government will relax evening dine-in meals and reopen some places.

Although the evening market has not yet been opened, many people take out Poon Choi for the New Year.

Regarding whether there will be a "side-cooking group" when eating Poon Choi, Liang Zichao said that Poon Choi itself is not particularly high-risk, but since everyone takes off their masks and eats at close range, they are more likely to be exposed to droplets.

He continued that although some families may use public chopsticks, they should be reminded that everyone should have a pair of public chopsticks, and not all people should only share one pair, otherwise the hands may come into contact with other people's droplets.

The government requires that in places where restrictions are about to be relaxed, such as restaurants, all staff must be tested regularly.

Liang Zichao said that there was already a crowd at the testing station yesterday, and he believed that the government should increase testing places and strengthen testing capabilities to make it easier for the public to receive testing, so as to avoid delays in diagnosis.

As for whether the relaxation will cause the epidemic to rebound even more, Liang Zichao said that the reopening of the evening market is not a problem, but if the restaurants are too crowded and even "retaliatory" consumption occurs, the flow of people will increase, and the risk will be greater. "Travel with peace of mind" and other programs, but due to the delay in the diagnosis time, citizens who enter and exit the same place have also visited other places before being notified. They believe that the program has little effect and hope that there will be no confusion when the place is reopened, and the government is recommended While waiting for the epidemic to be relatively stable, consider whether to further deprive the remaining premises.
