Wu Zunyou said not to travel across provinces and regions during Qingming period. What is the epidemic situation now?

On April 5, 2022, it was in Tomb-Sweeping Day. People usually go to worship their ancestors and sweep graves in Tomb-Sweeping Day to commemorate their ancestors. Moreover, this is an activity of the Chinese nation for thousands of years, and many people will go back to their hometown to worship their ancestors even in other places. It is spring in Tomb-Sweeping Day. The sunshine is just right and the flowers are charming. Many people rush to go out for an outing, and some even travel across provinces. However, when the epidemic situation in the whole country is very serious, Wu Zunyou reminded everyone that it is best not to go out for an outing across provinces during Tomb-Sweeping Day, because the epidemic situation is very serious everywhere, especially in Shanghai.

On April 1 day, 2022, China CDC held a press conference. At the meeting, Wu Zunyou said that it is not recommended to do any cross-provincial outing when you are in Tomb-Sweeping Day. If you want to go for an outing, it is best to be in the province or the city, and you must determine your destination in advance. Have a basic understanding of the destination, especially the epidemic situation, and check in advance.

For those cases without epidemic, you can go to road trip. If you must take transportation, you must do personal protection, wear masks, do personal hygiene, wash your hands frequently, and keep a certain social distance from others. For those traditional sacrificial activities, Wu Zongyou also said that if you need to travel across provinces, you are strongly discouraged from doing this traditional activity. You can make use of the current electronic technology or high technology to make sacrifices in the virtual world of the network.

Moreover, for those non-essential cross-provincial sacrificial activities, we should also do personal protection and have a basic understanding of the epidemic situation around the cemetery, including the provisions on cemetery management. When taking transportation, you should keep a certain social distance from others when offering sacrifices. After entering the cemetery, you should also abide by the local arrangements for epidemic prevention and control. In short, in the case of a very serious epidemic situation in various places, it is best for everyone not to add chaos to the epidemic situation and not to go out unless necessary.
