There will be no holiday for Qingming Festival in 2022. Many units, enterprises and schools have already announced holiday arrangements, and make-up classes and lessons will be required on Saturday, April 2nd. However, some schools in medium- and high-risk areas will be closed, but only on the Qingming Festival, which is April 5th. This leads many students to believe that there is no holiday for Qingming Festival. In fact, there is a holiday for Qingming Festival. Don’t mislead others. Below, Tuliu Xiaobian analyzes the reasons why there will be no holiday for Qingming Festival in 2022 as follows:

1. Reason 1 for no Qingming Festival holiday in 2022: The local epidemic is still developing

As far as the whole country is concerned, the epidemic situation in Shanghai, Hebei Province, Fujian Province and Liaoning Province has developed rapidly in recent days, and the risk of community transmission in the epidemic areas continues to exist. Among them, Jilin Province has reported more than 20,000 cases of infection, with more than 1,000 new cases per day for many consecutive days. In order to prevent and control the epidemic, local schools were closed during the Qingming Festival, but they had to be under lockdown, so it was essentially no holiday.

2. Reason 2 for no Qingming Festival holiday in 2022: I can’t go home even on holiday

Take the local epidemic in Changsha, Hunan as an example. The Qingming Festival room love notice has been announced, but some areas in Changsha have been adjusted to medium-risk areas recently. If you go back to your hometown to worship your ancestors, your health code will turn yellow, and even people in your hometown may not want you to go back, which will increase the pressure on local epidemic prevention and control. Therefore, during this year's Qingming Festival, many people cannot go home even if they have a holiday and need to stay in the city. The areas most affected will definitely be the closed-off areas.

In general, it is not true that there will be no Qingming Festival holiday in 2022, because this is a national unified statutory holiday. The reason why some children do not take holidays may be due to many factors such as the school only giving one day off and not being able to go home during the holidays.
