Chinese Vice Premier Sun Chunlan has urged vigilance and persistence in epidemic control in northwest China’s Shaanxi Province, which is experiencing a COVID-19 resurgence. Sun, also a member of the Political Bureau of the Communist Party of China Central Committee, made the remarks while researching and directing the anti-epidemic work in the province’s capital city of Xi’an, and Xianyang.
Sun visited communities, hospitals, quarantine sites, emergency centers and supermarkets to learn about closed-off management, medical service and supply of necessities. Sun noted the sharp decline in Xi’an’s new COVID-19 cases, but warned that the epidemic containment is still at a crucial stage, and the situation must not be taken lightly. – Xinhua
