Why is the announcement that some people in Wuhan can leave the city invalid? Why is it ineffective? Here comes the explanation!

As we all know, Wuhan announced the city lockdown on January 23, 2020. It has been nearly a month now, and many Wuhan citizens are still stranded in other places. Therefore, on February 24, Wuhan issued a notice allowing some people to leave the city, but later declared the notice invalid. So what exactly happened? Why is it ineffective? Here comes the explanation!

1. Why is the announcement that some people in Wuhan can leave the city invalid? Why is it ineffective?

On the morning of February 24, Wuhan issued the Notice on Strengthening the Management of Vehicles and Personnel Entering and Leaving Wuhan (No. 17). The provisions of this notice are as follows:

From now on, Wuhan citizens and vehicles stranded in other places can enter the city after completing relevant procedures in accordance with the relevant regulations of the provincial and municipal epidemic prevention and control headquarters. People from other places stranded in Wuhan can leave the city, but they must adhere to the principles of staggered exit and implementation in batches, in a timely, safe and orderly manner.

However, just the day before, on February 23, the central government had just held the largest video conference in history. The theme of this video conference was to coordinate the prevention and control of the new coronavirus epidemic and economic and social development. General Secretary Xi Jinping spoke directly to 170,000 county-level and above cadres across the country.

General Secretary Xi Jinping once again stressed at the meeting the need to resolutely fight the battles to defend Hubei and Wuhan. If Wuhan wins, Hubei wins, and if Hubei wins, the whole country wins. In his speech, he made clear demands: "We must resolutely curb the spread of the epidemic." "We must not relax our efforts to prevent the spread of the epidemic, and continue to implement strict control measures on channels leaving Wuhan and Hubei."

Therefore, on the afternoon of February 24, the Wuhan Municipal COVID-19 Prevention and Control Command issued Notice No. 18, stating that the "Notice on Strengthening the Management of Vehicles and Personnel Entering and Leaving Wuhan City" (No. 17) issued previously (on the morning of the 24th) was issued by the Traffic Control Group under the Municipal Command without the research of the Command and the consent of the main leaders. The notice is now declared invalid.

Notice No. 18 also stated that the relevant personnel had been severely criticized and dealt with. Wuhan City resolutely implements General Secretary Xi Jinping’s important instructions on “preventing the spread of the epidemic abroad”, firmly establishes the idea of ​​a national chess game, strictly manages the channels leaving Wuhan, strictly controls personnel, and strictly prevents the spread of the epidemic.
