Zhang Meixiong, the founder of the People's Livelihood Roundtable, said that most of the survey respondents were working people and parents over the age of 18, and the results showed that most people agreed with the need to suspend classes and work from home.
He believes that after Omicron has flowed into the community, the government should take long-term pain rather than short-term pain, and arrange emergency measures to suspend classes and work from home as soon as possible.
Zhang Meixiong pointed out that the development of the epidemic in the next two days is particularly important. He believes that the government should not only ban dine-in in the evening market, and make small repairs to deal with the epidemic.

Another promoter, Zhang Zhanpeng, said that the flight attendant as the source of Omicron has spread to the fourth generation, which shows that its spread is fast.
He mentioned that nearly half of the respondents were not teaching staff and civil servants, but some common industries such as finance and catering. They all agreed that it was necessary to suspend classes and work from home to reduce the flow of people in the market and the number of people riding in the bus during peak hours. , thereby reducing the possibility of infection.
He mentioned that many epidemic prevention experts have mentioned that there is now a fifth generation of transmission, and the number of cases of unknown origin has also increased.
However, children under the age of 12 have not yet been vaccinated against the epidemic, and their awareness of epidemic prevention is relatively low. Zhang Zhanpeng believes that the government should suspend classes in kindergartens, primary schools, and schools for children with physical and intellectual disabilities in the first stage, and switch to online teaching Or take the New Year's holiday earlier to prepare for the early resumption of classes in the future; and for staff who need to take care of children, he believes that the government and private institutions should also cooperate and allow them to work from home.
