The Federal Government of Nigeria has announced that it has intensified surveillance at international airports, asking travellers to fill health forms, in addition to checking their temperature, in response to the surge in the spread of COVID-19. It also decides that Nigeria will not spontaneously ban travellers from China from entering the country, which I believe would be highly appreciated by the Chinese investors who are expected to come to Nigeria one after another.
Third, China’s effective epidemic prevention has bought itself a critical window opportunity to build up a relatively solid immunity barrier. As of January 4, 2023, a total of 3.48 billion doses of vaccines had been administered to 1.39886 billion people in China, of which 1.275855 billion had been fully vaccinated, which means 92.9 per cent of the entire population had been covered by vaccination. Such high coverage has effectively reduced the rate of severe cases.
Fourth, China has all along shared information with the international community in a timely, open and transparent manner. China shared the genome sequence of the virus at the earliest opportunity, making important contributions to the drug and vaccine research and development in countries around the world. China has carried out over 60 technical exchanges with the World Health Organization over the past three years, including four in the last month alone.
China is well prepared, and its move of COVID-19 control measures is by no means passive or laissez-faire. Entering a new phase of COVID-19 prevention and control, China is closely watching the features of the virus to keep abreast of the situation. At present, China’s COVID-19 situation is improving and some provinces and cities have gone through the infection peak, where life and work are coming back to normal at a faster pace.
