BEIJING/SHANGHAI- On Sunday, China’s Cabinet announced that workers in major industries must be aided to return to work as soon as possible so that production of vital food and medical supplies can be resumed post disruption from the coronavirus outbreak.
A special coronavirus group from the State Council ordered a coordinated approach from railways, airlines and other public transport to minimise disease transmission risk.
The screening procedures’ coverage and speed will also be expanded.
In addition to the above, workers are also instructed to resume work in “batches” as opposed to all at once, to reduce the risk of infection.
