As the New Year draws to a close, the Wuhan pneumonia (novel coronavirus disease, COVID-19) outbreak in China continues to expand. Following the “state of war” in Beijing’s Shunyi district and the “state of emergency” in other districts, officials announced today that Beijing will suspend approval of large-scale performances during the two festivals (New Year’s Day and Spring Festival), prompting Chinese netizens to wail.
The 193rd press conference on the prevention and control of the Wuhan pneumonia epidemic in Beijing was held today, and Zhou Weimin, a first-class inspector of the Beijing Municipal Culture and Tourism Bureau, said that the city’s parks, performance venues and theaters will be strictly limited in their management, strengthen time-sharing reservations and stagger peak hours, and suspend the approval of large-scale business performances held during the two festivals, as the Chinese media reported.
In this regard, Chinese netizens have wailed, “two festivals is including the Spring Festival? Then the Spring Festival Gala will not bring the audience this year?” The Chinese netizens have wailed, “The movie tickets I bought can still be watched normally?” The Chinese netizens are wailing, “The Chinese New Year is a bust”, “I have a feeling that I might not be able to go home for the New Year”, “Is there a difference between a large performance event and a large conference? Many units in Beijing are having national offline meetings”, and others pointed out, “I hope it will be implemented nationwide, or else others will continue in another place”, “Let’s cancel the New Year’s Eve concert”, “The Spring Festival Gala The cancellation is good”, “live well in order to have a long future”.
