What should Chengdu Health and Health Commission do if it encounters an earthquake in the process of epidemic prevention and control?

According to the notification from the epidemic prevention and control headquarters of COVID-19, all residents will stay at home in principle from 0 18 on September 8th.

During the Luding earthquake, many Chengdu residents said that they felt the earthquake and tried to go downstairs to avoid danger. However, due to the requirements of epidemic prevention and control, some residents can't enter and leave their buildings, communities, hotels and other places normally.

In this regard, the front desk staff expressed concern about cross-infection caused by in-house guests going out. The hotel manager in charge of security said that he had received an early warning before the earthquake. According to his experience, he thought that the magnitude was not more than seven, so he decided to invite guests to stay in the room.

On the evening of September 5th, the Chengdu Municipal Health and Health Commission replied to the question "What should I do if I encounter an earthquake during the epidemic prevention and control period?" It said that during the epidemic prevention and control period, when disasters such as earthquakes, fires and floods endanger the lives of citizens, priority should be given to ensuring the safety of citizens. When conditions permit, individuals should take preventive measures to evacuate safely. When taking refuge, gathering and contact should be minimized. After the disaster in high-risk places is over, it is necessary to do a good job in the risk assessment of epidemic spread in time and do a good job in subsequent disposal.

In addition, the Southern Reporter noticed that if it is near the epicenter, the requirements for emergency hedging are different. On September 5th, the Seismological Bureau of Sichuan Province issued a reminder that people near the epicenter should not return to their rooms immediately, pay attention to strong aftershocks, landslides and rolling stones, and pay attention to safety.
