Hou Youyi is cautious in the face of micro-unsealing Xinbei catering industry is still not open for internal use.

(Taiwan's TB News Network / reporter Sun Yaozhang) the Central epidemic Command Center announced on the 8th that it would be slightly unsealed. New Taipei Mayor Hou Youyi announced on the 9th that the implementation of the guidelines announced by the central government, after actual discussion by the municipal team, is very difficult for many local operators and management units to achieve. During the three-level alert period, the catering industry in New Taipei City is still not open for internal use and will be taken out.

This morning, Hou Youyi once again presided over an ad hoc meeting on whether to unseal or not. Hou Youyi believes that New Taipei City is the hardest hit area, there is still an invisible community transmission chain, and the coverage of vaccines in Taiwan is not enough. moreover, the Huannan market has not yet cleared the unknown source of infection, and the epidemic still needs to be treated more cautiously and strictly. New Taipei City respects the practices of other counties and cities, but in the face of the epidemic, New North still has to face it seriously.

Hou Youyi said that after the actual discussion by the municipal government team on the implementation of the guidelines announced by the central government, it is very difficult for many local operators and management units to achieve, and there will be gaps and comparisons in implementation, but there needs to be consistent standards in implementation. If the implementation cannot be done, it should not be opened up.

The reasons for not opening up include: (1) there is still an invisible transmission chain: Xinbei is a hard-hit area, Shuangbei still has an invisible community transmission chain, the Huannan market has not been cleaned up, the unknown source of infection has not been dealt with, and the epidemic must be treated more cautiously and strictly, respecting the practices of other counties and cities, but in the face of the epidemic, Xinbei still has to face it seriously. (2) it is difficult for the implementation of the central guidelines to meet the guidelines published by the central authorities. After practical discussion, many local operators and management units are unable to do so, and there will be a comparison, but there needs to be a sexual standard in the implementation, and if the implementation is not achieved, it will not be open.

(3) the vaccine coverage rate in Taiwan is not enough: at present, the vaccine coverage rate is still insufficient, and Xinbei is still the hardest hit area in the epidemic area, so we should be careful to take steps step by step, and we must not advance rashly. Therefore, we will adopt the strategy of step by step and step by step. Adjust the strategy according to the situation. During this period of time, the affected operators have really worked hard, but they still hope that it will be difficult for everyone to continue to maintain low-level activities in the face of the epidemic, so as to make the epidemic more stable before we can return to a new type of safe life.

(4) the restaurant is not open for internal use: the New Taipei City takes the maintenance of alert level 3 as the standard, control as the principle, relaxation as the exception, and outdoor as the priority. Except for museums, art parks, open scenic spots, downloading of the number of people, open outdoors, all others are not open.

Hou Youyi said, "Thank you for your hard work. Xinbei still gives priority to epidemic prevention and asks everyone to face difficulties. We will open it in stages and step by step, and conduct a rolling review at any time. "

Hou Youyi, mayor of Xinbei, faced the micro-release with a serious and cautious attitude, announcing that Xinbei restaurant was still not open for internal use. (courtesy of the New Taipei City Government)
