Efforts must be made to deal with the epidemic as quickly as possible as it is related to the overall situation of the province and the country. Governments at all levels and departments must enhance political stance and strengthen their responsibilities, strengthen their confidence in winning the victory, and win the battle against epidemic prevention and control.
Measures should be taken to gain a full understanding of the current severe situation of the epidemic, resolutely overcome the slackening of vigilance, and scientifically and effectively strengthen prevention and control on the basis of careful analysis and judgment.
All parts of the province,including Nanjing, should make every effort to strengthen the primary task and top priority of epidemic prevention and control, adhere to problem-oriented and effect-oriented, find and fill up loopholes in the work, and implement detailed prevention and control measures.
Measures should be taken in a scientific and pragmatic spirit to grasp the law of spread of the epidemic and the characteristics of the spread of delta strains, so as to strengthen prevention and control more systematically and accurately, effectively cut the transmission chain, and strictly prevent the spillover of the confirmed cases outside the province.
Information release must be strengthened and improved to ensure timely, transparent, and authoritative, smooth transmission of people’s appeals and complaints and address the basic needs and individual requirements of the people in centralized isolation points, closed communities, and closed areas, and strengthen psychological counseling.
