Since the first local confirmed case was reported on December 9th, as of 24:00 on the 30th, Xi’an has reported a total of 1,277 local confirmed cases, and more than 150 confirmed cases have been reported for 6 consecutive days. Over the past few days, Xi’an’s epidemic prevention and control measures have been continuously upgraded. What is the current situation of the epidemic? How is the medical treatment progress? Is the material guarantee sufficient? The reporter interviewed many experts and front-line security personnel to interpret these issues.

——What is the current situation of the epidemic situation? Yang Lianchang, a member and deputy director of the Shaanxi Provincial Health Commission, said at a press conference on December 31 that, judging from the current situation, the number of positives detected in large-scale nucleic acid screening in recent days has remained high. Cases still account for a certain proportion, and the risk of community transmission still exists.

“It can be said that the local epidemic in Xi’an is still at a critical stage of stalemate and confrontation. We must strengthen our confidence, grit our teeth, and take more resolute measures to control the spread of the epidemic as soon as possible, and there must be no slackness or paralysis.” Yang Lianchang said.

Other existing confirmed cases have been admitted and treated in isolation in a number of designated hospitals for new coronary pneumonia. Zhang Fenghu, Deputy Secretary-General of the Xi’an Municipal Government, said that Xi’an has successively transferred medical staff from the First Affiliated Hospital of Xi’an Jiaotong University, the Second Affiliated Hospital of Xi’an Jiaotong University, Shaanxi Provincial People’s Hospital and other hospitals to form critical care teams and general medical teams to station at designated locations. The hospital ensures that every patient can be treated in a timely and effective manner.

“At present, although the number of new cases per day in our city is still at a high level, various mechanisms have become smoother, prevention and control measures have become more and more precise, and the effects are gradually showing.” Zhang Fenghu said.

——Is the material guarantee sufficient? On the 27th, Xi’an once again upgraded the level of epidemic prevention and control, and began to implement the most stringent control measures. Non-epidemic prevention and control and people’s livelihood protection vehicles are not allowed on the road. In this context, in order to ensure the supply of daily necessities for the residents of the city, starting from the evening of the 28th, Xi’an has launched a centralized distribution of free daily necessities for citizens.

As of noon on the 31st, the unified distribution of daily necessities in Xi’an has been smooth as a whole. However, citizens in some areas have not yet received the vegetables, and some areas have not yet begun to deliver the vegetables due to poor transportation and other reasons. The reporter learned from many districts and counties in Xi’an that due to road transportation, delivery order, personnel deployment and other reasons, the time it takes for residents of each community to receive materials will vary.

In fact, Xi’an municipal level reserves and supplies of various materials are still relatively sufficient. As the largest agricultural product distribution center in Northwest China and a national-level southern vegetable northern transportation supply base, the Western Xinqiao Agricultural Products Logistics Center supplies more than 90% of Xi’an’s vegetables and more than half of meat.

According to the person in charge of Xinqiao Market, since Xi’an imposed strict control on vehicle travel on the 27th, the total amount of vegetables entering the market every day has been reduced by 20% compared to before, but the current inventory can still maintain residents’ demand for three to five days.
