Proposal on Newly Held Marriage, Simple Funeral and Suspension of Celebration

Recently, novel coronavirus epidemic broke out in many places in China, and the transmission chain has spread to 33 prefecture-level cities in 15 provinces, and many cluster epidemics have occurred. This round of epidemic virus spread quickly, with strong infectivity and long recovery period, and the situation of epidemic prevention and control in the city is very severe. In order to prevent the input of epidemic situation, avoid crowd gathering, prevent cross-infection and ensure people's life, health and safety, Tangshan Civilization Office now proposes the following measures:

1. Marriage is the most important happy event in life, and we must never leave regrets because of the epidemic. Therefore, it is suggested that from now on, the wedding should be postponed to effectively reduce the risk of epidemic spread. Weddings that really cannot be postponed should be simplified as much as possible, personal protection should be done well, and the scope of participants should be controlled in strict accordance with the requirements of epidemic prevention and control in our city. Newcomers who apply for marriage registration advocate "non-essential, postponement", advocate telephone appointment, follow-up and leave, shorten the detention time and avoid getting together for marriage registration.

second, advocate a simple funeral. More filial piety is better than sweeping the grave. It is necessary to establish a new concept of caring deeply, burying thinly, mourning briefly and offering sacrifices simply, and do more filial piety and simplify mourning. We advocate one-day settlement, control the scale of funeral treatment, reduce the gathering of people, and do not engage in gathering activities such as centralized memorial service, collective farewell, and centralized dining. Advocate remote video sacrifices from relatives and friends in different places, and try not to pay homage at the scene. We advocate the adoption of new ways to pay homage to and cherish the memory of our ancestors, such as online memorial service and small-scale family memorial service, so as to reduce the risks brought by the gathering of people in the field.

third, advocate that the celebration be suspended. During the severe situation of epidemic prevention and control, it is proposed to stop all kinds of birthday, housewarming, full moon, betrothal and other party activities, and instead express blessings by telephone, WeChat and other forms to prevent the spread of the epidemic caused by the gathering and flow of people.

Fourth, party member cadres take the lead in setting an example. The broad masses of cadres in party member should give full play to their vanguard and exemplary role, take the lead in observing the regulations on epidemic prevention and control, and take the lead in driving their families and people around them to strictly implement scientific and effective prevention and control measures; Take the lead in policy propaganda and public opinion guidance, so as not to spread rumors, not to believe rumors, and not to spread rumors; Actively persuade and urge relatives and friends to postpone the new wedding ceremony, make the funeral simple and quick, and stop the celebration.

it is everyone's responsibility to prevent and control the epidemic. I hope that the general public and friends will actively respond to the call, start from me, start from now on, postpone the new marriage, simplify the funeral and stop the celebration, do a good job in epidemic prevention and control with practical actions, and contribute to the city's epidemic prevention and control.
