Xintai city, Tai 'an canceled the sacrificial activities such as lighting on the 15th day of the first month.

Cancel the sacrificial activities such as lighting on the fifteenth day of the first month! Taian issued an important reminder! Epidemic prevention and fire prevention, civilized holidays!

Dear citizens and friends,

Tomorrow is the Lantern Festival. The traditional way of offering sacrifices to ancestors and setting off firecrackers not only wastes money and pollutes the environment, but also has hidden dangers of fire safety, which is not conducive to epidemic prevention and control. At present, epidemic prevention and control has entered a critical period. In order to reduce the gathering and flow of people and ensure the health and life safety of the general public in the city, we hereby remind you as follows:

First, change ideas. Good health is the greatest happiness, and the well-being of the younger generation is the best comfort to the ancestors. Sacrifice is absent-minded. Protecting your health is the greatest responsibility to your family and society, and it is also the best comfort to the deceased. Citizens and friends should change their ideas, overcome paralysis and luck, and earnestly improve their awareness of self-protection.

Second, it is forbidden to go out and gather. Pay attention to the transfer from on-site physical sacrifice to spiritual inheritance, take family memorial service and other ways to mourn and cherish the memory of the old friend, and pay homage in a healthy and civilized way. The city's funeral parlours, cemeteries, rural public welfare forests and scattered burial sites canceled lighting and other sacrificial activities on the fifteenth day of the first month. The entrance to each village will be strictly controlled, and people are strictly prohibited from entering and leaving to prevent cross-infection caused by people gathering.

Third, do a good job in forest fire prevention. Farmers' friends should prohibit the use of fire in the wild, such as burning wasteland and burning weirs. Forest residents should actively cooperate with forest fire prevention personnel, publicize and guide relatives not to enter the forest area, and put an end to forest fire hazards.

It is urgent to prevent and control the epidemic; Everyone is responsible for forest fire prevention. Thank you for your understanding and support. Let's join hands to win this battle without smoke and contribute to building our happy home! I wish you a happy Lantern Festival, good health and a happy family!
