Many express delivery workers in Shanxi tested positive. What warning does this incident give us?

Shanxi found multiple positive cases during daily inspections of the express delivery industry. Currently, relevant personnel of this brand of express delivery have been quarantined as required. This incident has given us the following warnings.

1. The epidemic will not end in the short term. Epidemic prevention and control work must be normalized and not relaxed. This round of epidemic in Shanxi occurred within the scope of Taiyuan City. In early April, people who returned to Shanxi from Hebei and Shanghai were investigated. There are many confirmed cases, and the source of infection and transmission chain in the express delivery industry are still unclear. However, most express delivery industries have been suspended since the outbreak in April. Citizens reported that only Yunda Express showed normal operation and delivery during this period. This has also become a fragile link in Taiyuan City's epidemic prevention and control work. Therefore, the illegal operation of epidemic-related express delivery companies is a key factor leading to the outbreak. This also warns us that we cannot take our epidemic prevention and control work lightly, let alone provide some industries with Special convenience, especially the prevention, control and disinfection work in the express delivery industry cannot be relaxed. Once relaxed, it will lead to the spread of the epidemic on a large scale.

2. The source of infection in the express delivery industry is currently unclear. All the newly confirmed cases are logistics park workers, and there are no doubts about the cases’ travel trajectories. Therefore, the possibility of human-to-human transmission by express delivery cannot be ruled out. , it is possible that contact with express delivery in medium and high-risk areas may lead to personal infection. This also warns us that we must pay attention to the channel of "material-to-human transmission". When sending and receiving express mail, we must strictly follow the disinfection process. Practitioners must conduct nucleic acid tests regularly, and the receiving customer must pick up the package. You must avoid peak periods of people flow, and do not take outer packaging home, let alone buy express packages from medium- and high-risk areas, and wear a mask and wash your hands frequently when picking up packages.

3. At present, nucleic acid testing has been carried out throughout Shanxi. However, due to the particularity of the express delivery industry, the risk of cross-infection at the terminal outlets cannot be ruled out. Therefore, this incident also warns us that the end of the express delivery industry must operate in accordance with regulations. , to avoid mixing multiple express packages together to increase the risk of transmission.
