Different provinces, cities and regions in China are entering the COVID-19 epidemic stages at different times, according to Wu Zunyou, chief epidemiologist of the Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention on Thursday.
In areas with large and dense populations, such as major and medium-sized cities, the local epidemic progresses through its stages more quickly than it does in small and medium-sized cities, and rural areas, said Wu.
The Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region, the Chengdu-Chongqing region, and some provinces in central China, have seen local epidemics develop early, he illustrated, adding places like Beijing, Tianjin, and Chengdu may have gone through the peak stage of the epidemic.
The Spring Festival holiday – which is a traditional mobility peak period in China – is approaching, and the situation of COVID-19 might be more complicated, Wu said.
Localities are closely monitoring the COVID-19 situation, trying their best to minimize the impact of the epidemic peak on people's work and life, he said.
