Why are the "lockdowns" in the three places in Hebei different from those in Wuhan? What are the differences between the two places?

As the New Year approaches, an epidemic suddenly breaks out in Hebei, and a large number of people are confirmed to be infected. For a while, many people are worried that Hebei will become the second Wuhan, because this outbreak is somewhat similar to Wuhan. However, the timing of the outbreak is relatively similar, and the virus has been spreading quietly for some time, making people worried that the epidemic will be out of control. In fact, judging from the country's current testing methods and control measures, this kind of worry is unnecessary. The epidemic in Hebei is very different from that in Wuhan. The epidemic in Hebei is controllable. The difference between the epidemics in Hebei and Wuhan

On January 12, relevant departments decided to close the cities of Shijiazhuang, Xingtai, and Langfang. People in these areas are not allowed to go out unless necessary. This is very difficult for the epidemic. The control helps a lot. Compared with Wuhan, the closed areas in Hebei are much smaller, and the epidemic is mainly concentrated in these areas. Small-scale outbreaks occurred in these areas. However, the epidemic situation in Wuhan was relatively severe at the time, and the scope of confirmed cases was very wide, making it difficult to report the epidemic in a short period of time. As a last resort, Wuhan was put under complete lockdown.

There are big differences between the epidemic in Hebei and Wuhan. The epidemic in Hebei is better controlled. In the early days of the new coronavirus outbreak, we lacked detection methods, insufficient experience in dealing with the epidemic, and insufficient supplies. The tension has made it more difficult to control the epidemic in a timely manner. Now our testing methods are mature and supplies are sufficient. After the outbreak in Hebei, large-scale nucleic acid testing was organized locally, and people in key areas were under closed management. It was easier to find the source of infection and figure out the infection path.

Although it will take some time to eliminate the epidemic in Hebei, the cold winter will soon pass, and the arrival of spring will also bring benefits to the control of the epidemic. At this critical moment, we still have to Strictly prevent and control the epidemic, do your personal duties well, do not take the epidemic lightly, and actively cooperate with the national epidemic prevention policy.
