These preventive measures will be set in strict accordance with the city’s epidemic prevention and control policies to stop the spread of the disease now that touristic activities will resume in Beijing. Xu Hejian, the spokesperson of the Beijing municipal government, stated the following during a press briefing:
With the increasing mobility of people and gatherings, the risk of the spread of the virus also increases. Beijing must not allow any slackening in epidemic prevention and control.
