How many days will it take for Shanghai to be unsealed in 2022? Which communities have been unsealed now? Attached is the latest official news

Starting from the 21st, the entire city of Shenzhen resumed normal working order, which means that all previously announced closed management measures in all communities have been lifted. Prior to this, Shanghai had closed several communities one after another due to this round of local epidemic. How many days will it take for Shanghai to be unsealed in 2022? Which communities have been unsealed now? The latest official news is as follows:

1. How many days will it take for Shanghai to be unsealed in 2022?

It is estimated that it will take another 7-15 days for some communities in Shanghai to unseal during this round of epidemic, and the full unsealing will not take place until early to mid-April. The specific situation will depend on the number of confirmed cases in your community. Because the situation in each closed community in Shanghai is different, follow-up screening will be carried out based on different situations and the community will only be unsealed if the conditions for unsealing are met. According to the latest response from the Shanghai Epidemic Prevention Office, the authoritative answer to when the closed screening of key areas that began on March 16 will be lifted is as follows:

1. First, after two nucleic acid tests are completed in key areas within 48 hours, the risk of further spread of the epidemic is comprehensively studied based on the number of cases and asymptomatic infections screened in the area, as well as the time, space and population distribution characteristics, and the prevention and control measures are dynamically adjusted.

2. Secondly, streets with low epidemic risk where the secondary screening results are double negative will be unsealed.

3. Thirdly, for towns and villages where cases or asymptomatic infections are found through screening but the regional epidemic risk is relatively low, the remaining areas will be unsealed based on the grid principle for the people and residences related to the cases.

4. Fourth, for streets with a large number of cases or asymptomatic infections found during screening and with higher regional epidemic risks, in order to discover the source of infection as early as possible and block the spread of the epidemic as early as possible, after research and evaluation, it is necessary to conduct full-scale screening in the street again.

2. Which communities in Shanghai will be unsealed in 2022?

Recently, many areas in Shanghai were unsealed for a short period of time. After the last round of closed management, some communities such as Chunshen Jingcheng and Hebei New Village were opened for a short time for those communities where the results of two rounds of nucleic acid screening were negative, taking into account the actual needs of residents for daily necessities. However, after discovering the relevant situation, the district's prevention and control headquarters immediately stopped it and required the entire district to continue to strictly strengthen lockdown management and actively ensure the supply of daily necessities for residents.

1. No. 920 Tingyue Road, Huinan Town, Pudong New Area is unblocked

In accordance with the relevant requirements of the State Council’s joint prevention and control mechanism and the confirmed cases announced today, the Office of the Municipal COVID-19 Prevention and Control Leading Group has decided to list No. 920 Tingyue Road, Huinan Town, Pudong New Area as a medium-risk area from March 16, and relevant areas have implemented control measures.

3. When will the closed communities in Shanghai be gradually unsealed? Attached is the latest official news

On March 21, 2022, Shanghai held a press conference on the city's epidemic prevention and control work. At the meeting, Wu Jinglei, director of the local Health Commission, said that based on the screening results from the 16th to the 20th, follow-up screening would be carried out according to different situations based on analysis and judgment. For towns and streets where positive infections are reported, timely epidemiological investigation and screening will be carried out to identify close contacts and secondary close contacts. At the same time, the residential area where the person lives will be controlled and screened. If positive cases are still reported in the community, the building where the positive case is located will continue to be controlled, and control of other buildings will be lifted. For streets and towns where complex situations may arise, timely assessments should be made based on the specific circumstances and targeted measures should be taken.

In general, it will take 7-15 days for Shanghai to unseal some residential communities in 2022, and the only community that has been unsealed now is No. 920 Tingyue Road, Huinan Town, Pudong New Area.
