Chen Zhaoshi said today (21st) in the TV program "Da Ming Da Fang" that based on factors such as the number of community infections in the fifth wave of the epidemic, the vaccination rate, the number of deaths and severe cases, it is estimated that the community has built a natural immune barrier.

However, as social distancing measures are gradually relaxed, there may be some rebounds or small fluctuations. When the policy is relaxed, citizens gather more often or are exempted from wearing masks, and there is a certain risk of infection. We call on citizens to conduct daily activities, especially those who do not wear masks. The activities should be shortened as much as possible, and we should understand that there is a need to return to normal.

Chen Zhaoshi estimated that the community has built a natural immune barrier, but emphasized that with the relaxation of epidemic prevention measures, a sixth wave cannot be ruled out, and it should not be taken lightly.

Chen Zhaoshi pointed out that at this stage, it is still necessary to strictly observe the import prevention measures. Regarding the suggestion that the flight circuit breaker mechanism should be cancelled, she believes that if there are too many cases in a certain place or flight, the risk of outbreak or community infection will increase.

While resuming exchanges, more attention should be paid to the monitoring of different aspects. The authorities will conduct genetic sequencing analysis for each imported case and closely monitor whether the new variant virus has entered the community.
