Wu Liangyou, deputy director of the National Health Commission’s Bureau of Disease Control and Prevention, said at the meeting that currently, the global COVID-19 epidemic is still at a high level. The virus continues to mutate, and the risk of overseas epidemics being imported into my country continues to exist. Only by guarding against "external defense" will there be no internal rebound.

If we find an epidemic, we will eliminate it completely to ensure that everyone has a healthy and safe holiday.
